A Ranch, a Radon Surprise, and a Plan After years of peaceful living on their scenic acreage, the homeowners were surprised to learn their ranch-style house was reading 12 pCi/L for radon. With four basement chambers, an old sump pit, and a sunroom crawlspace sitting on dirt, it was clear this home needed a customized solution.   The sump—unused but ready—became the first extraction point. The second would go 15 feet away under the porch slab. The third, tucked in a southwest storage closet. Two fans would carry the load: one exiting by the front AC unit, the other discreetly placed behind the home with access from a bedroom closet.   The family had weathered storms with buckets before. Now, with a sump pump, sealed slab, and fully designed radon system—peace of mind is back.

The clients were an elderly couple who had some health concerns. This is a simple radon mitigation system activation as well as a Breathe EZ filter. There is an existing sump in the corner of the basement that runs about 10 ft back and up through the ceiling. Access to the crawl space is in the garage -- where the point would begin. The passive system sits over the client's utility closet. The installation went well. The clients were very accommodating too! They even cooked for the team!

Evelyn first suspected something wasn't right with the air in her house when she realized how often she felt sick while at home. Concerned about her health, the Sidney homeowner contacted us about getting her home tested for radon. Sure enough, the radon level was high. We installed a two-suction point system with exterior aesthetics to reduce Evelyn's radon level without reducing the value of her home. To help ensure that the homeowner stays healthy, we also installed a Breathe EZ air cleaner for better all-around indoor air quality and made sure Evelyn felt comfortable changing her Breathe EZ filter. It's all too easy to forget about your air quality until you feel the negative impacts. Stories like Evelyn's remind us all that the air in our homes directly affects our health. Taking steps toward cleaner air like installing radon mitigation and indoor air quality controls help keep everyone in the house safe and healthy.
