A homeowner in Salem, MA recently detected radon gas levels of 5 pCi/L in their home, surpassing the Environmental Protection Agency’s recommended threshold for installing a radon mitigation system. Radon, a hazardous gas originating from the soil beneath a home’s foundation, can infiltrate basements and pose serious health risks, including respiratory issues and lung cancer. Concerned for their family’s well-being, especially given the significant time spent in their finished basement, the homeowner reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions. We promptly installed a radon mitigation system and sealed all cracks and cold joints, effectively preventing radon intrusion. Now, the homeowner can have peace of mind knowing their family is safeguarded from the dangers of radon gas.
