Radon Mitigation in Chester, NH

A homeowner in Chester, NH wanted to utilize their basement space but was concerned about radon levels in their home. The Environmental Protection Agency considers a space dangerous if radon levels exceed 4 pCi/L, which was the case for this homeowner. Seeking a permanent solution for peace of mind, the homeowner reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

We installed our radon mitigation system by creating an extraction point in the foundation floor and routing PVC pipe from the extraction point to the exterior of the home. We then installed a radon fan to the PVC pipe and extended more PVC pipe above the roofline to safely vent radon away from any entry points of the home. The radon fan actively draws radon from the soil beneath the home’s foundation, ensuring the home is safeguarded.

Post-installation, the homeowner now has peace of mind, especially with the manometer providing a visual confirmation that the system is functioning correctly.
