Radon Gas Mitigation Before & After Photos

A resident of Essex, MA, had consistently monitored the radon levels in their residence, understanding the detrimental health impacts associated with this invisible gas. Recently, they conducted a radon test, which revealed levels ranging from 4 to 5 picocuries. This measurement aligns with the threshold set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for recommending the installation of a radon mitigation system. Following the receipt of these results, the homeowner contacted us to ensure the safety of their living environment. Installing our radon mitigation system instantly lowered the homeowner's radon levels significantly. They now have peace of mind that they are protected within their own home.

A homeowner in Rye, New Hampshire, recently had their home tested for radon gas, revealing a level of 7 pCi/L. Since levels above 4 pCi/L necessitate the installation of a radon mitigation system, this finding was particularly alarming, given that the homeowner's daughter's bedroom is in the finished basement. To address this urgent health concern, they reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions for the prompt installation of a radon mitigation system to protect their residence.

Our System Design Specialist, Liam FitzPatrick, recommended installing our radon mitigation system, along with our Erickson Care Club service.  The installation team began by creating an extraction point via a small circular cut in the basement's concrete floor for the radon mitigation system. They then attached a radon pipe to this point, extending it to the exterior of the home, where they mounted the radon fan on the side. They routed additional piping from the fan along the side of the house, extending it above the roof to avert radon re-entry. Following the operational integrity test of the fan, the homeowners were given a charcoal test kit to measure the radon levels after about one week.

The installation of the radon mitigation system has safeguarded this family from the hazardous gas.

A homeowner in Rye, New Hampshire, had purchased their home a few months ago. They were concerned with radon in their home so they reached out to EFS for one of our Design Specialists to test for radon and to design a system for them. Our specialist recommended installing a radon mitigation system with 2 extraction points. Our installation team installed the radon system into the home within a couple of hours. After the system was installed and running the radon levels were reduced below the recommended levels provided by the National Radon Defense.

A homeowner in Gloucester, Massachusetts became concerned about the radon levels in their home following an understanding of basement systems. The radon test results indicated levels between 6-9 pCi/L, exceeding the EPA's recommended action level of 4 pCi/L. In an effort to reduce the radon levels, they contacted Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Our Design Specialist, Tom Armano, recommended installing a radon mitigation system with a fan moisture guard and exterior aesthetic package. The installation team initiated the process by creating an extraction point through a small circular opening in the basement concrete floor for the radon mitigation system. A radon pipe was then affixed to this point and extended to the home's exterior, where the radon fan was mounted on the side. Additional piping from the fan was routed alongside the house, extending above the roof to prevent radon re-entry. After testing the fan for operational integrity, the team provided the homeowners with a charcoal test kit to reassess the radon levels after approximately one week.

With the proper precautions now taken, this homeowner has peace of mind that his home is safe from radon.

A homeowner in Gloucester, Massachusetts, had questioned the air quality and humidity in their basement. They reached out to EFS for the service of their existing SaniDry Sedona. Our Service Technician Justin performed the annual service on the SaniDry but had a conversation with the homeowner revealing that they were concerned with the air quality in their home. After a conversation with the homeowner, Justin recommended an ERV system to the homeowner to improve the air quality in their basement.
