Passive-to-Active Radon System Conversion Completed in Falls Village
Before
The home had a passive radon system installed during construction, but the piping was not fully routed through the roof. With a radon reading of 6.4 pCi/L, the system needed to be completed and prepared for active operation.
After
The radon piping was extended through the attic and routed through the roof to complete the system. The installation is ready for the electrical connection and fan activation once the homeowner's electrician completes the required outlet.
One-Point Radon Mitigation System Installed in Pequabuck
Before
The home had a measured radon level of 4.1 pCi/L, slightly above the EPA's recommended action level of 4.0 pCi/L. A mitigation system was needed to address the elevated reading.
After
The one-point radon mitigation system was installed with a Hawk fan and exterior piping routed along the right side of the home. The installation was completed without any reported changes or unusual conditions. A follow-up radon test is recommended to confirm the system's effectiveness.
Radon System Service in Falls Village
Before
The home had an existing radon mitigation system with a Festa Hawk fan scheduled for service.
After
The radon system service was completed with no reported changes or unusual findings.
Two-Point Radon Mitigation System Completed in Falls Village
Before
The home had an elevated radon level of 5.7 pCi/L and needed a mitigation system to address the main foundation and crawl space. The basement and crawl space areas were evaluated to determine suitable extraction points and piping routes.
After
A two-point radon mitigation system was installed, with one extraction point serving the crawl space and the second serving the main foundation. The exterior piping was routed along the home's exterior and connected to a Festa Hawk fan. This setup allows the system to draw radon from both foundation areas and vent it safely outside.
Two-Point Radon Mitigation System Installed in Westport
Before
The home was testing at 9.1 pCi/L. Built in 1900, the property required a mitigation approach that addressed two separate areas beneath the foundation. There was no sump pump or WaterGuard system to incorporate into the installation.
After
We installed a two-point radon mitigation system with extraction points near the refrigerator and inside the office closet. Both points connect to a Festa Hawk fan, with the exterior vent piping routed along the rear of the home near the AC units and up over the roofline. The two extraction points work together to improve communication beneath the foundation and provide a dedicated route for soil gases to exhaust outdoors. Follow-up radon testing is recommended to confirm the system's effectiveness.
