Before, The home, built in 1908 with a tall profile and a fieldstone foundation, presented a few unique installation challenges. With no sump pump, no water guard, and no encapsulation, the system required thoughtful planning. The client, who is moving but will rent the house out, arranged for the back door (not the bilco) to be left unlocked. The installation area was behind the washer, a bit to the right when facing it — on the opposite side of the wall.

 

 

After, A two-pipe radon mitigation system was installed to address the radon level of 13 pCi/L. Due to the tall structure, additional vertical piping was needed to route to the roofline safely and discreetly. The pipes were strategically placed to maintain structural integrity and avoid interference with the washer area. The final system blended into the home’s design while effectively venting radon gases above the roofline, ensuring long-term mitigation for incoming tenants.

Starting with a radon level of 4.1, we installed a mitigation system strategically on the back corner near the sunroom to maximize efficiency and discretion. The after photos illustrate the unobtrusive installation and significant improvement in radon levels, ensuring a healthier living environment for the homeowners.

Before: Incomplete passive system with high radon levels (9.0 pCi/L).
After: Full active radon mitigation system utilizing the existing passive pipe start, routing piping through the Bilco door drywall to connect at the furnace, and installing the fan outside—strategically placed near the water spout while maintaining distance from nearby windows.

Before Installation: The home in Torrington, CT, faced the invisible threat of radon, a common yet hazardous issue in many households. With radon levels above the EPA's recommended safe limit, the homeowners were concerned about long-term health risks and the overall safety of their living environment.

The homeowners can breathe easier, knowing their home is safer and their family's health is protected. This essential upgrade has not only improved their home's air quality but also its value and safety.

Before and after views of our radon mitigation efforts in a Stratford home reveal the effectiveness of our targeted interventions. Starting with a radon level of 6.9, our solution included sealing the sump pump and installing a one-pipe system to the right of the bilco door. The after images highlight the seamless integration of the system, ensuring a safe and radon-free environment for the home's residents.
