Before: The home in Norwalk faced significant radon exposure, with a measurement of 5.5 pCi/L. The presence of two different types of crawl spaces added complexity to designing an effective mitigation system. After: The installation of a meticulously designed three-pipe radon mitigation system has significantly lowered radon levels within the home. Each pipe was strategically placed to optimize radon evacuation from the varied foundation types, with external piping routed to minimize visual impact. This setup not only ensures safety but also integrates seamlessly with the home's structure.

View the significant impact of our radon mitigation efforts in a Norwalk cape-style home. Starting with a radon level of 5, our team implemented a dual-pipe system that addresses the unique structural challenges of the property. The after photos showcase the pipes' discreet exit points and the seamless integration within both the finished living space and the external area of the home, ensuring a safe and visually appealing environment.

Before:
The home had no mitigation system in place. The dirt crawl space posed challenges for routing and airflow. No sump cover or encapsulation had been completed yet.

 

After:
We installed a two-pipe cement foundation system through the dirt crawl space, using the available drywall access points. Final cosmetic touches (boxing out the pipe) will be done by the client, making it a smart and budget-conscious solution that prioritizes safety and flexibility.

With a radon level of 4.7 pCi/L, this 1930-built home needed a modern solution that wouldn’t disrupt its original layout. We installed a clean single-pipe system neatly inside the wooden closet, utilizing the existing structure for a streamlined, unobtrusive finish. The result? Lower radon levels and full compliance — without major renovation.

 

The before and after photos highlight the exterior radon mitigation system added to this home. Initial testing showed radon levels at 5.5 pCi/L. Following installation, radon levels were reduced to undetectable, helping protect the home and its occupants.
