This Naugatuck home already had a mitigation system in place, but with expanding use of the wine cellar and elevated radon levels, we added two key extraction points for increased coverage. Before photos show the original setup, while the after visuals reveal new runs under the stairs and in the wine cellar’s stone-layered floor. The result? Improved system performance and radon draw efficiency across the full lower level.

This home tested at a radon level of 3.5 pCi/L. A radon mitigation pipe was installed along the basement ceiling and routed to the exterior mitigation system, allowing radon gas to be safely vented outside and away from the home.

Before

The basement area had an existing setup with limited coverage, and the original extraction point had not been recently cleaned.

After

The system was improved by cleaning out the existing extraction point and optimizing airflow to support better performance.

Before

The far corner of the basement had no extraction point, leaving part of the space without direct radon coverage.

After

A new extraction point was added in the far corner to improve coverage and overall system effectiveness.

Discover the transformative effect of radon mitigation in a 1975 raised ranch home in Waterbury through our before and after visuals. Initially dealing with a radon level of 7.7, our project involved implementing a radon mitigation system designed to meet the specific challenges of the home, including the lack of a moisture guard. The after photos illustrate the new system in operation, effectively lowering radon levels and ensuring a safer living environment.
