Radon Mitigation Photo Album: Radon Mitigation System Upgrade and Crawl Space Encapsulation Planned for Litchfield Home
These photos document the existing radon mitigation piping, fieldstone crawl spaces, and areas of exposed soil throughout the Litchfield home. The images show the current extraction setup and the condition of the crawl space ground coverings, helping illustrate where improvements are planned. The project will focus on revising the extraction layout, encapsulating the front two crawl spaces, and addressing the exposed dirt behind the washer and dryer.
Crawl Space Beneath HVAC Ductwork
Existing ductwork runs above the crawl space, where exposed soil and deteriorated ground covering will need attention as part of the planned encapsulation.
Existing Crawl Space Piping and Insulation
View of the crawl space showing existing radon piping, HVAC ductwork, insulation, and areas where the ground covering is incomplete or displaced.
Crawl Space - Exposed Soil and Insulation
This area shows exposed soil, displaced insulation, and existing ductwork beneath the home, highlighting the need for improved crawl space ground coverage.
Fieldstone Crawl Space - Existing Ground Covering
The fieldstone foundation and existing plastic ground covering are visible, along with exposed soil and materials that will be addressed during the planned improvements.
Crawl Space - Existing Conditions
A closer view of the crawl space reveals loose insulation and uneven ground covering around the existing support structure and ductwork.
Crawl Space Encapsulation - Sealed Ground Covering
A section of the crawl space has a ground liner secured around the perimeter with spray foam, helping create a more continuous barrier over the exposed soil.
Existing Radon Fan and Interior Piping
The existing radon fan is installed along the interior piping route, showing part of the system currently serving the home.
New Radon Fan and Vent Pipe - Garage Area
A closer view of the new radon fan and connected piping in the garage area, documenting the current system layout after the planned modifications.
