Professional Radon Testing & Radon Mitigation in Southport, CT
Experienced radon testing & radon mitigation contractor in Southport
Does your home or property have high radon levels? If levels are above 4 pCi/L (picocuries per liter), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends installing a radon reduction system. As a tasteless, odorless, and invisible gas, radon can only be identified through testing. So if you're not sure about your property, Apex Radon Solutions is the trusted radon mitigation company that can help you answer this question!

While radon is scary all on its own, it isn't the only air pollutant that home and property owners should be aware of. Pollen, pet dander, mold spores, dust buildup, and contaminants trapped inside your HVAC system can cause just as many health issues. And the risk is even higher for those with asthma, respiratory issues, or allergies. That's why Apex Radon Solutions offers quality indoor air quality products and services, including professional air duct cleaning to help remove dust, debris, and allergens from your ductwork and improve airflow throughout your home.

In Southport, the homeowner had been monitoring radon levels averaging between 5 and 10 pCi/L. The home is a Contemporary Cape with a partially finished basement, no crawl space, and no sump pump.
The home already had a radon mitigation system with an older fan that had never been serviced. As noted in the completion notes, the project was completed as a Radon Fan Replacement, upgrading the system with a new fan to restore reliable operation and maintain effective radon reduction.
In Southport, we evaluated a home built around 1946 after radon levels tested at approximately 4.5 pCi/L despite an existing mitigation system already being installed.
The home includes a single cinder block foundation with no crawl spaces, sump systems, or perimeter water management systems affecting the mitigation layout.
The current radon mitigation system was originally installed by a previous homeowner and includes 4-inch piping routed through the basement and upward through the home into the attic space.
The existing fan, however, is currently located within the basement area.
During the consultation, several system improvements were recommended to strengthen long-term performance and improve the overall layout of the mitigation system.
The planned work includes repairing sections of the existing 4-inch basement piping, cleaning out the current extraction point to improve airflow communication beneath the slab, and relocating the mitigation fan from the basement into the attic area where the vent system transitions into 3-inch piping.
Relocating the fan to the attic will help improve overall system configuration while maintaining cleaner airflow management throughout the home.
The project focused on upgrading and refining the existing mitigation system to improve long-term airflow performance and indoor air quality protection throughout the property.
