What Is Radon Before & After Photos

A Hidden Danger Beneath

This client's ranch home, with its finished basement and dirt crawlspace, harbored an invisible threat: radon levels of 13. The only unfinished area was a small HVAC room, with no sump pit, just a wastewater grinder. The client, already facing a lung mass, needed swift action. Plans were made to install a sub-slab extraction point by the water heater, routing into the crawlspace. The joists could have worked for venting, but the insulation, held by chicken wire mesh, complicated things. Instead, two cores would be drilled through the foundation walls. The client would clear out debris beforehand, and we’d encapsulate the space, setting a second extraction point to vent through the soffit. Everything worked out as planned.

Cole and Jordan installed this ERV for a customer to help lower their radon levels even more, giving them the best air quality possible.

This client had his home radon test return to a level of 10 which alarmed him so much that he immediately made a deposit for his own mitigation system. He is very concerned about the future effects of radon or if it's deemed poisonous at high levels. We definitely explained what he needs to know and set up a plan for his home. Everything went well. 

The clients were former customers of thrasher and they really our quality of service and company standards. His home had really access to the vents and his HVAC system was kind of tight but other than that the cleaning went well. 

This client was planning to have his home renovated but wanted to be protected in the process since it's more of a long-term plan. We were able to explain how the installation would work since he had some hindrances regarding the smart sumps. We were able to draft an ideal design for him and he really liked it. Everything went well!
