Two-Point Radon Mitigation System for Renovated Garage Space

As the homeowner renovates their garage into a livable space, radon protection became a priority. Testing showed the need for a two-point extraction system, with one vertical extraction point near the breaker panel and a second horizontal point under the slab to the right. While there is no warranty due to an adjacent mudroom with a footer we can’t address (about 25’ x 8’), the system is designed to significantly reduce radon levels and maintain safer air quality throughout the home. By using proven radon remediation methods, we’re helping this family safeguard their new living space while balancing efficiency and practicality. They also used financing on this one which was a great option for budget options!

Will a Radon Mitigation System Appraise My Home's Value?

This client is preparing to sell their home, knew that high radon levels could attract potential buyers as per recent real estate articles. He knew he had radon but only made the decision today as it helps a property's image to be sold. He also had a home inspection, which advised the same thing. He requested a simple system since his home had an inaccessible crawlspace to begin with. The team installed the system on each side of the block wall in the basement, connected together to go out the patio. It has been proven that a radon mitigation system increases the home's value and attracting more offers.

This will be a 2-point system one of which is running from the sump in the utility room. A line that needs to be run to the other side of the utility room and through the joists on the right hand side. Rusty - Team Leader did let the homeowner know that worst case scenario we might need to cut through the drywall in order to fasten the pipe. The homeowner said that it would be fine as he had a drywall coming to finish part of his house in a few weeks. This client was really fun to work with, he was really flexible and understood what's best for his home even if it comes with additional extractions to install his system.

This client was diagnosed with lung cancer and is very vulnerable to harmful environmental pollutants since a portion of his lung was removed last month. With radon being a cause of lung cancer, he made sure his two-chamber home was protected for his health. He is a possible radon advocate as he shared with us his journey on how his situation has come to. Very beautiful family! 

This installation was for a young couple that bought their first home. The amazing thing about their story is they had it tested for radon first before moving in. The results turned in 5.5 pCi/L and the home was just built early this year. They wanted the system to be installed in the basement since it's still in the process of finishing. It was not that hard and everything went well!
