Radon Mitigation System Effectively Reduces High Levels in Multi-Level Home

When radon levels spiked above 25 in a multi-level home, a three-point system was designed to tackle the issue head on. In the utility room, two extraction points were established—one at the sump and another 10 feet to the right—to ensure thorough air circulation. A third extraction point was cored through the wall and discreetly placed in a bedroom closet, specifically targeting the area enhanced by a recent addition. Although the homeowner was considering Breath EZ and DC systems, she opted for a robust, three-point solution to effectively reduce the high radon levels. This tailored approach not only provided immediate relief but also promised long-term improvements in the overall air quality throughout her home.

Are Radon Mitigation Systems Worth It?

This client was originally thinking about putting a system in a year ago but the contractor was some random company and told them it was a 5-6 month waiting process. Not with us! They also mentioned seeing us at the Iowa State Fair and wanted to give us a shot. They did say we priced higher but also offered other options and a better design based on their radon levels of 15. The installation was 2 point system that will be along wall walking down the stairs. It will then route out an exit through the tiny storage room to the left of the stairs and out the garage in the insert portion towards the back. The client was a super nice guy and wanted pure reassurance that the radon mitigation system is worth. He was happy how everything turned out!

The Radon Solution

This client just wanted an active passive system for her home regardless after testing she had low levels of radon in her home. She wanted to make sure her health and pets are safe from exposure in the future. She believes that radon is unpredictable, you will never know until the level rises and it might be too late.
