Radon Gas Mitigation Photo Album: High Radon Level in Home, Nashua, NH

A homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire, has lived in their home for almost 10 years. Recently their daughter had tested her home for radon water and had to have a radon system installed. This made them think about radon in their own home, so they tested their home and the results came back averaging 30 pCi/L which is high. They reached out to EFS for an inspection of their home to design a radon mitigation for their home. Our Design Specialist Nikki Burke met with the homeowner. She designed a radon mitigation system with two extraction points to lower the radon levels inside the home.  Our installation team created two extraction points and connected those points with a radon pipe that will be fed to the exterior of the home. On the outside of the home, we installed a radon fan and more radon piping to pull radon from below the home and vent it above the home so I could not re-enter the home.  When the system was fully installed we showed the homeowner the system and gave them a charcoal radon test kit to test the levels inside the home after the system had been running for about a week to verify that the levels were lowered.
