Radon Mitigation in Scarborough, Maine

Peace of Mind for a Healthy Home:

Living in Scarborough, Maine, a homeowner recently learned about the long-term health effects of radon gas exposure. Prioritizing the well-being of their family, they proactively contacted Maine Radon & Water Treatment to ensure their indoor air quality was safe. Their newly built home in 2018 included a basement, prompting them to schedule a radon test for added peace of mind.

Expert Evaluation and Customized Solutions:

Our team of radon specialists responded promptly, conducting a thorough radon test in the homeowner's basement. The results indicated a level of 4.1 pCi/L, exceeding the EPA's recommended action level of 4 pCi/L. This finding necessitated further action to safeguard the homeowner's family.

Working with Existing Systems:

Following a comprehensive inspection of the home, our installers discovered an existing passive radon system. To optimize its effectiveness, we assessed accessibility – the radon pipe was readily accessible via a hatch in the garage and vented through the roof. Collaboration was key – the homeowner's electrician agreed to install a dedicated outlet to power the system. While the homeowner opted against additional crack sealing for the time being, we recommended and installed a manometer in the basement to monitor the system's negative pressure, a crucial indicator of proper radon mitigation.

Efficient Installation and Verification:

Our team efficiently installed a radon fan to actively draw radon gas out of the home. To confirm the system's effectiveness, we provided the homeowner with a follow-up test kit. This commitment to verification ensures long-term peace of mind for the homeowner and their family.

Client Satisfaction – A Job Well Done:

The homeowner expressed sincere satisfaction with Maine Radon & Water Treatment's approach. Our comprehensive service, from initial inquiry to expert installation and post-installation testing, instilled confidence and ensured a safe and healthy living environment for their family.
