Maine Radon & Water Treatment Before & After Photos

A recent home inspection in Fairfield revealed radon levels of 4.1 pCi/L, prompting the buyers to move forward with installing a mitigation system before finalizing their purchase. Wanting a reliable solution, they chose Maine Radon and Water Treatment for their expertise and trusted approach. Our team assessed the home’s poured foundation and designed a system with an RN-2 fan, crushed stone base, and a manometer to ensure proper monitoring. With the system in place, the buyers gained peace of mind moving into their new home with reduced radon risk. If you’re buying or selling a home, contact Maine Radon and Water Treatment to make sure radon doesn’t stand in the way of your plans.

Maine Radon and Water Treatment provided a reliable radon air mitigation solution for a home in Skowhegan, ME, where radon levels ranged from 6.0 to 8.0 pCi/L. After assessing placement options, the system was strategically installed in the master bathroom, leveraging an existing outlet and ensuring a seamless exterior finish. The RN-2 fan and manometer were set up to efficiently reduce radon exposure, enhancing the indoor environment.

Maine Radon & Environmental was called out to this Wiscasset Maine home when clients tested their home for radon. Clients decided to have MRE complete the install due to our willing to locate the system where the customer wants. Being able to locate the radon system next to other components to help it blend in. Another happy client!!

Before:
Loretta S. in Boothbay, Maine had a water test that revealed several concerns affecting overall water quality. The analysis showed:

• Iron: 0.51 mg/L

• Manganese: 0.194 mg/L

• Hardness: 81.4 mg/L (moderately hard water)

While the water was safe in many categories, the iron and manganese levels were beginning to affect water clarity, taste, and could lead to staining over time. Loretta wanted a reliable system that would improve water quality throughout the home.

After:

We installed a 10 x 54 Evolve® Standard Water Softener with Vortech Tank and Sweat Jacket, designed to address hardness and improve overall water performance. The Vortech tank technology helps the system regenerate more efficiently while using less water.

The installation was clean and professionally configured, giving Loretta a modern water treatment system designed for consistent performance and improved water quality throughout her home.

Another Boothbay home now enjoys cleaner, better-performing water with a premium Evolve® system.

Robert T. in Wiscasset, Maine wanted to address multiple water and air quality concerns with a comprehensive solution designed to improve both the home's water supply and indoor environment. Initial testing revealed radon in water at 5,107 pCi/L, along with hard water (51.1 mg/L) and measurable levels of iron and manganese, making this a great candidate for a complete treatment approach.

To address the water concerns, we installed a 99% efficient Repco Cambridge radon-in-water removal system paired with a DAB DTRON2 constant pressure pump, along with a 1.5 cubic foot Evolve EVRS water softener and a 4" x 20" sediment filter. Together, these systems help improve water quality, reduce hardness, and address radon before the water enters the home.

For indoor air protection, we also installed a sub-slab depressurization system featuring an RN2 radon fan and a Drainjer drain cover, creating a complete radon mitigation strategy for both air and water.

During startup, our team discovered that a factory-installed bushing connecting the Cambridge unit to the DTRON2 pump had split open, preventing final completion of the water system. Rather than leave the issue unresolved, we identified the defect immediately and scheduled a follow-up visit to install the replacement component, collect final water samples, document serial numbers, and complete final payment.

Despite the unexpected factory defect, the major installation work was completed successfully, and Robert now has a comprehensive air and water treatment system designed to provide long-term protection for his home.

From elevated radon in both air and water to a complete treatment solution, this project demonstrates how the right combination of equipment can create a healthier home from the ground up.
