Maine Radon & Environmental Before & After Photos

A Cape Elizabeth homeowner, prioritizing their family's health, took action upon discovering a concerning radon level of 18 pCi/L in their home. Radon, a colorless, odorless gas that seeps into buildings, is the leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers according to the EPA. This level significantly exceeds the EPA's action level of 4 pCi/L, posing a serious health risk.

Our Approach to Safeguarding Your Home:

Maine Radon & Water Treatment prioritizes your family's well-being. Here's how we addressed the homeowner's concerns:

1. Prompt Action: Our radon experts responded quickly with a detailed quote and scheduled a site visit.
2. Thorough Inspection: Our team conducted a comprehensive inspection to identify all potential radon entry points.
3. Custom-Designed Solution: Based on the inspection findings, they determined the optimal location for a radon mitigation system, the most effective approach for this situation.
4. Expert Installation: Our certified radon installers efficiently installed a sub-slab depressurization (SSD) system. This method utilizes a suction pipe beneath the basement floor slab connected to a powerful radon fan outside the home. The fan continuously draws radon gas out of the soil and vents it safely outdoors. Additionally, they ensured the existing sump pump was properly sealed to further minimize radon infiltration.
5. Post-Installation Verification: Our commitment to your health doesn't stop at installation. We conducted a follow-up radon test to confirm the system's effectiveness. The results were clear – the homeowner's radon level had significantly dropped to a safe 2.4 pCi/L.

Maine Radon & Water Treatment was called to this home in Lewiston, Maine because the homeowner was concerned about the air quality of their home. Elevated Radon levels were discovered during the radon testing, which could put the people living there at risk. We quickly installed an effective radon mitigation system to make sure the family was safe. It was neatly installed and the installation area was left clean after. 

A Lewiston, Maine resident in need of water treatment services reached out to Maine Radon & Water Treatment due to concerns about water quality. After conducting water testing, we installed Premier aXis Arsenic 7 GPM 1CF Single Tank EP07 which safely, efficiently, and reliably reduces arsenic levels in the water. We also installed the sediment filter and water softener. The problem was effectively resolved, and the client expressed satisfaction with the water treatment.

Maine Radon & Water Treatment received a request to carry out radon remediation in this home located in Cumberland, Maine. The levels of radon gas reached hazardous levels. 

After discussing various options with the client, it appears that an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) might be the best choice due to the house's unique structure, including three separate slabs, with the last two seemingly poured directly onto the ledge. Considering the presence of a deck at the back of the house, we would need to exit the system through one of the sides, possibly leading to a longer run. Additionally, there's a possibility of needing a mitigation system in the garage as there's a bedroom located above it. The client plans to purchase a radon monitor to assess levels above the garage and conduct a communication test. We provided the client with a radon water test and conducted a water quality test as well.

The levels of radon gas decreased following the installation. Another satisfied client.
