Robert's radon mitigation project requires attention as the initial test revealed a level of 9.6 pCi/L, exceeding the EPA's recommended action level of 4 pCi/L. To address this concern, we'll be installing a mitigation system that meets Robert's preferences. The system will be located in the laundry room with the discharge pipe exiting through the back wall, minimizing its footprint within the space. An existing electrical outlet in the laundry room will be used to power the system, with an additional exterior outlet available if needed. Robert has opted for a one-sided installation initially. To ensure effectiveness on both sides, we'll provide him with two radon test kits for retesting after the initial installation is complete.
Imagine living in your dream home in Gray, Maine and then discovering a potential health risk you never knew existed: radon gas. That's exactly what happened to one of our valued clients!
While initially unaware of radon and its health risks, this homeowner became concerned about potential exposure. They contacted Maine Radon & Water Treatment, their trusted partner in healthy living, to schedule a professional radon test.
The test results came back at 13.9 pCi/L, which EPA recommends a radon mitigation system.
Maine Radon & Water Treatment is all about empowering homeowners with knowledge and creating healthy living environments. Our team promptly sent a free quote, followed by a thorough site visit and assessment. During this visit, our certified radon experts didn't just assess the home; they took the time to educate the homeowner on the process and potential health risks of radon gas.
Feeling confident and informed, the homeowner gave the green light for a radon mitigation system installation. The existing passive system is inaccessible. We used the proven sub-slab depressurization method, effectively drawing radon gas from beneath the foundation and venting it safely outside the home. Post-installation radon test results came back at 1.8 pCi/L.
Now, our client enjoys complete peace of mind knowing their Lewes home is a safe haven for their family. Their proactive approach and our commitment to healthy living made this a win-win situation!

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.
