Radon Mitigation Before & After Photos

Maine Radon & Water Treatment got a call from this Gray Maine home for radon remediation. We checked out the place and found the perfect spot to install the system. The client was thrilled to hear that we could hide it on the backside of the house, out of sight. Once we sealed all the sump lids and fixed any cracks, we achieved results that were as low as they could go, undetectable even. And just like that, another happy customer in the books!

Upon receiving an urgent call from a homeowner in Gray, Maine, troubled by radon concerns, we initiated a meticulous examination. Our assessment uncovered elevated radon levels, signifying potential risks. Swiftly prioritizing the family's safety, we proceeded to install our E99 and Radon LV175 fan for a comprehensive mitigation solution. At Maine Radon & Water Treatment, our dedication lies in fostering safer and healthier homes through our specialized expertise in addressing radon issues.

In areas like Gray, Maine, radon levels can vary, but they often exceed safe limits, posing potential health risks to homeowners. A new homeowner in Gray discovered dangerously high radon levels of 56.2 and 37.2 pCi/L after testing, far above the EPA’s recommended action level. With no existing mitigation system, they turned to Maine Radon & Water for a solution. Our team installed a Sub-Slab Depressurization system with a Premium Radon Fan, completing Field Pressure Extension Testing to ensure a tailored fit for the home. We also installed a custom pedestal pump cover for optimal performance. Now, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their home is safe from radon exposure. If your radon levels are too high, don’t wait—schedule your consultation today!

Cheryl R. in Gray, Maine had a radon test result of 150 pCi/L, an extremely elevated level that required immediate attention. With readings this high, a properly designed mitigation system was essential to help protect the home's indoor air quality and create a safer living environment.

The installation was planned through the basement access located near the garage, utilizing a route that provided an efficient path for the mitigation system. The property already had a sump area and additional pipe penetrations that required sealing as part of the overall radon reduction strategy. A 3" Valterra® gate valve was also incorporated into the project to accommodate the system design.

One unique aspect of the installation was the electrical setup. While a permanent outlet had not yet been installed near the system location, Cheryl planned to add dedicated power after the mitigation work was completed. In the meantime, a nearby outlet at the workbench provided temporary power for system operation and testing.

With the mitigation system installed and operating, the home now has a professionally designed solution addressing one of the highest radon levels we encounter. Projects like this demonstrate how even extremely elevated radon readings can be addressed with the right design, equipment, and installation practices.

From 150 pCi/L to a safer future—another Maine home protected.
