Radon Eliminated in Worthington, MN

A homeowner from Worthington, MN, was chatting with her neighbor one day when she learned that they had just had their home tested for radon gas. She didn't know much about the dangers of radon gas but figured it would be worth testing her home, just to be on the safe side. When the homeowner went to look for radon specialists in her area, she quickly found our website. She was impressed with other radon systems we had installed in her area and decided to sign up for her FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Ryan P, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. 

When Ryan arrived at the home, he began the process by placing a continuous radon monitoring test in the home and then carried on with his inspection of the home. When Ryan finished, he met with the homeowner. He began by explaining a bit more about what radon is. Radon is an invisible, odorless, colorless gas that is emitted from the breakdown of the soil around your home's foundation. It creeps into your home through small holes or cracks in the foundation and silently wreaks havoc on lung tissue. Ryan went on to say that radon gas is the second leading cause of lung cancer, claiming 21,000 lives each year in the United States. Going back to the test, Ryan explained to the homeowner that the purpose of this test was to record radon levels in the house over 48 hours, delivering an average result when the test concluded. Ryan went on to say that, should the results come back higher than 4 pCi/L, he would strongly recommend the installation of a radon mitigation system. Ryan explained that a typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. He finished by saying that, when installed by an experienced professional, a radon mitigation system will lower the concentration of radon gas in your interior air to minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health safety agencies. The homeowner liked Ryan's comprehensive approach and solution, and decided to sign on the spot. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Dakota, and his team were able to seamlessly place the system in the home. Now, our customer is thrilled to know that he no longer has to worry about dangerous radon gas!
