We had a known competitor who worked in the basement of this client. They sold them a package and done terrible work. The customer was so pissed with the radon system and on other things they did for them. Last straw was them telling them waterproofing basement would help out with radon. The client had a 2 point system that is still measuring at radon levels of 9. Manometer was reading around a 4 and talked to them about adding another fan that was of higher suction power. They also asked if we could check the existing work over and make sure they dug the cavities out properly. We agreed and checked everything thoroughly, client really appreciated us going extra mile. In addition to that, they requested an ERV installation and it will be in the basement -- vented. They did specifically request if it's possible to have the ERV vent towards the left wall looking at the stairs. Nothing is possible, we made everything work! Client is happy and would recommend us to family and friends.

When is Radon Mitigation Necessary?

Our client had this booked ahead of time but he was rushed to the hospital under critical condition. On these circumstances, the team tries their best to make sure everything is convenient to the client and won't add stress to the situation.

The client called us when he got home and wanted to get something going. He wants the system to be exiting the house out of the small electrical closet in the corner. Either that or pulling from the sump due to tiling lines. He specifically requested a Breathe EZ for layered health. As a heads up, the client really liked the sound of the Sedona but wasn't ready to pull the trigger do to total project cost. He will definitely contact us back once he is ready!

This was a simple installation as the homeowner's wife was really concerned about the high radon exposure during the winter season. She called up Iowa Radon Defense and asked for a quote. They were happy with the pricing and discussed the drafted plan with them. Everything was virtual as they knew their home very well and provided all the photos needed for the team to reference to. They will be on vacation during Thanksgiving, so they wanted this to be done before that starts. The wife was happy about the team cleaning up before leaving as she thought she would be doing it. Everything went well!

Discreet 3-Point Radon Mitigation System for Finished Basement with Cellar Room

In this nearly finished basement, high radon levels prompted a 3-point radon mitigation system to ensure complete coverage and peace of mind. Two extraction points will be placed in the utility room, which wraps around in a small U-shape and showed elevated readings. The third point will be installed in a cellar room tucked behind a wooden door, boxes were cleared to access the space during the assessment. Per homeowner request, the system will exit to the left of the exterior window, and a fan housing cover is expected to be included for a cleaner appearance. With strategic placement and thoughtful routing, this project blends effective radon removal with minimal disruption to the finished living space.

Radon Mitigation & Air Quality Boost for a Country Home

With radon levels averaging 12 pCi/L, these homeowners scheduled a two-point extraction system install on August 13th. The system will run from the utility room out the back of the home, with coring through concrete if needed. They also chose to improve indoor air quality with an Aspen air purifier in the kitchen, a Sedona dehumidifier tied into the utility room drain, and a BreatheEZ Air Cleaner; planned to integrate after their HVAC upgrade this fall. This project delivers lasting radon reduction and a healthier, more comfortable home.
