Sami contacted Georgia Radon Defense to conduct a radon test in her home. We promptly dispatched someone to execute the test. Luckily, Sami's radon test returned with a level of 2.1 pCi/L. 

Since the level came back below the EPA's action limit of 4.0 pCi/L, the EPA recommends that Sami tests her home again in four years. Regular testing is crucial in understanding actual radon exposure.

Scott in Hoschton, GA decided to have his home tested for Radon. Unfortunately, the radon levels in his home came back high. The EPA recommends mitigation if the radon levels of a home are at or above 4 pCi/L. Scott wanted to take care of the issue as soon as possible and moved forward with the radon mitigation proposed to him by our Design Specialist, Craig Shane.

Our Foreman, Trent Jones, installed the radon mitigation system by creating a suction point through the concrete floor in the basement and inserting a PVC pipe. The pipe runs up the basement wall and out of the home. Then, he installed a fan along the pipe to ensure the radon gas is pushed up and away from the living space. The gas is then expelled from the home above the roof. Scott was impressed with the quick installation and glad that she took the necessary steps to protect her health!
