Radon Mitigation Photo Album: Radon Mitigation in Athens, GA

This project addressed a radon concern in an Athens, GA (30605) home being sold. Sales agent, demonstrating a commitment to a smooth transaction, promptly contacted Georgia Radon Defense after a home inspection revealed elevated radon levels (4.2 pCi/L). Custom Solution for Partially Finished Basement: Our team assessed the home's partially finished basement to design and install a customized mitigation system. This system likely incorporated the following elements: Strategic Pipe Placement: Our specialists meticulously planned the piping route to efficiently draw radon from beneath the foundation and vent it safely out of the home. Powerful Radon Fan Installation: A high-quality radon fan would have been installed to create continuous suction, ensuring effective removal of radon gas. Manometer Monitoring: A manometer could have been installed to monitor the system's effectiveness and ensure optimal performance over time. Sump Pump Pit Attention: If the basement had a sump pump pit, our team would have addressed any interaction to prevent interference with the mitigation system. The installed system effectively reduced radon levels to a safe 1.4 pCi/L, well below the EPA's recommended action level of 4 pCi/L. This significant reduction ensured a healthy living environment for the future homeowners. Aesthetic Appeal and Peace of Mind: While the seller opted for the base mitigation system, the buyer saw the value of upgrading to our Aesthetic System with an extended warranty. This system prioritizes discretion by using high-quality materials and strategic placement to minimize any visual impact on the home's exterior, providing lasting peace of mind for the new residents.
