Photo Album: Radon Mitigation in Portland, Maine 04103

A homeowner in Portland, Maine, contacted Maine Radon after discovering concerning radon levels of 4.0 pCi/L in their home. Worried about the associated health risks, they chose our experienced team due to our reputable service and commitment to quality. We began with a detailed inspection to confirm the radon levels and assess the best mitigation strategy. The installation process involved several key steps: first, we installed a sub-slab depressurization system in the rear left corner of the home, near the oil tank, followed by adding a clear plexiglass sump cover to help reduce radon entry. We also incorporated a 25-foot extension for the radon fan, installed a critter guard to prevent pests, and added a moisture kit to protect the fan and extend its warranty. Finally, we set up an audible alarm to alert the homeowner if the system stops functioning. After completing the installation, we successfully reduced the radon levels to 1.6 pCi/L, significantly enhancing the home’s safety. If you're worried about radon in your home, don't hesitate to reach out for a professional consultation and take the first step towards a safer, healthier living environment.
