Windham Homeowner Prioritizes Quiet Radon Mitigation

A homeowner in Windham, Maine contacted Maine Radon & Water Treatment to activate an existing passive radon system. Their top priority was minimizing noise from the new radon fan.

Collaborative Planning and System Activation

The homeowner requested the quietest possible fan option. We would work together to determine the most suitable model while ensuring compatibility with the existing system.

Adapting to Existing System Challenges

While most of the radon piping was encased in drywall, access points existed above a drop ceiling. This would allow for the installation of a manometer, a crucial tool for measuring system effectiveness.

The project also involved careful handling of the existing piping due to a history of roof leaks.

Peace of Mind with Quiet, Effective Radon Mitigation

Through this collaborative approach, we would activate the existing passive system with a quiet, premium radon fan. This would significantly reduce radon levels in the homeowner's Windham residence, ensuring a healthier and more comfortable living environment.
