Radon Mitigation in North Berwick, ME 03906
Challenge
The new homeowner in North Berwick, ME, needed to address elevated radon levels before closing on their home sale. With the home sale deadline approaching, ensuring a safe environment was crucial, and the presence of radon posed a potential health risk for the new occupants. The challenge involved installing a radon mitigation system in a basement with a complex layout, requiring careful adjustments to the piping setup to ensure optimal ventilation without interfering with existing structures.
Solution
Maine Radon and Water Treatment provided a reliable solution by installing a strategic pipe in the basement to effectively manage radon ventilation. The pipe was carefully adjusted to fit the basement layout and ensure efficient airflow. A Maverick radon fan was installed to continuously reduce radon levels, while a manometer was added to monitor the system’s performance. A dedicated outlet was also set up to power the radon fan. Despite the basement's unique layout, the system was installed successfully, reducing radon levels and providing the homeowner with peace of mind before finalizing the sale.
