Radon Mitigation System in Jefferson, GA

A family in the Sterling Lake subdivision of Jefferson, GA was planning to finish their basement and was advised to test for radon before proceeding with the renovation. The bought a test kit from a hardware store and the results came back over 8 pCi/L. They contacted Georgia Healthy Homes to do a retest and to provide a free estimate on a radon mitigation system.

Our radon test resulted in an average of 10.1 pCi/L. The family was planning to finish almost the entire basement and requested that the system be placed under the stairwell. This was a difficult location but we were up for the challenge. It required running the pipe on the exterior of the home, which is pretty normal, but we needed to use a 40 ft ladder for the installation.

The homeowner reported that their retest after the mitigation was installed showed an average concentration of radon of 2.5 pCi/L.

If you are planning on finishing your basement, make sure you test for radon first. If you are concerned with the radon levels, call Georgia Healthy Homes for a free consultation today.
