In Colorado Springs, CO 80924, a homeowner preparing to keep their property as a rental decided to test for radon and discovered elevated levels that needed immediate attention. Wanting a reliable, long-term solution to protect future tenants and preserve the home’s value, they chose Purple Mountain Radon for their local expertise and proven mitigation approach. Before installation, the home’s sump pump and multiple window wells with drains allowed radon to enter the basement, but after installing a sump pit depressurization system, radon levels were effectively reduced, creating a safer living environment. If you’re planning to rent, sell, or simply protect your home, schedule a radon test and mitigation with Purple Mountain Radon today for peace of mind.
For this radon mitigation project in Colorado Springs, CO, Purple Mountain Radon installed a sub-slab depressurization system to address elevated radon levels in the main level of this slab-on-grade home, constructed in 1973. Located in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, the home faced radon infiltration through the foundation.
Given the unique layout, with an HVAC supply duct embedded in the slab, coring through the floor was not feasible. Instead, Purple Mountain Radon used horizontal coring through the foundation wall to reach beneath the slab. This method was ideal to avoid disrupting the interior aesthetics, as the HVAC duct extended around the perimeter and would have interfered with a standard radon pipe installation. By carefully navigating these obstacles, the team successfully reduced the radon risk while preserving the home's design.
In Colorado Springs, CO, a homeowner grew concerned about elevated radon levels in their basement—a space their family frequently used. Seeking a trusted and effective solution, they turned to Purple Mountain Radon for their reputation in delivering precise and long-lasting results. The team designed a sump and perimeter drain depressurization system, sealing off daylight drains with a flapper valve to ensure an airtight setup. By tapping into the drain tile and routing the exhaust discreetly along the home’s corner, the system now keeps radon levels safely below 1.0 pCi/L. If you’re ready to make your home safer from radon exposure, contact Purple Mountain Radon today and breathe easier with proven protection.
During a real estate transaction in the northern hills of Colorado Springs, elevated radon levels were discovered in this home, prompting the need for a reliable mitigation solution. The homeowners turned to Purple Mountain Radon for their experience handling complex installations, especially in tight and unconventional spaces. The home presented a unique challenge with a sump pump hidden behind a false bedroom wall and limited clearance where the discharge line exited the rim joist. To effectively reduce radon levels, the team sealed the sump with a secure lid and strategically tied the mitigation system into the perimeter drain through a window well, creating a clean and efficient airflow path. The result was a safer home and a smoother closing process. If radon is discovered during a home sale or testing, trust Purple Mountain Radon to deliver solutions that work—even in the most challenging setups.
