Radon Mitigation Before & After Photos

In this Canon City home a high radon level was measured. The family had a newborn baby and wanted the home to be safe for his developing lungs. This home had a crawlspace and was mitigated using encapsulation to reduce radon levels.

In Canon City, CO, this home required radon mitigation as part of a real estate transaction after elevated radon levels were discovered during testing for the buyer, putting the closing at risk. The homeowners chose Purple Mountain Radon for their experience and ability to deliver reliable, code-compliant solutions on a tight timeline. Our team installed a sub-slab depressurization system in the mechanical room, carefully adapting the design due to finished spaces on both sides of the room. With the garage located directly above, we rerouted the exhaust through the garage and safely exited through the side wall, achieving effective radon reduction without disrupting the finished basement areas. The result was a successful mitigation completed prior to closing, giving both buyer and seller peace of mind. If you’re facing high radon levels during a home sale or purchase, contact Purple Mountain Radon to protect your investment and keep your transaction moving forward.

Lake George , CO home with crawlspace and basement slab. 

When new homeowners moved into their Lake George, CO home, they discovered radon levels at 5 pCi/L, with a significant source being the unsealed crawlspace. To address this, Purple Mountain Radon implemented a sub-membrane depressurization system. The process included installing a gas mat on the crawlspace floor, encapsulating the space with a durable 6.5 mil vapor barrier, and mechanically fastening it to prevent tears. The barrier was securely sealed to the walls, creating an airtight space, and a radon suction point was installed at the exterior rim joist. The result was a significant reduction in radon exposure, giving the new homeowners peace of mind.
