Radon is a radioactive gas that naturally occurs in the soil and can seep into homes, increasing the risk of lung cancer, especially in areas with poor ventilation. In this project, Purple Mountain Radon addressed the high radon levels in a home in Colorado Springs, where the family had a newborn. The issue stemmed from exposed soil in an un-encapsulated crawlspace, which allowed radon to enter the home. The team encapsulated the crawlspace with a vapor barrier to meet radon mitigation standards and attached it to the radon system. The challenge arose when the homeowner requested part of the crawlspace to be used for storage, leading to the installation of a dimpled plastic drainage mat and a thicker 20mil vapor barrier for added protection and airflow. This solution not only met the radon standards but also provided a practical storage space for the homeowner. If you're concerned about radon in your home, let Purple Mountain Radon provide the solution to ensure your family's safety. Reach out today to schedule a consultation.
In Colorado Springs, CO, the homeowner recently moved in and wanted to reduce the radon levels in their home to ensure a safer living environment. After discovering an existing vapor barrier that wasn’t fully sealed, along with forced air furnaces located in the crawlspace, Purple Mountain Radon was called to address the issue. The team expertly sealed all gaps, posts, and footings, and added 375 feet of perforated pipe under the vapor barrier. A radon fan was then installed, with the customer requesting downspout material for the exhaust. Despite the challenge of working with a crawlspace just under 6,000 sq. ft., Purple Mountain Radon was able to effectively reduce the radon risk.
This radon mitigation project in Colorado Springs on October 17, 2024, involved a perimeter drain installation to enhance safety while prioritizing aesthetics. The homeowner requested minimal visibility from the street, so we planned to bore through a window well near the front of the house, ensuring the exhaust pipe could run beneath the fence. Once on the other side, the pipe would attach to the wall for a clean finish. To help with the appearance, the homeowner asked us to drop off the pipe and fittings a couple of days before installation so he could paint them. This thoughtful approach supported both safety and the homeowner's desire for concealment.
Before photo of crawlspace. There was less than 12" of clearance from bottom of floor joists to crawlspace floor; a pile of dirt was higher along the access. This dirt pile had to be distributed throughout the crawlspace and smoothed out to allow access. After smoothing out the dirt pile, it created about 15" or so inches of clearance where I was able to literally crawl in and install the membrane.
There were two crawlspaces in this home we completed earlier this year which were tied into the sub-slab depressurization system of the basement.
