Sunhouse Window Installation in Albert Lea, MN

Mary R. of Albert Lea, MN wanted new window wells because her old ones were covered with dirt, rust, and debris. She worked with American Waterworks before, so she decided to work with us again for this project. Our Foreman, Jeromy, and his crew installed three of our Sunhouse Window Well and Covers. These covered window wells keep cold winter winds and climate changes from irritating the basement windows. It's a small upgrade that can really make a difference to your home! 

Mary was happy with the work that was done and had a great experience with our crew!

Window Drain Installed in Albert Lea, MN

Previous windows in a homeowner's house were leaking water underneath their pre-existing Window Sunhouse, which is a dome protectant that prevents debris from invading the window. Our team at American Waterworks installed our Window Well Duct that collects any water that makes its way into the Sunhouse. In this scenario, our WellDuct Drain is connected to the homeowner's pre-existing waterproofing system which leads to the sump pump system to guide water out of the home. The homeowner was satisfied with the work and was grateful to no longer have water seeping in through their basement window.

Radon Gas Mitigated in Albert Lea, MN

A homeowner from Albert Lea, MN, was chatting with his neighbor one day when he learned his neighbors had their home tested and mitigated for radon gas. The homeowner didn't know much about the dangers of radon gas but decided to find a specialist in the area to ease his concerns. When he found our website, he was impressed with the previous radon systems we had installed in his area and decided to claim his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Brad W, one of our Design Specialists, was headed to the home. 

When Brad headed out to the home, the first step in his process was to place a continuous radon monitoring test in the lowest level of the home. Brad explained that the point of the test is to record the levels of radon in the home over a 48-hour timeframe, and at the end, deliver the average level of radon within the home. Brad went on to say that if the test came back with a level higher than 4 pCi/L, he would strongly urge the homeowner to consider installing a radon mitigation system. Brad explained that a typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. The homeowner liked the sound of Brad's plan but decided to wait until the radon results returned. When the test results came back, they were well above the recommended 4 pCi/L, so the homeowner and Brad worked together to find the right date for the installation. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team were able to effortlessly install the mitigation system in the home. Now, our customer can breathe a bit easier knowing that his home is only circulating the cleanest air!
