Minnesota's Standard Water Control Systems Now Certified for Radon Mitigation

MINNEAPOLIS, May 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Standard Water Control Systems and its owner and CEO, Steve Grohn were recently certified for radon mitigation and measurement by the state of Minnesota. The company - based in Crystal, MN since 1977 - now  provides radon mitigation services to both single and multi-family dwellings.  

Since earning the license, Steve Grohn said "Radon mitigation demand has been amazing thanks to our outstanding Minnesota Department of Health." He added "Standard Water has been helping Minnesotans with home safety issues such as wet basement, humidity and basement structural issues for 45 years. Adding radon mitigation just made sense for our customers."

What is radon? Radon is a colorless gas that occurs naturally in soils at measurable levels in most homes. Radon can be found at dangerous, elevated levels in nearly 40% of all Minnesota homes. Among smokers, radon is the leading cause of lung cancer and is attributed to more than 21,000 deaths across the country annually. 

Radon risk is largely preventable through testing and by installing a radon mitigation system such as the ones Standard Water Control Systems now provides.

Standard Water has already seen great success. The Twin Cities company recently tested a home at radon levels of 10 piCL - considered 2.5 times above the level at which the owners should mitigate. After installing their radon mitigation system, the radon level at the home dropped below 1.0. 

"Improving home safety with our radon system certainly provides peace of mind.  Whether it's  basement waterproofing, installing energy efficient egress windows or a radon mitigation system, our mission is to ensure Minnesota families have healthy, safe homes" Mr Grohn said.
