Stamford, CT Aeration to GAC conversion | Radon Removal

This home had an old aeration system that was problematic. The system had reached a service life where multiple things were going wrong and repairs were going to be costly. The owner inquired about GAC (granular activated carbon) as an alternative. The non-mechanical, no operational noise aspect of GAC was appealing to them. We explained that while aeration was the "best available technology" (BAT) for waterborne radon removal, GAC can be an option depending on radon concentrations. After several confirmatory tests, we determined that GAC would be an applicable technology for this particular home.

We removed the old aeration system and installed the GAC tank with pre and post sediment filters (a feature many of our competitors don't do), along with an up flow acid neutralizer. The customer is thrilled with the results and has great quality water.
