Lower your radon level

A mitigation system lowers radon in your home and keeps working quietly in the background, year after year.

What mitigation is

Mitigation controls how radon enters and moves through your home, lowering the concentration indoors.

How systems work

Most systems use a fan and vent pipe to draw radon from beneath the home and release it above the roofline, before it reaches living spaces.

Built for your home

Each system is custom and designed around your foundation type, layout and soil, and placed with appearance in mind.

Recommendation

Mitigation is always recommended

There is no known safe level of radon. Any reduction lowers your risk, so a system is recommended for every home with a measurable level, and especially at or above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L.

Mitigation systems

Sub-slab depressurization

For basements and slab foundations.

Crawlspace

A sealed membrane with suction beneath it.

Sump and crack sealing

Seals the gaps where radon gets in.

Installation day

Most systems are installed in a single day, with the work kept tidy. Before the visit ends you'll see how the system and its gauge work.

Mitigation questions

My level is under 4.0. Should I still mitigate?

Yes, mitigation is recommended. There is no known safe level of radon, the WHO reference level is 2.7 pCi/L, and any reduction lowers your risk.

How often should I retest after mitigation?

At least every two years, and again after renovations, a new heating system or changes to the foundation. A test after installation also confirms a new system is doing its job.

How does a system look and sound?

Quiet and tidy. Each system is placed with your home's appearance in mind, and most installs take one day.

How long does installation take?

Most systems are installed in a single day.

How do I know the system is working?

The U-shaped gauge on the pipe shows the fan is drawing air. When the liquid levels are uneven, it is working. If both sides are level, check the fan's switch and breaker, then open a ticket to have it checked.

The fan is making a new noise.

A change in sound can mean the fan needs attention. Open a ticket with a short description (a quick video helps) to arrange a check.
