Understanding Radon

What the System Is Actually Doing

Radon is measurable and fixable. These two views show why testing matters and why a mitigation system is designed around the whole home, not just one visible crack.

How Radon Gets In

Pressure under the home finds small openings

Radon usually is not coming from one single hole. Pressure under the home lets soil gas move upward through porous concrete itself, sump openings, crawl spaces, cracks, and small gaps around pipes.

How Mitigation Pulls It Out

The fan creates the easier path out

A mitigation fan creates a lower-pressure path under the home, so radon is pulled into the pipe before it enters the living space, then vented above the roofline.

The fan runs continuously outside
Discharge is vented above the roofline
How It Works

Bill and Jose were very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Bill clearly explained how the Radon Mitigation System would work. They were on time and finished in the time frame that was stated. They were respectful of our house and did a wonderful job of clean up. We would highly recommend them!
