How do I know if the passive pipe in my newer subdivision home is enough for a summer testing when the home is newer?

Accepted Answer

A passive radon setup in a newer subdivision home when the home is newer is usually a rough-in or pipe path without an active fan pulling soil gas from under the home. In a summer testing situation, the question is whether the system is actually lowering the average radon level. Passive systems can help, but testing tells you whether the home needs an active fan or a different mitigation plan. If something about your system seems off, call or text Bill. He can often tell you over the phone what to check first, and he can stop out if it needs eyes on it. No trip charge.
