Reducing #Radon Levels
Mitigation involves repairing or altering a building or building design for the purpose of reducing the concentration of radon in the indoor atmosphere.
Exact system design will vary from house to house dependent upon foundation type and building materials however most will consist of PVC pipe suction points attached to a fan pulling air from under the slab foundation or membrane and disposing of it above the highest eve of the roof. This system depressurizes the house in comparison to the outside environment, reducing the levels of soil gas (and radon) being drawn into the house.
