How Do You Mitigate Radon
Sub-Slab Depressurization
For Basements/Slab Foundations: Involves drilling a hole in the slab, inserting a PVC pipe, and using a fan to draw radon from beneath the slab and vent it outside.
Sub-Membrane Depressurization
For Crawl Spaces: Covers the crawl space floor with an airtight plastic membrane, seals it to the walls, and uses a pipe and fan system to vent radon outside.
Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV)
For General Use: Exchanges indoor and outdoor air, balancing heat and moisture, and dilutes indoor radon levels with fresh air.
Regular testing and professional assessment help determine the best mitigation method for your home.
