Your radon mitigation system solution will depend on your home’s construction and the levels of radon detected. Our radon mitigation company hires experts in radon testing and mitigation who also have experience in the construction industry. We recommend a radon mitigation system, then we work with you to decide the best location for installation.
Many Boulder homeowners get their radon mitigation installation on the outside of their home. We can use colored pipes so your system blends in with your home exterior. Or, if you prefer, we can install the system on the interior, running the pipes through closets or the garage.
The system works by using a radon mitigation fan to draw radon out of the earth and direct it through the pipes, releasing it safely into the atmosphere at roof level. We use thick PVC, so the risk of cracking or damage to pipes is low.
