Radon Mitigation
An affordable solution to indoor pollution!

SUB-SLAB DEPRESSURIZATION
Typical Radon Mitigation System
FAN AND EXHAUST INSTALLED ON OUTSIDE WALL

The typical Radon Mitigation System is technically called a sub-slab depressuriztion system or SSD.
.
. 
SSD's are vacuum systems that draw a continuous vacuum from the aggregate and soil below the basement, crawlspace, or slab. While seemingly simple, these systems are very effective at preventing radon entrance, while maintaining the energy efficiency characteristics of a home.
.
In most cases, the SSD is routed directly to the exterior where an in-line fan and exhaust pipe are installed on the outside wall. This is the most affordable system. These systems range from $725 - $875, which includes follow-up testing.
.
Many homeowners choose to have the SSD routed through the interior of the home via an attached garage or attic, with the exhaust pipe terminating through the roof. These systems are much less obtrusive as the only component visible from the exterior is a small portion of pipe, looking much like a common plumbing stack pipe. These systems range from $1,000 - $1,800, which includes follow-up testing.

IN SOME CASES, THE SSD CAN BE CONCEALED
