Radon Mitigation Systems

Sub-Slab Depressurization in Longmont, CO

The proven radon system for basements and slab-on-grade homes.

How a Sub-Slab System Works

Sub-slab depressurization is the standard radon mitigation system for basements and slab-on-grade homes, and the method the EPA and Colorado's health department point homeowners to first.

A small pit is opened under the concrete floor. A sealed vent pipe and an in-line radon fan create steady suction under the slab, pulling soil gas out from under the house and venting it above the roofline. A U-tube manometer on the pipe shows the system is pulling.

Many Longmont homes have an unfinished utility room or storage corner where the suction point can go, so finished rooms stay untouched. Call (720) 790-3231 for a free estimate.

What Goes Into a System

Each part has a job.

Suction Point

A pit under the slab where the system draws soil gas.

Radon Fan

A sealed in-line fan, usually outside or in the attic, that runs around the clock.

Vent Pipe

Carries the gas up and releases it above the roofline, away from windows.

Manometer

A simple gauge on the pipe that shows the fan is working.

Sealing

Major cracks, floor drains and sump pits are sealed so the suction holds.
