Reliable Radon Mitigation System

Radon Facts

Radon gas is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless radioactive gas that can enter buildings through cracks and gaps in the foundation and accumulate to dangerous levels, increasing the risk of lung cancer. The EPA estimates that radon is responsible for approximately 21,000 lung cancer deaths each year in the United States alone. Testing for radon and implementing effective radon mitigation strategies is critical in protecting your family’s health and ensuring a safe home environment.

FAQ About Radon Mitigation Systems

Let our Colorado Radon Company experts answer any further questions you may have about radon mitigation systems.

Yes, this is known as “internal routing.” It is the preferred method for new construction or major renovations because it conceals the PVC piping within closets, wall chases, or the garage. By routing the pipe through the interior of the home and out through the roof (much like a standard plumbing vent) the system remains aesthetically invisible from the outside. However, for existing homes, internal routing is often more expensive and invasive, as it requires cutting into drywall and navigating between floor joists, which is why many retrofitted systems use an exterior-mounted pipe.

In most jurisdictions and according to EPA standards, the answer is no. While side-wall venting might seem easier, it is generally discouraged or prohibited for several reasons. First, radon is a heavy gas; if vented low to the ground, it can linger near the foundation or enter through nearby basement windows. Second, the moisture-laden air from the soil can cause “white-rot” or ice damage to your siding. Finally, a vertical, roof-penetrating exhaust uses the natural buoyancy of warm air to help move the gas upward, even if the fan were to experience a momentary drop in performance.

While a radon system is not technically an air purifier or a filtration system, it provides significant secondary air quality benefits. By creating a vacuum beneath the house, the system pulls out a large amount of soil moisture and “soil air” before it can enter the basement. This reduction in vapor intrusion often leads to a noticeable drop in basement humidity levels and the elimination of “musty” odors. While it won’t filter airborne dust, by keeping the basement drier, it creates an environment that is much less hospitable to mold and mildew growth.

In most states, there is no law requiring a homeowner to mitigate radon simply to live in the house. However, it has become a de facto requirement during real estate transactions. Most buyers will request a radon test as part of their home inspection. If the results are at or above the EPA’s action level of 4.0 pCi/L, the buyer’s mortgage lender or the buyers themselves will almost always require a certified mitigation system to be installed at the seller’s expense before the title can be transferred.

This is a common misconception… In fact, the opposite is often true. While old houses may have more cracks in the foundation, they are often “leaky” enough that air exchange happens naturally. Newer homes are built to be extremely airtight for energy efficiency. While this is great for your heating bill, it effectively “seals the lid” on the home, allowing radon gas that seeps in through the foundation to reach dangerously high concentrations. Any home, whether built in 1920 or 2026, can have elevated radon levels regardless of its construction style.

No, radon fans are designed for high efficiency since they must run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Most modern fans operate on roughly 60 to 90 watts of power – roughly equivalent to keeping one or two old-fashioned incandescent lightbulbs turned on. Depending on your local utility rates, you can expect the system to add between $5 and $15 per month to your electric bill. Given the health protection it provides, most homeowners find this to be a very low-cost “insurance policy.”

For a standard single-family home with a concrete slab or a basement, a professional crew can typically complete a full installation in 3 to 5 hours. This includes drilling the suction pit, running the PVC piping, mounting the fan, and sealing the major floor cracks. More complex homes, such as those with multiple foundations (a basement plus a crawlspace) or those requiring internal routing through closets, may take a full day or more to complete.

Radon Concerns in Lakewood

Lakewood, characterized by its scenic surroundings and diverse housing developments, encounters significant radon challenges. The geological foundation, rich with uranium deposits, contributes to elevated radon risks, underscoring the need for consistent testing and mitigation.

The Necessity of Effective Mitigation

In Lakewood, homes in areas from Green Mountain to Belmar Center can be affected by radon due to the geological conditions beneath. Implementing efficient mitigation is vital to ensure residents’ safety from prolonged radon exposure.
