Minneapolis Radon Mitigation  

Radon mitigation in Minneapolis is extremely important because Minnesota, and the midwest in general, have some of the highest indoor radon levels in the country.  The basic concept of radon mitigation is the process of rerouting the radon gas that is present beneath the slab of a structure and ventilating it at the proper EPA suggested height above the roofline of that structure.  The most important aspects of installing a radon mitigation system are the quality and standards of the workmanship, the fan and equipment being used, and the warranties and guarantees included. Our Minneapolis radon mitigation technicians have over 30 years of combined radon mitigation experience. Furthermore, the equipment we use is the best in the industry, including our fan, which is German engineered and assembled right here in the United States.  Lastly, we offer a lifetime guarantee on our workmanship and the most competitive fan warranty in the business.  In nearly 20 years of business and over ten thousand system installations, we have been able to properly mitigate every property or project we have worked on.  Don't trust your health, your home, or your closing to the amateurs.  Call Today!

Radon Mitigation Companies Near Me

The radon mitigation and radon testing process is becoming more common in this day and age.  Most people encounter the radon mitigation process or radon testing process when they are buying or selling a home.  Many other individuals are simply concerned about the quality of air in their home or workplace.  Whatever the case, what is most important in mitigating your radon problem is finding the right company to do so.  Listed below are a few of the important factors to consider when choosing a radon mitigation or radon testing company.  
  • Is the radon mitigation or radon testing company licensed and insured?  
  • What type of service guarantee does the radon mitigation company offer?
  • How many years have they been in business and what is their track record?
  • What warranties are included in the installation of your radon mitigation system?

Radon Mitigation Systems

There are few different ways to run a radon mitigation system.  However, most of the installation methods of a radon mitigation system involve the concept of sub-slab depressurization.  Sub-slab depressurization is the process of creating negative pressure under the slab of the home or commercial property in order to draw the radon gas from the undersoil. The picture shown is a sub-slab depressurization system utilizing the drain-tile system to create negative pressure and suction.  Since the drain-tile system creates access to the soil and also generally covers a large area beneath the structure, this method is extremely effective in drawing radon from beneath the structure before it ever enters the home or building altogether.  Additionally, another way to utilize the drain-tile system in the radon mitigation process is to access the drain-tile system through the sump pump crock.  The sump crock system is very effective and commonly used but may not always be the best area for the system to exit the home atheistically.  Furthermore, if the property owner needs to access the sump crock for any reason, the additional piping can make things a bit more difficult so many times this method is avoided and access straight into the drain tile system is preferred by the owner. 

Lastly, if no drain-tile is present, the radon technician has to dig what is known as a suction pit in order to create sub-slab depressurization.  A suction pit is an open area beneath the slab where the pipe and fan can pull air easily.  This method can sometimes be more costly as there is more labor involved during the digging process and in many cases, a more powerful fan may be needed to properly pull air through the undersoil.  

Block-wall Depressurization 

Many times, when radon levels are elevated in a property, the problem could also be coming from the soil behind the block wall.  Just as sub-slab depressurization is created beneath the slab, one can utilize the block walls in a basement to create a vacuum and draw the radon from within and beyond the block walls.  Most often, this method is used alongside sub-slab depressurization.  By depressurizing the voids within the block-wall foundation, one can generally maximize the results of the radon mitigation system.  However, one thing to consider is when block-wall depressurization systems are installed, the open areas at the top of the block wall must be sealed.  If they are not sealed, you will not get proper vacuum pressure.

Crawlspace Radon Mitigation Systems

The crawlspace radon mitigation system is both the property owner and radon technician's least favorite radon situation to deal with.  The property owner doesn't like dealing with crawlspace radon mitigation systems because the cost of materials used and the cost of labor make the crawlspace system more expensive than a traditional radon mitigation system. The radon technician isn't thrilled about installing crawlspace radon mitigation systems because generally they are tight, confined spaces that are dirty and difficult to work in.  Although both parties may want to avoid the big elephant in the room, dirt and gravel crawlspaces absolutely need to be sealed during the radon mitigation process.  

Generally, specialized plastic sheeting known as a vapor barrier is laid down over the crawlspace and adhered to the walls using a specialized caulk.  For extra support, pieces of wood are pushed over the plastic and caulk and nailed to the wall. This airtight seal over the gravel or dirt crawlspace allows for the mitigation system to pull radon gas from beneath the vapor barrier creating the same type of vacuum pressure used in the sub-slab depressurization process.
