Radon Mitigation in St. Paul

Radon mitigation in St. Paul, MN is important because radon gas is the #1 cause of lung cancer in non-smokers.  The radon mitigation process consists of building a proper venting system that redirects the subsurface radon gas before it enters the property and accumulates in excessively high levels (above 4 pCi/L).  With over 30 years of combined radon mitigation experience, our technicians have never encountered a home that we could not mitigate under the EPA action level of 4 pCi/L.  The most important aspects of a radon mitigation system are the workmanship, the reputation and warranty of the fan used, and even the quality of the piping used when installing outside systems in cyclical climates like Minnesota.  We have a lifetime guarantee on our radon mitigation workmanship, the best radon fan warranty in the business, and we use the proper piping for the climate and building structure of homes in Minnesota.

Radon Testing St. Paul

Radon testing in St. Paul, Minnesota is important because it is the only way you can properly detect whether your home or commercial structure has high radon levels.  Since radon gas is colorless, odorless and tasteless, proper radon testing equipment has to be used to detect the hazardous gas within your structure.  We use the most technologically advanced radon testing equipment available and have the ability to provide you with you with a detailed radon test report immediately, upon completion of your radon test.

Radon Mitigation: Reduce Your Radon Levels

Radon mitigation is the most popular way of reducing radon levels in a residential structure. There are a few different ways a radon mitigation system can be done and a professional radon mitigation company will ask questions or do a site investigation to design the proper radon mitigation system for your home or business. A proper radon mitigation system should be both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Listed below are some of the more common ways a radon mitigation company may design your radon mitigation system.   
  • Sump Pump Radon Mitigation System:  If your home or structure has a submersible sump pump and a drain-tile system, a sub-slab depressurization system, using the drain-tile and sump crock, is the most common way of installing a radon mitigation system.  Radon finds the path of least resistance so it commonly travels through the drain-tile system and out of the sump crock. Since the drain-tile system is open to the soil or gravel beneath the slab, sealing off the sump crock and drawing air from either inside the crock itself or tapping into the drain tile through the slab creates a vacuum-like suction under the home. Ultimately, this allows for the radon gas to be redirected above the roofline as opposed to entering the home and accumulating in higher concentrations. 
  • Crawlspace Radon Mitigation System:  Dirt and gravel crawlspaces are very common in certain parts of the country and St. Paul and Minneapolis are two cities where they are seen quite often.  Dirt and gravel crawlspaces must be completely sealed because radon comes from the soil so direct exposure to the soil could produce high levels of radon gas within the structure altogether.  Once the exposed soil is sealed, the same principals of the above sump pump system come into play.  That is, suction is created under the slab and sealed areas which ultimately allows the fan to properly pull the radon gas and disperse it at the proper EPA suggested height above the roofline.  
  • Garage Radon Mitigation System: Garage radon mitigation systems are nice for a number of reasons.  First, garage style radon systems are far more aesthetically pleasing because the fan and piping are hidden in the garage and therefore not present on the exterior of the home.  Second, in harsher, colder climates like Minnesota, the garage system will protect the radon fan and help prolong the life of the fan. Lastly, in our installation model, garage systems can sometimes be more cost effective.  This gives us a huge competitive advantage over other radon mitigation companies that actually charge more for their garage systems because of the extra labor involved. 
  • Suction-Pit Radon Mitigation System: A suction-pit radon system is simply a different type of sub-slab radon mitigation system.  When a sump pump or drain tile system is not present, a pit must be dug out below the slab to help create airflow.  In many parts of Minnesota and the rest of the midwest, compact clay and hard, sandy soils are present below the slab.  This makes getting proper airflow through the subsoil more difficult.  Therefore, a large, proper suction pit must be dug out and the proper radon fan must be used to extract the radon gas from within the compact soil.  This style of sub-slab depressurization system is very common as many older, St. Paul homes do not have drain-tile systems.

Commercial Vapor Intrusion & Commercial Radon Mitigation 

Commercial Vapor Intrusion 

Commercial Radon Mitigation 

Vapor intrusion systems are becoming more common in the workplace and living space. As older warehouses and factories continue to be renovated and converted to apartments, condominium complexes and office spaces, the potential for vapor forming chemicals to accumulate in the structures increases.  Many of these older structures have hazardous chemicals in the old piping systems and the soil below the slab.  Our technicians work diligently with environmental consultants, general contractors, and safety teams to ensure we mitigate VOC's, methane, and other soil gases before they enter the structures and become harmful to the individuals inside.  We can devise a custom, cost effective strategy to help keep these harmful vapors from entering the structure.  Whether your commercial project is a renovation, a new construction development, or an existing building in a commercial real-estate transaction our team of professional vapor intrusion technicians can help.  
Vapor Intrusion Information!
Much like residential radon mitigation, commercial radon mitigation helps lower the levels of radon gas within a commercial structure.  Our team of commercial radon mitigation technicians have experience working in schools, large office complexes, government buildings, hospitals, apartment complexes and virtually every kind of commercial structure imaginable. Most people spend eight or more hours at their place of employment or school. According to the EPA and Surgeon General, prolonged exposure to radon gas is the #1 cause of lung cancer in non-smokers. Therefore, with the amount of time spent at work and school, more parents and employers are finding value in implementing a radon testing program and if needed, a proper commercial radon mitigation system. For questions regarding commercial radon mitigation or for a complimentary consultation or testing strategy on your business or commercial property, contact us via email or phone today!
