Radon Mitigation Manitowoc WI

Radon Mitigation in Manitowoc has become an increasingly popular trend due to elevated radon gas levels in the region. According to the Manitowoc Department of Health, the average radon level in this area is 3.6 pCi/L, and 29% of all tests done averaged above 4.0 pCi/L. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) urges homeowners to have a mitigation system installed if the home tests at 4.0pCi/L or above, so Manitowoc is certainly considered an at risk area. Radon is a radioactive gas that tends to be existent in the lower levels of the home. If not removed from the home, radon is known to cause lung cancer from exposure. Thankfully, there are well established venting techniques that can be used on any home to remove the radon gas safely and indefinitely. Lifetime Radon has been serving Wisconsinites for over two decades helping them stay safe from the dangers of radon gas. We are a fully certified, insured, bonded, and experienced company with the main goal of helping every homeowner stay safe. Whether you are in need of a radon mitigation system, or want to have your home tested to see if your home is at risk, we can help! Give us a call today for a free, no obligation estimate!

Radon Testing Manitowoc WI

Radon testing is the crucial first step in the radon mitigation process. There exist no know ways to detect radon in a home without the use of radon test kits, digital monitors, or canisters. It cannot be seen, smelled, or felt by humans but because of its radioactive properties it is still harmful. Radon testing in Manitowoc is an affordable and painless process. The price range for radon testing is $25-$180. The options for radon testing that you have in Manitowoc each have their own benefits depending on what you need testing done for. There are test options specific for real estate transactions, there are cost effective options that can give you a simple average, there are options for long term detection, and even options to own your own device.

Radon Mitigation System Installation Manitowoc WI

Radon mitigation can be performed on any home, no matter the build type, or age of the property. Each of our radon mitigation systems are custom build on-site to fit your home. There are multiple regulations for radon mitigation that limit some placement options but generally each home has a few different options for where the system will ultimately end up being placed. The technique used for mitigation is different than placement. The technique used refers to how we are drawing the radon out from underneath the home, and placement refers to where the system will be aesthetically.

Techniques:

Drain-tile depressurization: This radon mitigation technique pulls airflow through the drain-tile system of a home to create the negative pressure that will draw the soil gases coming up from under the home into your drain-tile and then into our piping to be vented safely above the roofline. We can start this style of system either directly out of the sump crock, or we can core into the floor roughly 9 ½ inches away from the wall to access the drain tile directly. In either case, the sump crock needs to be sealed down air tight.

Sub slab depressurization: Sub-slab depressurization or SSD, means that the system will depressurize the air underneath the home in order to remove the radon that is rising from the soil. Drain-tile depressurization is a type of SSD, but for homes that do not have drain tile we need to create a collection point of our own. This requires digging out 5-10 gallons worth of material out from underneath the home and then sealing the pipe to the floor above. Many times this also requires installing a fan with much higher suction than the standard fan so we can pull directly from the soil effectively.

Crawl Space depressurization: Some homes in Manitowoc have crawl spaces open to the basement that are not sealed. In this case, those crawl spaces need to be sealed down air tight in order to properly keep the radon gas from coming in. For this method we seal a vapor mat to the crawlspace and sometimes attach the mitigation system piping to the crawl space while also running a standard SSD system.


Placement:

Garage Systems: A garage radon mitigation system is possible when a home has an attached garage and unfinished area of the basement that abuts the garage wall. The system runs up the basement floor either out of the drain tile, from a suction pit, or out of the sump, and then penetrates the joist to get into the garage. Once in the garage, the fan is placed, and the piping extends up and through the roof. This system is preferable to most homeowners because it is barely visible from the exterior, and the fan tends to last a bit longer when it’s sheltered from the elements.


Exterior Systems: When a garage system is not possible or preferred by the homeowner, an exterior system is always a possibility. The system runs up the basement wall to the exterior on the back of the home or the side and continues up to safely vent above the gutterline. We take pride in our work, and we understand that this isn’t always the best thing aesthetically for you, but we do everything we can to make it work how you want it.  

Custom Systems: Sometimes it is possible to run the system through the interior of the home and through the attic. We would need to bid this type of system in-person, but if it’s possible, and up to code, we are willing to run the system however you want it. We custom build all of our systems to fit each home.
