You'll want to select the right radon gas mitigation system for your home. There are several ventilation systems to choose from, including:
- Active soil depressurization system (ASD): Also called sub-slab depressurization, this is the most common system and is ideal for basements with an average ceiling height and a cement floor. This system requires a PVC pipe installation beneath your home's slab. A fan is then connected to the pipe to pull gases up from the ground and release them outside.
- Sub-membrane depressurization system (SMD): This is best for homes with a dirt floor basement or an exposed crawl space. The system involves a specialized plastic covering, a PVC pipe and a fan that draws gases out and releases them outside.
- Air exchange system: This system is much less common because it's ideal for homes with unusual flooring conditions or crawl spaces that are difficult to access. We can install an air-to-air heat exchanger that moves air into and out of the house to help neutralize the air inside and prevent gas buildup.
