Radon Mitigation Systems in Colorado Springs
Radon is a colorless and odorless gas and poses serious health risks if allowed to build up inside a home. Due to the local geology, radon levels in Colorado Springs are notably higher than the national average, making radon mitigation systems necessary for many homes. At Colorado Springs Radon Mitigation we will craft a radon mitigation system for unique to your property.
Types of Radon Mitigation Systems
There are many different types of mitigation systems, each designed for difference circumstances and types of properties. In general, the systems we install can be broken down into two categories:
- Venting Systems: these systems actively remove radon from your home and minimize buildup by venting or expelling radon inside your home safely outside. Common systems in this category are sub-slab, sump pit, and block wall systems.
- Barrier Systems: these systems create obstacles to prevent radon from entering your home. Examples include crawl space vapor barriers and sealing foundation cracks and gaps.
- Combination Systems: For some properties a combination of both venting and barrier systems is optimal for radon mitigation.
Our experts conduct thorough radon testing to determine the best mitigation strategy for your Colorado Springs home. We’ll guide you through the options, explaining the pros and cons of each system type to help you make an informed decision.
