Minneapolis – 06/26/2015

Location: Minneapolis, MN

Cost: $2675

Initial Radon Level: 10.0 pCi/L

Post Mitigation Radon Level: 0.7 pCi/L

This was a big job:

  1. sealing a crawlspace
  2. running a radon pipe over a finished room
  3. installing a suction point in the basement floor
  4. mounting a fan and vent pipe on the exterior of the home

The crawlspace was fairly large and just deep enough to make the work easy.  When crawlspaces are not deep enough it requires more work to get it sealed properly.  We connected a pipe, that was run across the basement, over a finishing ceiling.

We installed a suction pit in the basement floor and connected it to the crawlspace pipe. The pipe continued across part of the basement and out the rim joist to the exterior.

On the exterior we mounted the radon fan.  The electrical connection was supplied by a licensed electrician.
