In most homes, this is achieved by covering a crawl space with a plastic vapor barrier or drilling holes under a basement slab, and then placing a system of pipes under the barrier and/or slab that are connected to a fan placed outside of your house. The fan creates negative pressure, pulling radon outside. Radon fans are designed to run continuously and do not make audible noise.

Commercial Measurement & Mitigation If you need to test your building for radon, you have two choices: 1) Contact our office for a free charcoal test kit. This process usually takes 2-3 weeks and involves you mailing the kit to a lab. 2) Have a Radon 1 technician come to your office with an electronic testing device that measures your levels over a minimum of 48-hour period and gives you the radon report and results on the spot. The minimum charge for this is $300. If your building or office has radon, you will need to install a system that creates a negative pressure field underneath the entire building and routes a pathway either on the interior or exterior of the structure and releases it harmlessly above the roofline outdoors, where it naturally dilutes to a safe level.
Commercial Measurement & Mitigation In most buildings this is achieved by sealing the crawl space with a plastic vapor barrier or penetrating the basement slab, and then installing a riser from the barrier and/or slab that are connected to a fan and exhaust above the roofline of the structure. The fan creates an active negative pressure and pulls the radon outside. Radon fans are designed to run continuously and do not make any disturbing audible noise.
RRNC (Radon resistant new construction) Radon-Resistant New Construction (RRNC) is a set of construction techniques consistent with state-of-the-art energy efficient ‘green’ construction practices, allowing for lower energy consumption and increased savings.Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, causing an estimated 21,000 deaths in the United States annually. Unfortunately, Tennessee is a hotbed for radon.
Multi- Family Measurement and Mitigation In 2013, the White House Council on Environmental Quality launched the 2013 Advancing Healthy Housing Strateg y , which mandated that multi-family properties receiving HUD financing or refinancing are required to undergo radon testing. If the test results show concentrations of radon above 4 picocuries per liter, building owners or managers must install a radon mitigation system to reduce the concentration of the gas to an acceptable level.
