Radon Mitigation
Expert installation of radon mitigation systems to reduce radon levels below Health Canada's guideline of 200 Bq/m³. Protect your family with proven, professionally installed radon reduction solutions.
What is Radon Mitigation?
Radon mitigation is the process of reducing radon gas concentrations in your home to safe levels. When radon testing reveals levels above Health Canada's guideline of 200 Bq/m³, a mitigation system is recommended to protect your family's health.
The most effective and commonly used method is Active Soil Depressurization (ASD), also known as sub-slab depressurization. This system prevents radon from entering your home by creating a negative pressure zone beneath the foundation, venting radon gas safely outside before it can accumulate indoors.
Good News: Radon mitigation systems are highly effective, typically reducing radon levels by 80-99%. Most homes can be successfully mitigated to below 200 Bq/m³, and many achieve levels below 100 Bq/m³.
Our Mitigation Systems
Sub-Slab Depressurization
The gold standard for radon mitigation. A pipe system installed through the foundation slab creates suction beneath your home, preventing radon from entering.
- 80-99% reduction in radon levels
- Works with concrete slab foundations
- Minimal disruption to living spaces
- Quiet, energy-efficient operation
- Proven long-term effectiveness
Active Soil Depressurization
Uses a fan-powered system to actively draw radon from beneath the foundation and vent it safely above the roofline where it disperses harmlessly.
- Continuous active ventilation
- Consistent radon reduction 24/7
- Works in various foundation types
- Low operating costs (similar to light bulb)
- Includes system status monitoring
Additional Mitigation Techniques
Sealing & Caulking
Sealing cracks and openings in the foundation reduces radon entry points and improves mitigation system effectiveness.
Crawl Space Ventilation
For homes with crawl spaces, specialized ventilation systems prevent radon accumulation beneath living areas.
Sump Pump Covers
Properly sealed sump pump systems prevent radon entry while maintaining drainage functionality.
Custom Solutions
Each home is unique. We design customized systems based on your foundation type, radon levels, and property layout.
Our Mitigation Process
Initial Assessment
We review your radon test results and conduct a thorough property inspection to determine the best mitigation approach for your home's specific foundation and layout.
Custom System Design
Design a mitigation system tailored to your home, selecting optimal pipe routing, fan location, and discharge point to maximize effectiveness while minimizing visual impact.
Professional Installation
Our certified technicians install the system with precision, creating suction points, running vent pipes, mounting the fan, and sealing all entry points. Most installations complete in one day.
System Testing & Calibration
Test the system to ensure proper airflow, negative pressure, and optimal performance. Install monitoring devices to track system operation.
Post-Mitigation Testing
After the system runs for 30+ days, we conduct follow-up radon testing to verify radon levels have dropped below 200 Bq/m³ and document the system's effectiveness.
Ongoing Support
Provide maintenance guidance, answer questions, and remain available for system checks or adjustments to ensure continued protection.
System Features & Benefits
