According to the Illinois radon code, the exhaust of the radon system must be vented above the highest eave of the home. Many radon companies design the system using unpainted PVC pipe to vent up the side of the house.
We install the exterior system using 3X4" aluminum downspout that is painted to match. Attic Radon Mitigation Systems : Illinois radon code will allow radon mitigation systems installed through the garage attic even if the roof is at a lower elevation than the highest eave of the home. The vent pipe installed through the roof must not be within the line of sight of any upper level windows.
The attic installation is great for those that want to hide the radon mitigation system from view. Crawl Space Radon Mitigation : According to IL radon code, all crawlspaces must be sealed using an air-tight membrane unless they are covered with concrete. This allows the crawl space radon mitigation system to work by creating a barrier between the soil and the indoor air.
Our method of sealing crawlspaces makes for a cleaner space that helps reduce dust, musty odors and humidity in the home. Cracks Sealed: Cracks in the concrete floors can be radon entry points. The cracks are sealed using elastomeric caulk. This is based on data submitted from visitors on our site. Learn more here. Illinois's state radon zone average is 1.
