HOW DOES RADON MITIGATION WORK?
HOME ASSESSMENT
INSTALL MITIGATION SYSTEM
Mitigation begins with a free home consultation by a Canadian National Radon Proficiency Program (C-NRPP) certified scientist.
Home Consultation
-
Your basement is evaluated to identify radon entry points, location of HRV fresh air intake, combustion appliances, and infloor plumbing.
-
Specific radon reduction strategy is explained and discussed with the homeowner.
-
Personalized quote and system design is provided and customized to your home.
We use proven scientific methods and this is what makes us unique. We follow Health Canada guidelines to illustrate that our design is engineered to maximize efficiency and minimize cost. A sub-slab depressurization system is type normally installed to lower radon level.
Installation Process
-
A hole is cored through concrete slab, gravel/soil is identified and removed.
-
A Flow Meter Station and sub-slab pressure diagnostics are used to calculate optimum fan size.
-
PVC piping, fan, bracing, U-tube manometer and labelling are installed.
-
HRV filters are cleaned and airflow is balanced by HRAI certified technicians.
TEST & REPORT
A post-mitigation test and comprehensive assessment report are provided.
Post Installation
-
An 84 hour test is conducted after the system is operational to confirm radon level has been successfully reduced.
-
Our goal is to reduce radon level below 100 Bq/m3.
-
An assessment report and test plot are provided.
-
All work comes with a full 5 year warranty.

HAPPY CUSTOMERS
"Geoff was very appreciative and understanding of my concerns when I hired him to do the mitigation.
He showed up on time, fully engaged, and did an excellent job. My levels of 14 Bq/m3 are now below outdoor levels. I cannot recommend him more."
- Anastas
"I had borrowed a radon detector from the Library and was shocked to see the high radon levels.
I called Geoff and he was able to install the radon mitigation systemwithin a couple of days.
My levels went from 450 Bq/m3 to 12 Bq/m3. I highly recommend Advanced Radon Technology!!"
