What are some of the standard radon mitigation system requirements?
There are some basic requirements that all radon reduction systems should meet: • A radon reduction system must be clearly and visibly labeled • Soil suction systems must vent at least 10 feet above the ground and away from windows, doors, or other openings. • The exhaust fan must be located in an unlivable area (in an unoccupied attic, or if outside must be for exterior use). • A warning device must be visible in order to alert owner if system stops working properly. • A follow up test must be done by an independent contractor no earlier than 24 hours after the mitigation system is installed.
