Radon Mitigation Company in Norton, Ohio 

Are there elevated levels of Radon Gas in your Norton, OH home? 

You will need to contact a Licensed Radon Mitigation Company to install a removal system if your home contains elevated levels of radon gas. 

The purpose of installing a radon removal system is to ensure that the inside air quality in a home is breathable and safe from cancer-causing gas. 

What is the Installation Process for a Mitigation System? 

Installation Performed the Right Way

It's crucial to hire a licensed company to install your mitigation system because specific rules and regulations must be followed to ensure the correct installation of the system and that the radon is being eliminated from the home. 

1. At Radon Eliminator, the team begins the installation process by finding a quality suction point that is easy to access and offers the best outcome for the system's success. 

2. Once the suction point has been located; the technician will drill a 5" hole into the sub-slab of the basement. Your Radon Eliminator mitigation specialist will use this hole for the deployment of the mitigation system.

The specialist needs to get the dimensions of the hole correct, or there will not be enough suction to draw the gas outside of the home. 

3. Next, the technician will locate the discharge point. This point is where the gas will be exhausted from the house. 

Your specialist must choose the correct location so the gas does not have a chance to re-enter the home once it is eliminated. 

4. After the discharge point is found, the contractor will begin the pipe fitting process. This process includes sealing the pipe base that goes directly into the ground. 

The pipes are sealed using a backer rod to fill the spatial gap and finished with industrial-grade caulk. 

5. After the piping is in place; the technician will need to choose the pipe pathway.

This is also when your mitigation specialist will use a chemical welding agent to connect the PVC piping. It needs to be made sure that there are no leaks in the piping system. 

6. The final step in the installation process is to place the ventilation fan along the pipe pathway. Your specialist can connect the exhaust fan to the outside of the home or, in some cases, inside the garage attic. 

The ventilation fan pulls the radon from beneath your home and into the atmosphere.  

How Will You Know If The Mitigation Was a Success?

After the installation is complete, the technician will leave a continuous monitoring device in the basement home for 72 hours, collecting data. 

When they return, they will be able to tell you the radon levels. If, for some reason, they have not been reduced below the EPA recommended action level of 4.0, the team will return and do whatever needs to be done at no additional cost to you.
