Radon Mitigation
When radon gas levels are elevated, we offer effective radon gas mitigation solutions to bring them down to safe levels. The best way to deal with radon gas is to suction it out of the lowest level and dump it outside or pressurize your lowest level, so it never enters your home in the first place.
Don’t worry, Detective Homes Mitigation LTD is a trained technician that recommends the best radon mitigation system for homes, ensuring the safety of your house.
There are a few methods that are included in practically all radon mitigation procedures, including:
Sub Slab Depressurization (SSD)
Many homes in the United States include a “Sub Slab Depressurization” system, which in fact, comprises a PVC pipe and a fan. These two work together to pull air from beneath the basement floor. Then, it releases it out of the home through the roof. A vacuum is created by the radon fan under the basement floor of your home. This is where it seals your property by stopping radon gas from entering, especially when the fan is running. This option for radon mitigation is highly common.
Sub Membrane Depressurization (SMD)
A dirt crawlspace is used to install the sub membrane depressurization system. Typically, a special plastic will be used to cover the dirt crawlspace floor and is sealed to the outer walls. The SSD system's pipe is then fitted with a tee. The piping will enter the crawl space before passing through the plastic floor covering. Air is drawn from beneath the covering of the floor while the fan is operating. This radon mitigation procedure is less trustworthy than others. Sump crocks, holes, and significant cracks in the basement floor will be sealed to improve system operation.
Drain Tile Depressurization (DTD)
Another popular technique for lowering radon levels in homes is drain tile depressurization. Drain Tile Depressurization (DTD) - This kind of radon mitigation system lowers the amount of radon gas in the house by using the foundation drain lines that were installed when the concrete floor was being built. The amount of radon in the house will be critically reduced by drawing air from the foundation drain pipes, which are typically extended around the whole perimeter of the house. In order to enhance the performance of the system, it is crucial to seal sump crock openings as well as any other holes in the floor. This will maximize the operation of the system.
Radon Mitigation System Installation
Each radon system is specially designed to ensure proper operation and lower radon gas levels without compromising on the house’s aesthetic appeal. Our process begins with a physical inspection of your house, structure, and floor. Having keen eyes for details, we look for every nook or crack – the troubled entry points – which could allow radon gas to enter. The system’s placement can then be determined to guarantee improved performance and effective radon reduction in the house.
Now comes the most important step – radon mitigation system installation – creating proper ventilation. Our radon mitigation system for homes makes it simple for the radioactive gas to escape from your house. After being released into the open air, the high radon gas concentration reacts with the air and is diluted to a safe level.
Our radon mitigation system installation is tailored for your home based on factors such as considering radon levels, home structure, foundation type, age of the house, and square footage. These systems are designed to effectively and efficiently remove radon gas from your home – ultimately exceeding your expectations when it comes to radon mitigation system efficiency.
Radon System Repair
Not sure whether your installed radon reduction system is operating properly? Is your radon mitigation system efficiency meeting State criteria? Don’t have a clue about radon mitigation system maintenance?
I have years of experience in radon mitigation system installation that ensures your home is safe and healthy. The simplest and most effective way to completely validate that your systems are working to their full potential is through diagnostic reviews.
No matter its radon system upgrades or repairs – fan replacement to sump lid repairs – we’ve got you covered. Radon is not something you want in your home, particularly at elevated levels. It is naturally occurring, meaning it is impossible to completely get rid of. So the best option is to lower your levels by taking care of your radon reduction systems.

Radon Monitoring
Everyone deserves to live in a home that is safe and healthy. Unfortunately, there exists a colorless, odorless, and radioactive gas that can cause lung cancer and other serious ailments. In fact, without testing, it’s impossible to know if your home contains dangerously high levels of radon, exposing your family to significant health risks.
It’s crucial to figure out where radon enters the house because it can do so in a number of different ways. By honing in on the exposure factor, one can identify the problem and begin the radon monitoring, management, and mitigation processes.
