Copper Woods Radon Mitigation

04/09/2015

Tonight I finished one of the hardest and taxing radon systems I have ever done. The house is over 9000 sq ft on two floors, required two full active radon systems, had to use 4" custom finished copper pipe to match existing downspouts, had to core drill through 8" of concrete and 3" of natural stone, and we had to repair and refloat the entire basement floor because of massive cracking and lifting (some cracks had settled more than a 1/2") and a host of other things....whew!!!

I had an awesome evening! I spent the last 45 min or so talking with an awesome lady that has stage 4 lung cancer. She asked me to come over and place a radon test in her home so that she can know what her level is. While there she shared with me some of her story. She also told me about plans she has to raise awareness for lung cancer!

Alright, we just completed a post mitigation test for a system we installed. Their original level was 11.3 pci/L. Our post mitigation test showed an average level of 0.4 pci/L. With the new equipment I just purchased I can actually show hour by hour the levels inside a home. The EPA says that the average outdoor radon level is 0.3 pci/L. So, this tells me that we are getting the levels down as low as possible.

Well we just finished a full install of a radon mitigation system. The original level was 36.1 pCi/l after we installed the system and ran another full continuos radon test, for approx. 68 hours, it shows that the average level is now 0.4 pCi/l!!! This system worked perfectly!!!

Well it may not look like much...but this is what you get for buying $2,700 worth of radon supplies, fans, and diagnostic equipment!

Here is a great article from the SL Tribune about radon, the number of people it kills each year, and how it affects Utah indoor air quality.
