Hi, Jesse! I had a radon mitigation system installed a few days ago in my southeastern Wisconsin condo. The condo is a side-by-side, built using a common slab over a crushed rock foundation. As a part of my mitigation, pressure field testing was done, the result of which was to use a larger and more powerful radon fan. My sump pit was also covered and sealed. Post-installation testing will be done in 2-3 weeks to determine if the radon concentrations are acceptable. Since the condo type is side-by-side, I have a couple of questions: 1) will my system also mitigate my neighbor's condo to some degree, and 2) should my neighbor's sump pit also be covered and sealed? Any thoughts you have would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, and have an awesome day!

Says right on it no caulk apparently hes had problems with leaky pipeboots

Radon testing and mitigation is such a racket. It's a classic snake oil sales tactic. All those suckers wasting money on this are silly. There's a sucker born every second.

My fan runs 24/7 and I can HEAR the air being sucked in through the cracks in my basement floor. Is this normal? I thought they had a Radon detector and only turned on when the detector was triggered.

Radon, in a bunch of old folks homes round these parts

Well done

Good information. The alarm has been updated since with a new tube that has a 90 degree bend built in.

If your neighbors have a Radon mitigation system, that means they've done a test to see that their levels are higher than what's considered safe, which automatically means the levels on your house are also not safe. Radon expands for hundreds of miles. It all depends on if the bedrock of your region is Granite. North Carolina for example is Radon country. Radon is an unseen problem for vast swaths of the country.

it's radon, it rises out of the ground in places where the ground contains heavy radioactive elements in mineral form, which decay into radon. if you have a permeable ground floor or basement with little ventillation, radon can build up to harmful levels.

i already have a dirt floor. does that help?

When you love what you do.

Beautiful. Question - why end point straight and not like J opposite?

That’s not a tile drain . It’s perforated pipe . That pipe is commonly used for tile drains . generally outside in a field a garage . But when your in a basement there footing drains not tile .

Can you recommend anyone in NJ with your level of detail?

😂😂 bohr mal mit einem 6er Bohrer durch ein deutsches Dach 😂😂😂

Rofl, you used metal snips for shingles 😂😂😂😂😂, use a hook blade, God you suck lol.

The horrible company who installed my system during me buying the house put the outside vent tube and fan 3 feet away from my beautiful screened in sunporch so the sound of venting ruins my tranquil space all bc I was aT sea and unable to supervise the idiots that did the work.

Sorry but why did this go on the inside of the house instead of the out side. Seem much less safer this route if there is a leak.

Glad to see that someone is finally making a serious effort to tackle the obesity pandemic in the US!

That's a lot of work and vent routing. Well done! Very professional to the last Caulk & Nail with matching Color Coat.

Why is there Radon, from where dose it come from?

Never really understand how you can just drill a hole in concrete and stick a pipe in it and that’s all you need to divert radon

Replaced an old exterior wall mounted fan and after a month it started to vibrate through the room next to it again. Sounds normal outside. Could it have become unbalanced or could the vibration be a bad fan? Any troubleshooting you’d recommend?

Gute Arbeit 👍🏻❗

I bet you love your craft. You work like you do. 👍🏻

It seems a cover could suppress all the noise completely. A cover in the form of a box that conceals the whole fan on the outside wall of the house.

I know you are using this to ensure that radon gas does not permeated the house, but failure to prime and glue the joints just means there is a possibility of leaks at every joint.

Man i just. I don't get why people can't use appropriate bandages. Like i really liked this until i saw that.

good job buddy saludos 🇲🇽🇲🇽👍

I have so much respect for skilled professionals. You are a pleasure to watch 😊

Ich weiß zwar nicht warum ihr Amis alle Rohre klebt, aber die Arbeit sieht sauber aus. Jedoch frage ich mich wofür du einen Brandschott verwendest bei einer brennbaren Deckendurchführung

Don't know what you're doing mate but good job!

Shouldn't that pipe have a rain cape?

😮 Nice jobby job. 😂

You have no idea how badly you need this system! Get it done, stat!

What were you measuring with the level laying flat on top of the pipe?

Unless things have changed, you should have a turndown on the vent to prevent water intrusion

Nobodys waved at me like that since my mom left

Love that you guys painted the vent on the roof. It's in the details. Cheers.

Wow excellent. I've installed solar and done the wiring through the attic. You did a great job on that roof penetration.

What about rain?

Aha, tak proto ti vse tak trva, pokazde tam pul hodiny nastavujes kameru.

Using a level Everytime! Cool 😎

Beautiful work 👏

Another thing that needs power. Nope

I don’t worry about Radon. I pretty certain the forever chemicals already in my blood will get me first.

So radon to the roof, and rain to the basement?

Didn’t see the top hat for the roof

Funnily enough I have only ever seen more problems to health because of this without pre-existing conditions.

If you guys want to get rid of radon in basement ( heavy gas ) , just be sure to put your dryer in the basement, everytime you will do laundry, you will automaticaly vent the radon outdoor.
