Our Seamless Six-step radon mitigation system Installation Process

In addition to scope assessment, regulation compliance, diagnostics, system design and OM&M, the steps of the actual installation involve:

1

Prepared Arrival

A pre-installation review of the system’s design ensures that proper parts, equipment, and manpower arrive at the site.

2

Review Procedures

On-site procedure and process is reviewed with the client and team members.

3

Review Safety Tactics

Any unusual or non-standard safety procedures are reviewed with team members.

4

System Installation

Our experts install the suction points, piping, sealing, fan(s), and discharge.

5

Quality & Compliance Review

Double-checks, and sometimes diagnostics, ensure a high-quality installation and regulation compliance.

6

Maintenance & Monitoring

Information about the system is accumulated to complete the maintenance guide.

Radon Mitigation: Your Questions Answered

Here’s a collection of common questions about our radon mitigation services. Have questions about scope assessment, regulation compliance, diagnostics, system design, and OM&M? Explore our site or reach out to us today.

Radon levels can be similar, higher, or lower than nearby homes, depending on construction and ventilation. Commercial buildings often have more robust HVAC systems and different pressure dynamics, which can either mitigate or exacerbate radon entry. Basements, lower levels, and areas over crawl spaces or underground structures tend to be at highest risk. Because commercial buildings may have more complicated airflow patterns, pockets of high radon can exist in specific zones. Testing each building individually is the only reliable way to know actual levels.

Commercial projects are typically more complex due to larger building footprints, varying foundation systems, and sophisticated HVAC and pressurization setups. Design must consider multiple zones, elevator shafts, stairwells, utility chases, and underground structures like tunnels or parking garages. Commercial buildings also have different occupancy patterns and code requirements, which influence system design and installation methods. Access, aesthetics, and noise constraints are more critical in many commercial environments. As a result, engineering-driven design and more robust documentation and commissioning are standard in commercial mitigation.

The most common approach is sub-slab depressurization (SSD), where suction points are installed through the slab to draw radon-laden air from below and exhaust it above the roof. For buildings with crawl spaces or structural voids, sub-membrane depressurization or drain-tile depressurization may be used. In some cases, building pressurization adjustments or dedicated ventilation solutions are incorporated to manage radon and indoor air quality. Large or complex properties may use multiple fans, zones, and monitoring points for better control. System choice is based on building design, radon levels, and operational constraints.

Radon mitigation is beneficial for a wide range of properties, including multi-family residences, schools, churches, daycares, municipals, retail spaces, industrial warehouses, offices, senior living facilities, dry cleaners, and laundry facilities. Essentially, any building with elevated radon levels or those located in high-risk areas will benefit from radon mitigation services. Ensuring safer indoor air quality is important for the health and well-being of all building occupants.

In multi-tenant properties, coordination and communication are critical because work will affect shared spaces and sometimes tenant suites. Ownership or property management typically leads the project, but tenant input on access, scheduling, and any aesthetic limitations is important.

The mitigation system is usually installed in common areas – such as basements, shafts, and roofs – so that it serves all tenants collectively. Lease agreements and risk management policies may influence how costs and responsibilities are shared. Clear documentation and test reports help reassure tenants and support long-term occupancy.

Sealing visible cracks, joints, and slab penetrations can reduce some radon entry and improve the effectiveness of sub-slab depressurization. In commercial buildings, this often involves sealing along walls, control joints, column penetrations, and utility lines.

While sealing alone is almost never sufficient as a standalone mitigation method, it’s an important supporting measure. Good sealing helps create a stronger pressure differential under the slab and reduces system air leakage. It also has side benefits for moisture control, pest management, and overall building tightness.

Radon is measured using certified test devices placed throughout the building, typically at breathing level in occupied areas. For commercial structures, a test plan is created that accounts for building size, usage patterns, and HVAC operation. For large or multi-tenant properties, you may test a percentage of similar rooms or zones based on standards or guidelines. Results are reported in picocuries per liter (pCi/L) or becquerels per cubic meter (Bq/m³), and compared to action levels set by authorities.

In many commercial environments, visible piping on building exteriors or in public interiors must meet specific appearance standards. Designers can route piping through shafts, mechanical spaces, or service corridors to keep it out of sight where possible. When exterior runs are necessary, color-matched materials, architectural screening, or alignment with existing lines can reduce visual impact. On historic or high-profile buildings, more detailed coordination with architects may be required. Balancing aesthetics with functionality and service access is a routine part of commercial radon design.

Many commercial buildings have a mix of slab-on-grade, basements, crawl spaces, and possibly structural slabs over voids or parking. Each foundation type may require a different mitigation strategy, such as sub-slab depressurization for slabs and sub-membrane depressurization for crawl spaces. Design needs to ensure that all sections are integrated, so you don’t solve radon in one area while leaving another unprotected. Sometimes separate zones with independent fans are created for different sections of the building. Detailed mapping and phased work help manage complexity and ensure full coverage.

Commercial vs. Single-Family Mitigation

Commercial and multi-family radon mitigation often involves significantly more complexity than single-family homes.

The added complexity can occur in regulatory compliance, building dynamics assessment (especially stack effect and HVAC impacts), paperwork processes, system design, the installation process, general issue avoidance, and maintenance guidance.

Only a small percentage of the Midwest’s radon industry professionals are fully skilled in commercial or multi-family mitigation. Selecting a firm with extensive commercial experience can be pivotal in achieving a problem-free installation of a cost-efficient, effective radon system.
