Municipal vs. Single-Family Mitigation

Municipal 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 government or municipal building radon mitigation. Selecting a firm with extensive commercial experience can be pivotal in achieving a problem-free installation of a cost-efficient, effective radon system.

Municipal Radon Mitigation FAQs 

Here are answers to common inquiries about radon mitigation for municipal buildings. Feel free to reach out for further details.

Radon mitigation for municipal or government building can be complex. Inexperienced radon mitigation firms may design a system that isn’t as cost-effective or that affects the buildings aesthetics in a negative way. Perhaps more importantly, they can make mistakes that could delay the process, incur cost overruns, increase occupant exposure, increase insurance or litigation liabilities, add maintenance costs, or shorten system lifespan. DuPage Radon Contractor’s team is exceptionally well-trained and well-versed in these processes, ensures a seamless installation.

Radon is an invisible, odorless radioactive gas that is linked to lung cancer. Radon’s alpha particles break the lung’s DNA chains, and if the body makes a mistake fixing it, lung cancer can occur. Radon mitigation can truly save lives and reduce an organization’s insurance and litigation risks.

To stop a gas you can’t see, the standard mitigation process simply redirects it. This is achieved by drilling a hole through the slab into the substrate and connecting it to a pipe that leads to a specialized fan mounted on the building’s exterior. This fan runs non-stop, pulling the radon out from under the foundation and venting it through a vertical stack that exhausts safely above the roofline. In rare cases where the building’s layout is particularly complex, the home may also require an air-to-air heat exchanger or specific HVAC adjustments to maintain proper pressure and air quality.

We execute our radon system installations efficiently to minimize disruption, coordinating with the facility’s schedule to ensure a seamless process. Evening or weekend installations are available, and barricades and protection screens can be utilized to protect occupants. Unmarked trucks or non-uniformed installers can be utilized to reduce noticeability.

The installation timeline can vary depending on facility size and complexity, but we strive to execute projects swiftly with minimal inconvenience.

After installation, radon testing is recommended to verify the radon mitigation system’s effectiveness. Moving forward, we recommend testing every two years – or using a continuous monitor – to verify the ongoing integrity and performance of the mitigation system.

Parts and installation typically have a five-year warranty.

Radon systems rely on the porosity and connectivity (between foundation areas) of the building’s substrate layer to maintain high efficiency levels. Blueprints give information on both of these qualities, sometimes enabling great cost savings by facilitating a reduction in the number of systems or suction points needed. It also helps better identify possible fan locations, impacting aesthetics.

Common locations include libraries, park districts, jails, penitentiaries, prisons, police stations, fire stations, city and town halls, community centers, capitol buildings, courtrooms, and other civic buildings.
