Radon System Maintenance & Fan Replacement in Chicago Area

We Service All Systems

DuPage Radon Contractors has highly trained, expert technicians to service and maintain all radon mitigation systems regardless of whether they installed the system, or it was installed by another radon mitigation contractor. All custom radon mitigation systems require regular inspection and occasional maintenance to ensure correct ongoing function in order to maintain proper indoor radon levels. Our highly trained technicians can perform fan replacement, repairs, re-caulking a sump cover, removal of a system for re-siding, or installing or activating a passive system.

54 Point Inspection & Tune-up

Additionally, as part of the package, the technician will provide two home tests to detect radon gas and walk you through the instructions on how to set the tests up.

Replace
Radon Fan

Eventually, the radon fan will need replacement, but sometimes it is just a tripped GFCI, which we can verify and help you solve over the phone for free. Call us for fan replacement pricing.

Removal
for Re-Siding

We can remove and reinstall your unit to facilitate replacement of siding or other remodeling needs. Call for pricing.

Repair
Crawl Plastic

If the plastic covering your crawl floor is ripped or punctured, it should be patched or replaced. DuPage Radon Contractors can solve this issue.

Other
Repairs & Services

DuPage Radon Contractors can perform any changes or repair your radon system needs. We can move the system, re-pipe it, add suction points for a new addition, or bring it up to current standards. Small repairs are at time and materials charges, with jobs over three hours usually bid, so you know your costs.

DuPage Radon Contractors can also activate an existing passive system (usually installed during new construction) by inserting a fan, connecting the electric, caulking as needed, installing a pressure gauge and any needed sump covers and checking the radon mitigation functioning of the system.

Another service they can provide is help if you are residing or changing or remodeling the exterior of your home. They can temporarily remove the outside parts of a system and return after the exterior changes have been completed, to reinstall it. Upon reinstallation, they can check the radon mitigation functionality.

Did you
Know...?

  • HAVING AN ISSUE?

    There is a gauge on your system that measures suction. It is usually located near the main suction point. Check the levels of the liquid in this gauge. If they are level, try resetting the GFCI (see below). If the levels are still even, give us a call.

  • CHECK GFCI FIRST!

    Before you call us, it is helpful to see if the GFCI circuit has tripped. This can save you the cost of a service call. Some systems have a GFCI outlet near the U-tube gauge or near the primary suction point. Press the Test button, then the Reset button. Now re-check the u-tube gauge . If it is uneven, you have fixed the issue. If not, call us.

  • LONG FAN LIFE

    Replacement radon fans installed by DuPage Radon Contractors are usually the RadonAway® brand. These are the industry-leading fan radon fan and they typically last 7-12 years.

  • UP TO CODE

    When doing maintenance, such as radon fan replacement or caulking a sump cover, we will inform you of any code violations and will supply you with pricing for the repairs. You can decide if you would like to bring the system up to current standards. State statute indicates that we must do all or none of the upgrades.

  • NO SUMP PIT SUCTION

    Installing the main suction point into the sump pit is a practice that used to be employed but is no longer allowed by radon regulatory agencies except in unusual situations. Only a secondary pipe can enter the sump pit. We can update your system to meet current standards.

  • CAULK IS NOT TO STOP RADON

    Once an active system is installed, the radon follows the suction and does not tend to push through the floor cracks. Floor cracks are caulked to reduce leakage of the systems suction and to keep from sucking heated or cooled air out of the building .
