Q: How does radon enter my home?

• <div><p>Radon enters your home when warm air begins to rise and exits through the roof, creating a vacuum that pulls cooler air from under the foundation. Part of that air is radon, which is an invisible, odorless gas that develops naturally when radioactive particles are deep within the ground. Those particles usually come from decaying matter in soil and rocks.</p></div>

Q: Do radon mitigation systems come with warranties?

• <div><p>Yes, many systems include warranties for performance. Confirm terms with your installer.</p></div>

Q: Why is radon gas abatement necessary for homes?

• <div><p>Radon is a cancer-causing radioactive gas that poses serious health risks, infiltrating homes through foundation cracks and unnoticed spaces.</p></div>

Q: Can I use my sump pit for radon mitigation?

• <div><p>If your home has a sump pit, you can integrate it with a radon mitigation system. You can accomplish this by sealing the pump cover with an airtight lid that accommodates radon vent pipes and sump pump hoses. This allows the vent pipe to redirect the radon gas outside of your home.</p></div>
