Radon Mitigation Photo Album: Radon Mitigation System Replacement Planned for Lakeside Home
This project focuses on relocating a noisy radon mitigation system away from the bedroom. The new system is planned for installation near the boiler, with piping routed above the Bilco doors and along the exterior of the home. Anti-vibration clamps and a muffler will be added to help reduce operating noise, and the old exterior pipe will be capped. The completed installation will provide a more suitable system location while continuing to address radon entry from the foundation.
