Do you want a radon mitigation system to protect your home in Little Canada?
As a naturally occurring radioactive gas, radon arises from the earth and can penetrate houses through cracks in the foundations or basements. Continued exposure to high levels of radon significantly elevates the risk of lung cancer.
Radon gas, while unseen and unfelt, is a genuine and serious hazard to homeowners. For a long-lasting solution to radon in your home in Little Canada, you should have a mitigation system in place.

Radon gas forms when uranium decays in the soil, and the gas often becomes trapped in homes built above. Because humans have no senses that can detect radon, many people in Little Canada live with a radon problem for many years before they realize it.
Many years of radon inhalation is likely to cause severe lung damage that may lead to the development of lung cancer. After smoking tobacco, radon gas is the second most common cause of lung cancer cases in the United States.
The purpose of a radon mitigation system is to take radon gas building up in the soil and move it out above your home so that it doesn’t become trapped. A correctly functioning radon mitigation system can remove 99% of radon from your home in Little Canada.
To build a radon mitigation system, your installers will create a system of pipes travelling from beneath your home’s foundation up to a rooftop vent. A fan is attached to these pipes to create pressure that expels radon out through the vent into the atmosphere, where it will harmlessly dissipate.
If you want to make your home totally radon-free, we’d be honored to help you achieve that goal. Contact One Day Radon today to have a radon mitigation system installed in your home in the Little Canada area!
