What Is a Radon Mitigation Fan?
Radon is a potentially harmful natural gas that is present in huge swathes of the United States. A radon mitigation fan system helps reduce radon gas levels in your home.
A high-grade radon mitigation fan is designed to target radon gas and keep your radon levels below the EPA’s recommended safety threshold of 4 pCi/L.
These specialized devices are in-line fans that draw radon gas from beneath a building and vent it safely outdoors. Usually, we install these in attics, garages, or exterior walls. They’re specially designed for continuous operation, so you can sleep well knowing you’re taken care of.

FAQs
How do I know if I need a radon mitigation fan?
If radon testing shows levels above 4.0 pCi/L (the EPA action level), a radon mitigation fan system is recommended to reduce exposure.
Can I install a radon fan myself?
It’s possible for particularly skilled DIYers, but we recommend hiring a professional. Radon mitigation fans are complex, and a professional can guarantee the system is compliant and properly ventilated.
How long do radon mitigation fans last?
Most fans last 5–10 years, but it depends on usage and other environmental conditions.
Will the fan remove all radon from my home?
It won’t necessarily remove radon completely, but a properly installed fan system can usually reduce levels well below the EPA guideline for safety.
