@@tonyzone8999 No idea, sorry. I try to pay cash for everything as it typically give the best price. In this case, they came down from $9300 to $8700. Worth it to me. The cheapest bid was just under 7K, but with cheaper material and not as good of a sealed installation. Hope this helps.
@@Atreid3s As I stated, I had lower bids, but I chose this one due to the higher thickness membrane, more thorough installation (sealing), and warranty. It’s worth my family’s health for a little more $, and it’s essentially capsulated now. We went from 8.0, to .0.3 in both crawl spaces. Money well spent.
There are EPA maps for each state showing the average radon levels per county broken down into 3 Zones of potential radon levels. Just because you live in a certain zone does not directly indicate the radon levels of your house, it is completely dependent on the geology below your house combined with the negative pressure your house creates. Houses or apartments right next to each other can potentially have drastically different radon levels. Only way to know for sure is to test.
How long do these radon mitigation systems last? Or when does the fan need replaced? Mine is 13 years old. The fan is noisy, but still seems to work. Got a quote years back for $500 to replace the fan.
Buy a new fan (should be roughly $100 - $150). You can probably buy the same model. You can easily replace the fan yourself because radon mitigation systems are installed with the expectation to replace the fan in the future.
@@eagles5769 try a passive system first (without fan); you can always add the fan later if passive is not effective. I installed just the pipe in my basement sump vented it out and the pressure differences between outside and inside of house were sufficient to drive radon levels from 17 picoCuries/L to less than 2.0.
