After testing their home for Radon Gas these homeowners in Southwest Calgary, AB found that their levels were quite high, and over the Health Canada Recommendation of 150-200 Baquerals. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has become the second-leading cause of lung cancer, second only to cigarette smoke. Most soils contain uranium that, over time, decays to produce radium and polonium. Eventually, polonium is released with the radon, which creates a high toxicity level in the air and water that it infuses. In search of the best solution to address their concern, and protect their health & home, the homeowners contacted the experts at Doug Lacey's Basement Systems. A System Design Specialist went to the home to assess the situation, and provide the homeowners with a FREE, no obligation quote designed specific to address all of their concerns. From there our Radon Mitigation Specialist was able to install a sub-slab Radon Gas Mitigation System. The system was tied into the homeowner's existing sump system by replacing their sump basin lid with one of our own. This mitigation system draws the gas from beneath the basement floor slab and vents it outside of the home.
