Radon Gas Mitigation Photo Album: Radon Abatement in SE Calgary, AB
A homeowner in Calgary, Alberta contacted us after he completed a radon test and the results over the Canadian Action level of 200. 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 a Certified Radon Mitigation Professional, he contacted the experts at Doug Lacey's Basement Systems.
A System Design Specialist was able to visit the homeowner, assess the situation, and provide him with a FREE, no obligation quote. From there, our Radon Mitigation Specialist was able to install a sub-slab Radon Gas Mitigation System which draws the gas from beneath the basement floor slab and vents it outside of the home. Now the homeowner can rest easy knowing he has the best solution in place to bring the Radon levels down.
