A garage attic installation of your radon mitigation system gives you a hidden component nobody will be able to bump into or see so often. This attic-installed system is usually installed through the garage area where the radon vent fan is in the garage attic. Having a radon mitigation system in your home will help you remove radon gas that can be deadly and harmful for you and your family.
What Components Do These Garage Attic Installation Systems Have?
To do this installation in the garage attic you will need these components:
* The radon suction pipes that are installed in the basement or any cracks and seals and go into the soil. This is done so that the radon and any other kind of soil gas can be drawn into the suction pipes through the soil.
* This suction pipe then goes up the foundation wall and comes into the garage. It then continues to go up the wall of the garage and into the ceiling.
* The radon vent fan is then installed into the suction pipes above the garage in the attic space.
* Then, from the radon vent fan, the radon exhaust pipe goes through the roof of the house where a water-tight roof boot is also installed.
A garage attic installation is also known as sub-slab depressurization garage attic installation, and a lot of piping is involved in this process. The system works by creating negative pressure under your houses foundation where all the radon gas is collected, which is then mitigated from home.
