The sump inside the house is tucked away in a piece of furniture that the client built. The exit point needs to be no higher than 30 inches and under the wood to the furnace to tuck it away from the wall. Can come out as close as possible to the soil line. Mainly, the client just wants it to be hidden inside as much as possible without having to rebuild anything int he future.

Customized Radon Solution for a Handy Homeowner with Specific Needs

For this two-point radon mitigation project, the system was carefully designed to respect both the home’s layout and the homeowner’s specific requests. With elevated radon levels and a finished basement, the system includes one extraction point beneath the stairs and a second near the basement’s exit wall—both routed discreetly and exiting near the home’s AC unit.

What made this install unique was the homeowner’s active involvement. As a skilled DIYer, he chose to core joist holes himself for cleaner pipe routing and even offered to repurpose an old dryer vent as an exit point. Our team supported his input while ensuring performance and compliance.
