Download or read book Consumer s Guide to Radon Reduction written by United States. Environmental Protection Agency and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You cannot see, smell or taste radon. But it still may be a problem in your home. When you breathe air containing radon, you increase your risk for respiratory issues. Radon has been classified as a known human carcinogen and has been recognized as a significant health problem by groups such as the Centers for Disease Control, the American Lung Association, the American Medical Association, and the American Public Health Association. As such, risks from in-home radon exposure have been a major concern for the EPA. The "Consumer's Guide to Radon Reduction: How to Fix Your Home" Contains information about home radon mitigation: radon reduction techniques and radon reduction systems.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indoor radon reduction measures were tested in 40 existing houses with significantly evaluated radon concentrations in eastern Pennsylvania. In all but one, soil gas was the predominant source of the radon. The houses all had basements, sometimes with an adjoining slab-on-grade or crawl-space wing. Most of the radon mitigation techniques involved some form of active soil ventilation. In addition, three heat recovery ventilators (HRVs) were tested, and two carbon filters were tested for removing radon from well water. The tests showed that significant radon reductions (90 - 99%) can be achieved with properly designed active soil ventilation systems. In basement houses with concrete floor slabs, suction on perimeter drain tiles can be very effective when a reasonably complete loop of drain tiles exist. Sub-slab suction (with individual suction pipes penetrating the sub-slab region) would be the next technique of choice, though it can be important that the suction pipes be carefully located when sub-slab permeability is poor. Ventilation of block wall cavities can give less predictable results. HRVs can provide moderate radon reductions (usually no greater than about 50% for reasonably sized HRVs), although their effectiveness in different parts of a house cannot always be reliably predicted. Carbon filtration can remove significant amounts of radon from water (up to 95-99%), at least over the 9-month period that they were tested in this study. The source of the carbon can be very important.

This book was released on 2014-10-09 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radon is a radioactive gas that has been found in homes all over the United States. It comes from the natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water and gets into the air you breathe. Radon typically moves up through the ground to the air above and into your home through cracks and other holes in the foundation. Radon can also enter your home through well water. Your home can trap radon inside.
