Sub Membrane Depressurization in Colorado Springs, CO 80909

Radon is a radioactive gas that naturally occurs in the soil and can seep into homes, increasing the risk of lung cancer, especially in areas with poor ventilation. In this project, Purple Mountain Radon addressed the high radon levels in a home in Colorado Springs, where the family had a newborn. The issue stemmed from exposed soil in an un-encapsulated crawlspace, which allowed radon to enter the home. The team encapsulated the crawlspace with a vapor barrier to meet radon mitigation standards and attached it to the radon system. The challenge arose when the homeowner requested part of the crawlspace to be used for storage, leading to the installation of a dimpled plastic drainage mat and a thicker 20mil vapor barrier for added protection and airflow. This solution not only met the radon standards but also provided a practical storage space for the homeowner.
