Mitigation & Maintenance
ARS specializes in one thing: installing and maintaining the systems that eliminate elevated radon in your home.
Testing Is Step One
Radon testing reveals the problem. Professional testing uses calibrated devices placed in your home for 48 hours (short-term) or 90+ days (long-term). The results tell us:
- Your current radon levels (measured in pCi/L)
- Whether mitigation is needed (the EPA recommends action at 4.0 pCi/L)
- Where to place the mitigation system for maximum effectiveness
Testing should always be performed by a certified professional using EPA-approved methods. ARS does not perform testing directly, but we can refer you to certified testers in your area.
Mitigation Systems
Sub-slab depressurization is the gold standard for radon mitigation and the most common solution for Illinois homes. We design and install a system custom to your home's construction, foundation type, and radon levels.
- Sub-slab depressurization (SSD)
- Block wall suction systems
- Crawl space encapsulation + venting
- Sump pump integration
- System monitoring with U-tube manometer
- Post-install verification test referral
Per IEMA 422.150, all Illinois mitigation systems must be installed by a certified mitigator. ARS holds current IEMA certification.
