Under certain circumstances, a flexible pipe coupling, RadonAway
p/n 79019-1, may ease installation. This may be particularly
true of gable side installations where the system piping runs
perpendicular to the floor joists. Install the pipe coupling as
shown in Figure 6, making certain to avoid sharp bends or kinks
in the piping. (TIP: You may connect the pipe coupling to the
GP500 before installing the unit through the band joist.)
2.3 MUFFLER INSTALLATION (Optional)
Install the vent muffler assembly in the selected location in the
outlet ducting. Solvent weld all connections. The muffler is
normally installed at the end of the vent pipe.
2.4 OPERATION CHECKS & ANNUAL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
____ Verify all connections are tight and leak-free.
____ Ensure the GP500 and all ducting is secure and vibration-free.
____ Verify system vacuum pressure with Manometer or other pressure gauge. Ensure vacuum pressure is within
normal operating range and less than 3.8” WC (based on sea-level operation, at higher altitudes reduce by
about 4% per 1000 Feet). If this is exceeded, increase the number of suction points.
____ Verify Radon levels by testing to EPA Protocol and applicable testing standards.
