ated by the mitigation system. 

NOTE:

Although uncommon, some installations require more than one suction point or fan.

POST INSTALLATION RADON TESTING

We recommend a radon test after installation of the Radon Vac

TM

to confirm radon levels are reduced. Radon testing should

be performed periodically thereafter.

COMPANION PRODUCTS

Tjernlund offers other products that improve conditions under your home and reduce radon concentrations in basements
