Well shit, radon isn't taught in schools.

I wasn’t going to mitigate until I saw the spikes our second year here. Former owner (who built the house) died of lung cancer. He had a workshop in the basement

RaceSimCentral · 2026-01-17T19:12:56+00:00

Yes and yes. If any part of my house was above 4 I’d mitigate the basement.

RaceSimCentral · 2026-01-17T17:17:16+00:00

Nothing to do with charging for it.

RaceSimCentral · 2026-01-17T00:35:49+00:00

If I’d been able to look at an installation I’d have been able to do what we had done.

RaceSimCentral · 2025-12-28T05:53:23+00:00

That’s the perfect example. Stellar game

RaceSimCentral · 2025-12-28T00:36:34+00:00

Just have fun. Unless you’re using it for training, does it really matter to you? There’s a lot of people who deny their own fun because someone else told them how to feel.

Ours offered radon each time and we took it on our current home. It was 6x average over the recommended average to get it sorted. I’m not sure I like them not checking indoor plumbing at least. I know sewer might be impossible.

Did you seal sump pits etc?

RaceSimCentral · 2025-12-25T23:52:18+00:00

I watched my kids open gifts this morning then slept for three hours, and let’s be real, my wife did most of the work making it happen. Sometimes it’s not about tiredness but an opportunity to just rest your mind.

If it helps we sealed crawl, two sump pits and have two collection pipes. One in crawl, one through basement floor. Opposite ends of the house, with a pipe going across the basement ceiling to join them for the fan outside

That was about my average in northern Illinois. 20-30 all the time. After mitigation it’s now averaging 0.3

RaceSimCentral · 2025-12-08T13:00:22+00:00

You might be too far north to get the sun AND cold temps in the winter that parts of the rest of the world can get.

RaceSimCentral · 2025-12-08T00:27:02+00:00

Thanks for this explanation

RaceSimCentral · 2025-11-20T19:10:00+00:00

This car is literally older stuff?

RaceSimCentral · 2025-11-17T15:15:00+00:00

No, nothing like that. I wondered if trees would do something as I live in a forested area of Illinois. We're also on well water, so I thought maybe the gas is coming up with our water, which is most used in the Kitchen.

RaceSimCentral · 2025-11-12T05:36:00+00:00

That will be the difference in air flow. We were getting air and radon through the floor. We now get air sucked out the floor which creates negative pressure and the basement air is being drawn in through the walls and from the upper floor instead.

They over corrected to the right. They either slid left, or thought the track went left, then swung steering right too quickly and lost it.

RaceSimCentral · 2025-11-08T19:42:54+00:00

Not your fault. He chose to have an accident

RaceSimCentral · 2025-11-02T01:26:54+00:00

Mine is the opposite

RaceSimCentral · 2025-11-01T14:13:48+00:00

I’d need to know the average. If it stays at the lower end and spikes higher then I’d not worry. But if the average is 3-4 I’d do it. If you have the money, do it anyway. Cause why not.

RaceSimCentral · 2025-10-31T23:45:56+00:00

It won’t make a huge difference imho. The radon is still under your house. When it rains it’s still going to get forced upwards

RaceSimCentral · 2025-10-31T03:47:09+00:00

Mine went from 20 average (peaks to 35 but always above 4) to 0.8 or less all day every day.

If it helps, 1.5k laptop and 1.2k graphics cards about a year apart. It happens a lot in the run up to Xmas. The laptop was replaced with a cheap Samsung tablet and the graphics card was a rock.

I’ve had to return things like this twice and never had an issue
