Description


The book helps to highlight what I consider to be the real dangers of radon and why all residential structures should include venting soil gas in the most efficient manner possible. The book contains over 85 pictures charts and graphs that help explain what we are seeing in the field. The text is simple and to the point. A very quick read. There is a chapter to help real estate agents with radon pipe identification and how to distinguish from pipes leading to the sewer. There is a chapter dedicated to help builders minimize errors in the field and why this is the best approach for your customers. The final chapter summarizes our field observations with modern science to paint a different picture of radon exposure and what it really means to us and our families.
