Radon System Problem? |
It has been raining for the past 5 or 6 days. I just heard what sounds to be water dripping inside one of the pipes of our homes Radon Removal System. Do you know if this is normal, or should the whole system be a dry process with nothing but air? To First Answer...No, I don't smoke. Look on the roof. If there is a vent termination then rain is probably falling into it. OR if it is cold enough water can condense in the pipe and drip. Both are normal but contact your local Building Inspection/Safety Dept for help If there are no contact #'s on the equipment itself. Radon is a radioactive gas that seeps out of the ground naturally. If it is allowed to build up in a house it can cause health problems. That is what the removal system is for. good question...if you smoke though i wouldnt worry about it. Better chance of lung cancer that way than radon any old day. |
