Radon mitigation in Galena
What Galena homes mean for radon mitigation
Galena's old village core along Hoover Reservoir has older basements, some stone or block, built well before any radon code existed, while the newer subdivision ring around the village follows the post-1995 pattern of poured basements with sumps and passive stacks. Soil-gas entry differs by generation: the older stock takes on gas through the wall as much as the slab, while the newer stock is a cleaner sub-slab suction candidate. Delaware County's glacial till keeps the whole village inside EPA Zone 1.
Galena sits directly on the shore of Hoover Reservoir, the Big Walnut Creek impoundment that supplies much of Columbus's drinking water.
