Radon Mitigation Systems in New Albany, OH

Radon Mitigation Systems in New Albany involves sub-slab depressurization with an inline radon fan, sealed slab penetrations, and an exterior discharge stack above the eave line, working on the slab-to-soil interface and any below-grade openings where soil gas enters the home. The service is the standard installation for any Columbus home testing above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L on a 90-day or annual long-term average.

New Albany's post-1995 master-planned housing sits almost entirely on full poured concrete basements with an interior sump pit built in from the start, which makes standard sub-slab depressurization the low-disruption default here. Larger custom-built homes on the community's bigger lots sometimes combine a basement with a crawl-space addition, which can call for multi-zone mitigation rather than a single suction point. The small original village core on the Licking County side predates the master plan and has older, shallower foundations that need to be assessed on their own terms. Rocky Fork Creek runs through the master-planned community, and New Albany's footprint straddles the Franklin and Licking County line, a legacy of the original 1837 village sitting on the Licking County side. New Albany sits on geology that drives elevated regional radon exposure across the Columbus metro, including Franklin / Licking County.

Franklin County installs run on Devonian limestone-and-shale bedrock under a glacial till cap, and the county's EPA Zone 1 designation applies evenly across both the aged, cracked slabs common in Columbus's older neighborhoods and the more uniform poured basements of newer suburbs like Dublin and Hilliard, so the install method tracks foundation type more than location within the county.

In Ohio, radon mitigation is licensed work under ORC Chapter 3723 (Ohio Department of Health Radon Licensing Program), done to the state rules in OAC 3701-69; the consensus standard for existing homes is ANSI/AARST SGM-SF-2023. The Ohio Department of Health Radon Licensing Program oversees radon program compliance for New Albany, and Ohio licensure under ORC 3723.02 applies to any contractor performing mitigation work in the state.
