Waverly questions, answered straight
How do I find a passive radon pipe?
Look in the attic for a capped 3–4 inch PVC run exiting the roof, often labeled, originating below the basement slab. If it exists and your test is elevated, a credentialed contractor can add an in-line fan and indicator — a smaller job than a retrofit.
Should mitigation happens before finishing the basement?
Yes. An open basement is when suction placement and routing are cheapest and most flexible, and finishing over a mitigated, verified slab locks the outcome in.
Is a newer home less likely to test high?
No. Radon comes from the soil beneath the slab, and Nebraska soils produce it regardless of build year while tight construction holds what enters. Passive features reduce levels without guaranteeing a result below 4 pCi/L.
