The Many Ways Radon Can Enter a Premises

There are many different common ways for radon to enter your premises. Since it comes in a gas form, it can easily infiltrate many different types of spaces. For example, it can seep through cracks in concrete slabs, or through spaces located behind brick veneer walls that rest on any uncapped foundations of hollow block. It can also seep through cracks and pours in concrete blocks, wall joints, floor joints, exposed soil, via a weeping drain that is drained to an open sump, mortar joints, open tops of block walls, pipe penetrations that are loose fitting, rock and soil building materials and through good water although it is typically not a major source for homes.
