Need advise. We have no mugginess in the basement, but do have water issues. They began after we installed the radon system (they found radon in the basement and installed a system to divert the gas out of the basement, they needed to block the french drain for that). So we're looking to waterproof the basement. We've had 6 different companies giving us estimates. All came within $3K difference from each other. Our problem is that they're not all using the system to waterproof the basement.
We need advise, help!!!! |

Where as an old fella may not worry about being above ground for much longer, those who value health may want to do more than just "install a bath fan in a window to hande Radon Gas....
for a proper installation here is an example of what is entailed in an installation- www . wpb-radon . com/Radon_system_photos . html |

Replace one of your basement wondows with an exhust fan you can buy at Lowes or home depot. Shouldn't cost you more then a C-note. Remember they'll make you test when you sell your house.

Hate to disagree with you VA, but that ain't no autocorrect ;)... That's a flat out spelling mistake.

They may not have matured yet, I suggest keeping them in a dark closet deep in the basement then

What kinds of "whines " do you keep in your cellar?

Classic.
Possibly the greatest autocorrect in the history of the fora. |
