 Radon Mitigation System With No Sump Pump

Not every home has a sump pump, and that doesn't mean a radon mitigation system is off the table — it just means the system has to be designed differently. Instead of routing through an existing sump pit, we design a custom venting path suited to your home's specific foundation and layout.

​

The goal is the same as any mitigation system: draw radon gas from beneath your home and vent it safely outside using a continuously running fan, keeping it from building up indoors. The difference is entirely in how the system is engineered around your foundation, not in how effective it is.

​

This option is common in older homes, homes built on slab foundations, and homes where a sump pump was never installed. Our certified specialists evaluate your foundation and design a system that fits it, so you get the same permanent radon reduction as a standard install. We serve Altoona and the surrounding Des Moines metro, including Ankeny, Urbandale, and Johnston.

No Sump Pump Radon Mitigation FAQs.

  • Yes — a sump pump isn't required. We design a custom venting system suited to your specific foundation, so homes without one still get the same permanent radon reduction as a standard install.

  • The end goal is identical — drawing radon from beneath your home and venting it safely outside with a continuously running fan. The difference is in how the system is engineered around your foundation instead of routing through an existing sump pit.

  • Our custom No Sump Pump system is a flat $1,800, which includes the custom design work, installation, and ongoing radon level reduction.

  • It's common in older homes, homes on slab foundations, and any home where a sump pump was never installed. Our certified specialists evaluate your specific foundation to determine the right approach.

  • Yes — effectiveness comes from proper design and installation, not from whether a sump pump is involved. A correctly designed custom system reduces radon levels just as reliably.

  • Our five-year limited warranty covers the complete radon mitigation system and fan as we installed it, starting on your install date. It covers defects in materials, system components and our installation workmanship. If a covered problem comes up, we repair or replace the part, or correct the work, at no charge for parts and labor. We don’t charge a service-call or diagnostic fee for a covered claim.

    ​

    The warranty doesn’t cover damage from misuse, floods, fire, lightning, storms, falling debris or power surges, or from repairs and changes made by someone other than us. It also doesn’t guarantee a specific radon level in the future, since changes to the home, like foundation work or new construction, can affect radon levels.

    ​

    To request service, call us at (515) 783-6566 with your address, your install date and a description of the problem. We’ll arrange an assessment and explain whether the issue is covered. If it isn’t, we’ll tell you why and give you an estimate before doing any billable work. Read the full warranty terms here.
