Radon Fan Maintenance and Replacement

A mitigation system needs periodic checks to keep doing its job.

What to check, and how often

Check the system's warning indicator — a manometer or gauge — monthly. Listen for unusual fan noise quarterly, since it can signal a failing fan before it fully stops. Have the system professionally serviced annually.

Lifespan

A well-maintained system typically lasts 15–20 years, though the fan itself may need replacement every 10–15 years. Retesting every two years confirms the system is still holding levels down — the fastest way to catch a fan that's failed silently.

Already have a system?
