Commercial Vapor Barriers

An airtight sub-slab vapor barrier is crucial for vapor intrusion mitigation as it prevents harmful gases, like radon or volatile organic compounds (VOCs), from seeping into the building through the foundation. By creating a continuous, impermeable seal beneath the slab, it effectively blocks the migration of these contaminants, improving indoor air quality and safeguarding the health of occupants. Having a manufacturer certification for these systems ensures that the materials and installation meet established quality standards, providing assurance of durability, performance, and long-term effectiveness in protecting against vapor intrusion.

Lifetime Environmental Solutions is certified and recommended by numerous manufactures and have successfully completed the installation of millions of square feet. We also include and conduct Smoke Testing of all of our sealed systems.

Learn More About Radon

Radon is a radioactive gas that forms from the breakdown of uranium in the soil. Once formed, it rises from the soil to dissipate into the air. Generally the outdoor air level for radon gas ranges from 0.4pCi/L to 0.7pCi/L which is generally considered safe. The issue with radon gas comes when radon has nowhere to dissipate. When a structure blocks it’s path up from the soil, radon will find a way inside to continue rising.

The EPA estimates that around 21,000 Americans die every year from lung cancer caused by radon gas exposure. That is 48.8 times the amount of deaths caused by carbon monoxide poisoning. Radon gas is not something to ignore as we spend most of our time indoors working, sleeping, and spending time with family. Radon is a silent killer and could be lurking in your commercial property. Don’t wait to take action, give us a call today to set up a test!

​Radon gas can seep into a structure through cracks in the floor, open crawl spaces, sump crocks, and even pores of the concrete. Once inside, radon tends to stay put with nowhere else to go, and will start to build up. It takes approximately 4 days for radon gas to dissipate on its own inside of a structure, but the problem is that it is constantly rising. If there is not a radon mitigation system venting it out before it has a chance to get in, the trapped radon gas will stay constant.

During the decay chain of radon gas, it produces what are known as radon daughters. Radon daughters are radioactive particles that can attach to dust, water vapor, and smoke in the air, which is what makes them dangerous. If inhaled over a long period of time, these radioactive particles will cause damage to the lining of the lungs which in turn can cause lung cancer.

Ensuring worker safety is mandated by law, and commercial building radon testing is essential to fulfilling this obligation. The American National Standard Institute, in collaboration with the American Association of Radon Scientists and Technologists, has developed the most up-to-date protocols for radon testing in commercial buildings. We should examine and test for radon levels in all basement areas and occupied rooms above the garages.
