Course Overview
Radon-resistant new construction is an integral part of the green building movement and these features can be an important selling point for health-conscious home-buyers. Using common materials and straightforward techniques, builders can easily construct new homes that are resistant to radon entry.
In this self-paced online course, gain a broad understanding of the construction methods that help reduce radon entry and accumulation in new buildings. Learn how radon gas behaves and how different factors, such as geology, air flow, and construction techniques, can alter its behavior.
Featured Topics
Completing this course will help you better understand:
- relevant building codes;
- design and construction techniques that can reduce indoor radon levels; and
- installation techniques that allow mitigators to convert passive systems into active systems by installing a fan.
Because this is a self-paced online program, you will be free to work on this course anytime and anywhere you choose. You can keep your business schedule on track while still sharpening your skills and completing your CE requirements.
NOTE: The course content is presented primarily through text and pictures. This is NOT a video-based course.
