And then we have the chance of radon gas entering basements

and installing INT drainage systems do NOT stop the gas that enters through ext cracks, mortar joints, gas pipes etc and some of these INT systems allow MORE radon gas into the stupid basements.


–cracks in concrete slabs (don’t forget the THINNER perimeter concrete they put back in & lol if often cracks)
–spaces behind brick veneer…
–pores and cracks in concrete blocks
–FLOOR–WALLS JOINTS, duhhh!
–exposed soil, as in sump or crawl space
–weeping (drain) tile, if drained to open sump
–mortar joints
–loose fitting pipe penetrations (like the EXT gas line gaps etc in videos)
–open tops of block walls
–well water
–don’t forget deteriorated rod holes etc

We’re working on directing the water into the basement sump pump pit. We can’t think about Radon now, too! :roll_eyes:

INT system bullshtt, GAPS between F-wall and their STOOOOOOOOOPID white crap sticking UP from floor edge

sometimes some of 'em put in that BLACK cheap O crap, again gaps all along F-wall, easy access for radon
