Radon mitigation systems reduce indoor radon concentrations by up to 99 percent.

CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
2 sources for · 1 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that radon mitigation systems reduce indoor radon concentrations by up to 99 percent?

Partly. A systematic review and an energy study describe sub-slab depressurization as an effective radon mitigation method, but neither reports a percentage reduction. One reference work reports depressurization systems reducing indoor radon by 45-90 percent, which falls short of the claimed up-to-99 percent figure.
