The most important part of your radon mitigation system
PDS carries a full line of Fantech and RadonAway fans, as well as our patented KTA Low Voltage fan systems for easy install. An energy-efficient radon fan is often the most important part of your radon mitigation system. Sizing a radon fan is not always intuitive: bigger does not necessarily mean better. Understand your pressure field extension with the PFEDK. If you’re installing your fan outside the home,
don’t forget a condensate bypass–it can add years to your fan life!
Things to look for: RadonAway’s ProSeries Fans offer an EverWhite Housing that will stay white for years when compared with other fan housings–however their warranties are only valid for certified contractor installations. KTA Low Voltage Fans offer a simple install up to 100′ away from an electrical outlet. The KTA 2.0 has a built in ANSI/AARST Radon Alarm. Fantech’s PDS-150 is an industry standard and offers superior performance at low power (energy star rated).
Radon fans in the US should only be installed in one of three places:
Please contact PDS or a licensed mitigation professional to ensure you get the right fan for your home.When installing yourself,
consider purchasing an entry level micro-manometer so you can understand the pressure field extension beneath your home. At PDS we do not carry Festa Radon fans; however we can help you find an available fan in a similar classification. Call, text, or email and have the model number handy.

With the exception of the Rn4EC, most radon mitigation fans fall into two categories: high-suction or high-volume. High-volume radon mitigation fans typically move more air with less resistance. These fans work best with high pressure field extension and porous soil conditions. Radon fans in this high-volume category include the Rn3 and the RP 265 by RadonAway. When these fans encounter low pressure field extension or “tighter soils”, they tend to “max out” quicker. As always, utilize a micromanometer, the pressure field extension diagnostic kit, or PDS by phone to properly size your fan.
