People often ask, "Why don't you put rain caps on your exhaust pipes?" Leaving a pipe open to rain and snow might sound a little concerning, but radon mitigation systems are designed to deal with the amount of moisture that we experience in Minnesota. In this video, we explain why rain caps aren't necessary and discuss how different fittings affect airflow and exhaust trajectory.

We recommend checking the ANSI/AARST standards for the most accurate, up-to-date information.
