Pouring the basement floor

I spoke with Doug yesterday about the radon pipe.  He will have the sub move  it to the fireplace area per the plan and cap off the other one for future use if needed.  I spoke to Willard Pearson of the BrickKicker homes inspections and he said you don’t need or want other fresh air vents in this type of setup.  The house actually creates pressure and having just the one pipe will actually blow the air out without a fan in most cases.  If we need to add a fan later we can.  This was backed up by a good publication from the EPA on building to prevent radon http://www.epa.gov/radon/images/buildradonout.pdf

They are pouring the floor this morning. I wish I could be there, but I’m going waterskiing.
