Has a 5 year warranty!

This fan is used to evacuate soil gases like Radon, Methane and other harmful gases emitted from the soil. It comes with 3″ collars so it can be used with our Instadry Sump Kit™ and Sump Basin. Mitigating soil gases is very important to the health of everyone living in the home. Most soil gases cause a very unpleasant odor even after encapsulation, but Radon does not have an odor and is deadly. Read more about Radon Gas from the EPA.

This fan will also help to control moisture in the crawl space by removing it from under the barrier. This method makes a small impact, but is a positive by product of its use in soil gas mitigation.

The basin’s new, contemporary, lightweight design will now allow you to take it in to the crawl space already assembled or in two separate pieces. The anti flow plate has now been made a part of the basin itself, and is no longer a separate piece that you have to put together. The bottom ribbed surface makes assembly fast and easy. It goes together with just a “snap”. The new basin now uses slots instead of predrilled holes for better water flow and water pressure. Whether you’re a contractor or DIYer, this basin is the product you’ve been looking for.

Felt550™ Has Two Significant Uses In A Crawl Space

Puncture Strength

The Felt550™ is made from virgin Polypropylene and woven into an lightweight and extremely punture resistant material. There is no organic material used when making this product so it will naturally resist mold and mildew growth. In fact, the Felt550™ was designed and engineered to be in contact with water and the earth 100% of the time. Putting all of these features together makes it perfect to use under a crawl space liner or vapor barrier to protect it from sharp stones, rocks and othe debris.

Soil Gas Mitigation

Crawl spaces are harsh environments and with that comes considerations in air quality. One of the most serious is Radon Gas, because it is a killer. The Felt 550™ plays an important roll in Radon Gas Mitigation. The Felt 550™ creates an air gap between the vapor barrier and the soil, enhancing the results of the active Radon fan(s). Allowing the fans(s) to keep a negative pressure on all parts of the crawl space floor and eliminating any “pockets” that seep the gas into the space.
The Felt 550™ also plays a key part in mitigating other soil gasses that cause odor. As we continue to do research on the best ways to fix the problems with air quality, energy loss and moisture levels we discover new problems and their solution. One of those new problems is soil gas odor(other than Radon Gas). This problem is not everywhere and it has nothing to do with our vapor barriers causing the smell (other plastics have been found to contribute depending on their makeup and additives). Like with Radon Gas, the Felt 550™ enhances the results of the fan to mitigate the odor.
