Built Right from the Ground Up
Radon-resistant construction isn’t optional—it’s becoming the standard. Designing and installing systems correctly at the build stage is the most cost-effective and reliable way to protect occupants long-term.
At Great West Radon, we work with builders, developers, engineers, and project managers to ensure radon systems are properly integrated into new construction—whether residential subdivisions or large-scale commercial projects.
Commercial & Large-Scale Expertise
Commercial construction requires a higher level of planning, coordination, and technical execution.
We have extensive experience supporting:
-
Schools and institutional building
-
Warehouses and industrial facilities
-
Multi-unit residential development
-
Large commercial project
We understand how to design systems that align with project specs, timelines, and code requirements, including NBC 2019 (Alberta Edition) and applicable provincial standards.

If your project requires something outside standard residential scope, we can help you specify and procure the right solution.
Why It Matters
Poor radon rough-ins are one of the most common—and costly—mistakes in new construction. Once the slab is poured, fixing design flaws becomes significantly more expensive.
Getting it right during construction ensures:
-
Lower future mitigation costs
-
Better system performance
-
Compliance with evolving building codes
-
Long-term protection for occupants
