Though there are many different ways to mitigate a house, Active Soil Depressurization (ASD) (as opposed to Passive systems) is the most common and effective solution for lowering elevated Radon levels in your home here in Massachusetts. These are the type of systems that I see most of the time while inspecting homes. Active systems include PVC vent piping and a fan system which is highly recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
The Active Soil Depressurization concept is really quite simple. In the lowest level of the home, a four to six inch hole is cored (drilled) into the sub-slab. Soil and/or stone is then removed through the cored hole to create a hollow pit.

 
 
 Then...a series of PVC pipes are inserted into the drilled hole and are completely sealed as they run vertically alongside the foundation (or interior walls) in order to properly exit the building.      
       
 
 
 
The piping will either exit the house at the top of the foundation to the rear ... more
