RadonAway Easy Read Manometer



Radon Meter
This item arrived in a timely manner an in pristine shape. It was a snap to install. Taking about ten minutes. It operates exactly as it should. Good product.

Great simple gauge
Easy to install, this gauge provides ready insight into the functioning of your radon mitigation system.
When I first installed my radon fan I noticed that the gauge was at zero despite the fan running. Without the gauge I would've assumed that the radon system was working but in fact the reading lead to further exploration of a problem. Due to the pitch of one of the pipes in the attic some rainwater had accumulated and prevented the air from flowing properly. After I adjusted the pipe angle and removed the water, the gauge showed a difference of .5 inches WC which indicated good airflow. About a month later I noted that the pressure reading shot up to 2 inches WC. I discovered water had seeped into the radon pit occluding the airflow due to a nearby broken downspout . So this simple gauge can give you a good indication of the effectiveness of your radon system.

Easy to Install
Bought this with my RP145 fan.

It is simple to install. Just drill a small hole in your pipe and put the included pipe through.
