Concealed mechanical ventilation Radon Systems increase indoor moisture saturation in hot, humid clilmates. These often hidden systems can deliver twenty to several hundred pounds of water vapor into a home each day, and in most cases they cannot be turned off. The water vapor soaks into furniture, drapes, carpets, clothing, photographs, books, building materials, etc. causing the growth of mold, bacteria and insects (roaches) Some "experts" claim that the air conditioner will remove such water, but air conditioners are already often overloaded, and besides, air conditioners do not work all the time. Unless the radon system is disabled or modified or a powerful dehumidifier made is installed and run full time, mold problems will increas over time. It may take six months to six years for thehome to become wet enough to have severe mold problems.
