Frequently Asked Questions
Vapor intrusion occurs when volatile chemicals from contaminated soil or groundwater migrate as gas into the indoor air of nearby buildings. These chemicals can seep through cracks in foundations, utility lines, or other openings, posing health risks to occupants.
The intrusion process is influenced by various factors, including the type of contaminants, soil composition, and building structures, which can make it challenging to detect without proper testing and assessment.
The most common chemicals that cause vapor intrusion are volatile organic compounds (VOCs), such as trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (PCE), as well as petroleum hydrocarbons like benzene.
These chemicals are typically found in industrial solvents, fuels, or other hazardous substances that may have been improperly disposed of or spilled, contaminating the surrounding soil and groundwater.
Testing for vapor intrusion involves a combination of soil gas sampling, indoor air testing, and sub-slab vapor sampling. At New Jersey sites, we follow the state’s regulatory guidelines, using advanced techniques to measure chemical concentrations in the subsurface and indoor air.
The cost of a vapor intrusion mitigation system can vary depending on factors such as the size of the building, the type of contamination, and the complexity of the site. We recommend scheduling a thorough site assessment to determine the most effective and cost-efficient mitigation solution for your needs.
