My lot is about 2-3 miles South of Florissant Fosil Bed park & 1 mile West off Teller Co 1

Same redish gravel, DG as we call it, Decomposed Granite (high Radon). That listing says Not For Sale?

They call this area a bananna belt, they don't know what they are talkin about because banannas will not grow here. hehe

Yes, PV solar on that roof would work great! but I won't put a bunch of holes in my new Decra shake look steel shingles.

Looking into HD hangers that go on before steel roofing.

So it would be pretty easy to build in the tube, backdraft damper, & pump during construction, but with my ridge vent it may not do much?

BTW, you shouldn't obstruct your gable end vents, they usually barely do the job of removing moisture in Winter.

Radon abatement can involve positive air pressure into basement.
