ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an apparatus and method for collecting and removing noxious gases including radon gas for the soil proximate a basement or other enclosure to minimize any health hazards. The apparatus includes a fan situated outside the enclosure that draws the noxious gas from the soil proximate a basement and dispenses it harmlessly into the atmosphere. A collection chamber component of this invention may alternatively also include a pump for disposing of fluids which may also seep into the collection chamber.
