Vapor Intrusion Mitigation System Design
SSDS Design, Vapor Barriers & Post-Mitigation Verification
Once sampling confirms a vapor intrusion pathway, the next question is what to build. We design sub-slab depressurization systems and vapor barriers, oversee the install, and run the post-mitigation sampling that proves the building is clear.

What's Included in an Envicon Vapor Intrusion Mitigation Engagement
Sub-Slab Depressurization System (SSDS) Design
Pilot testing and vacuum influence measurement, suction-point layout, piping and blower sizing, and stamped drawings and specifications ready for bid and permit.
Vapor Barrier & New-Construction Design
Passive and active vapor barrier detailing for new slabs, including penetration sealing, riser stub-ups, and conversion-ready design so a passive system can be activated later.
Installation Oversight & Commissioning
Contractor bid support, construction observation, and commissioning with vacuum field verification, flow and pressure readings, and an as-built record.
Post-Mitigation Verification & O&M
Indoor air and sub-slab confirmation sampling after startup, plus the monitoring, alarm checks, and annual O&M documentation agencies expect for the life of the system.
When Vapor Intrusion Mitigation Is Required
- Sub-slab or indoor air results exceed NJDEP or NYSDEC-NYSDOH screening levels
- A remedy or Response Action Outcome requires an engineering control
- New construction is planned over a site with residual VOCs
- An NYC (E) Designation or CEQR determination requires vapor controls
- A lender or tenant requires mitigation before occupancy
- An existing system is failing, undersized, or has no O&M record
Vapor exceedance on a building you need occupied?
Send the sampling data and the building details and we'll return a mitigation design, an installation cost range, and a schedule to occupancy.
