This is a community for those who think that it's better to be safe than sorry, and that we need to start preparing now.

Uh! Makes you think. So the idea would be to have a lower underground room which you could "pump" out the gas?

Assuming energy is an issue, a passive pump might be able to be built through usage of a copper pipe by creating a thermosiphon (the exposed copper pipe outside would heat up creating hot air which would "siphon" the bottom air).

I guess the issue with living underground sre many: moisture, possible radon, water infiltration, pest, no good way of making a fire, etc...
