• <div><p>You'll need to test your home for radon after installing the mitigation system, then again every two years.

They may need to make some changes to improve its effectiveness and performance.</p></div>

Q: How much electricity does a radon mitigation system use?

• <div><p>The average radon mitigation system uses about 876 kWh of electricity per year, although the exact amount of electricity used will vary depending on the size of the radon fan. Once the system is installed, the annual increase to your energy bill could range from <b>$30 to $300 per year</b>, again depending on the size of the fan.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to replace a radon fan?

• <div><p>The cost to replace a radon fan ranges from $300 to $600 for the fan itself, with installation adding an additional $200 to $500. Overall, the total cost for replacement can range from $500 to $1,100, depending on factors such as the fan model, home size, and local labor rates. If the fan is part of a larger radon mitigation system, the price may be higher.</p></div>

Q: How does radon enter my home?

• <div><p>Radon enters your home when warm air begins to rise and exits through the roof, creating a vacuum that pulls cooler air from under the foundation. Part of that air is radon, which is an invisible, odorless gas that develops naturally when radioactive particles are deep within the ground. Those particles usually come from decaying matter in soil and rocks.</p></div>
