"Well I just officially became a snowbirder and purchased a home in one of the 55+ communities in Florida. when I moved in there were some odors that I wasn’t sure where they come from. the home appeared to be spotless but there was a Strong odor and I thought it’s from where it’s been closed up. I couldn’t sleep the first night because the older was so strong. I called Mr. Vanderpool to see if there was anything he could do. came out right away and sprayed the bedroom. sprayed the whole house then looked around and did other testing in the ducts and told me what it was all out about and charged me what I thought was an exceptionally low price, like 30% less than other quotes. He was very careful and helpful in making me understand what had been done. Next night no odor. I would recommend him to to anyone. Thanks Ray."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

The natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water can cause radon to appear in a home. The gas seeps into homes through cracks in foundations, walls, or floors, as well as through gaps around pipes or construction joints. Radon levels are influenced by soil composition, building materials, and ventilation. Poorly sealed or airtight homes can trap radon, allowing it to accumulate.

No, radon mitigation systems do not decrease home value or make a home harder to sell. In areas where homes experience similar radon exposure risks, a radon mitigation system is viewed as an improvement. Potential homebuyers often opt to buy a home with a radon mitigation system already installed to reduce the risk of cancer for their families.

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.

You'll need to test your home for radon after installing the mitigation system, then again every two years. If radon remains elevated, contact a licensed radon professional, either the contractor who installed the system or a different one, and have them evaluate the system. They may need to make some changes to improve its effectiveness and performance.

You can vent radon out of your house sometimes by simply opening a window, but it won’t remove the source, and will likely rise above recommended levels quickly. A professional will be needed to assess your home, and determine the best strategy for radon removal. Active radon sump pumps and soil depressurization systems are often used to forcefully vent the radon from your home.
