"I anticipated this service would be very costly and that coercion would be used for additional testing beyond what I desired. I was wrong! Omega Safety and Environmental was nothing like that. Costs seemed reasonable and I was given advice regarding reasonable and practical remedies that meet EPA guidelines. Very professional work ethic!"

"I wanted to install a radon remediation system for several years but I was not sure who to hire for installation. I found the website for Elite on Angies List and Google. I decided to call and select them for the install. The team did a great job and was very professional."

"Radon level in basement was too high so we hired SWAT to put in an exhaust fan and pipe to release excess radon gas. This was done to rectify a problem with home inspection; then house sold and we moved."

"All I can say about this company is "WOW!" I was having BIG condensation issues in my crawlspace. I had tried using box fans to help out and leaving the vents open, but nothing helped. I got in touch with Pure Protection at the end of July or the first of August. They called me and set up a time to meet immediately. In fact I was blown away that they met me on a Saturday, which worked great for me. After going in my crawlspace they saw the "condensation" from the high humidity problem that I was having. While checking the area, they saw that I was beginning to have a mold issue. This very much concerned me, but very quickly they put my mind at ease by letting me know that this could be rectified. After talking with Dan and Ryan at length I decided that I would like to have a quote to have mold remediation done and a total encapsulation of my crawlspace. That would mean that they would take out all of my insulation, and install a dehumidifier, and an exhaust fan in the area to keep everything dry ALL the time! In just a few days Dan and Ryan came by to bring the quote and sit down and go over every detail of it. After looking over it completely, I told them that I wanted it completed as soon as they could put me on their schedule. They came out and began work around the end of September. They came early, stayed late, and worked all the time they were here. Part of the time was when we were having a lot of rain. That did not stop them. They set up a tent outside the crawlspace and worked, just like it was sunny outside. Throughout the process Dan kept me updated on what was going on. Dan, Ryan, and Ken were very professional, friendly, and hard-working. I have been blown away by their professionalism, and wanting to please the customer in every way. Now I can say that I have a "completely dry" crawlspace, and I am so proud of it. Dan contacted me and set up a time in November to come by and make sure everything was going great, and it sure was. What more can a customer ask? Thanks, Pure Protection, and Dan, Ryan, and Ken for making me have a crawlspace that I am so proud of, and for making sure I live in a healthy environment!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

No, air purifiers are not an effective way to reduce or remove radon. Radon is a radioactive, inert gas that cannot be filtered by standard air purifiers, which are designed to capture particulates like dust and mold. While an air purifier can improve indoor air quality by removing other pollutants, it should not be relied upon for radon. The only effective solution for high radon levels is a dedicated radon mitigation system.

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.

Yes, many systems include warranties for performance. Confirm terms with your installer.

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.

If your home has a sump pit, you can integrate it with a radon mitigation system. You can accomplish this by sealing the pump cover with an airtight lid that accommodates radon vent pipes and sump pump hoses. This allows the vent pipe to redirect the radon gas outside of your home.
