"RADON SYSTEM WAS NOT WORKING. (Installed by another company years ago). The phone contact was pleasant and efficient. The Technician came on the agreed day and the agreed time: he explained what was wrong, explained the options, then repaired the system so it is working better than it did when first installed."

Work was done promptly and the crew was friendly and thorough.  They installed a cap over the floor drain that prevents air from infiltrating from the foundation drainage system while still allowing any water from the basement to escape should the washer overflow or a pipe break, etc.  As a result (and side benefit) my basement is less humid and no longer has that occasional musty smell.

Six months later and everything is working fine.  A retest for Radon showed virtually no presence whereas, before, tests showed a rather high concentration.

"In both spoken and written communication, this company was extremely professional. In the end they were a few thousand dollars higher in their estimate than the company I went with. If not for that I would have gone with EJS and I wouldn't hesitate to mention them to friends and family. I wanted to give them a good review here simply due to the level of courtesy, promptness, and professionalism they displayed.

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Your radon fan needs to operate 24/7 to be effective. The only time the fan isn't operating is during its replacement. Radon levels in the home can increase within hours if the fan stops working or something obstructs the stack vent. Fortunately, radon systems require no downtime maintenance between fan changes.

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.

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.

The soil beneath your house is most likely what’s causing an increased level of radon. This is because soil holds radioactivity for a long time and it’s also what most buildings are built on. Another common source of radon is water from a source that hasn’t been through periodic radon tests, such as well water. Over time, the radon from the soil can inhabit other parts of your house like the foundation or plumbing.

Long-term exposure increases lung cancer risks. Prolonged homestay individuals and smokers encounter heightened vulnerability and exposure concerns.
