"National Radon Defense Midwest employees were very knowledgeable and helpful. As we were selling our house we discovered that we had high radon readings and needed to mitigate the problem. They explained to us the process and clearly identified what they would recommend to resolve the issue. We thought it was very reasonably priced and feel confident intheir products, staff and installation"

"They installed a Radon Mitigation system in a house I was selling. They had the best price, the experience I wanted, and were able to install a few days after I called. Technician was very nice and efficient in getting it installed. Good warranty too. I had my system installed in an encapsulated crawl space."

Customers say: True professional

"Jeremy was very professional and did a great job. He had reached out after I scheduled the original appointment to reschedule due to poor weather conditions. He offered to move the appointment to a date/time that he usually doesn t work to accomodate my needs. Once he had finished his work, he walked my fiance and I through everything explained it all very clearly. He also thoroughly explained the process for testing radon levels and getting test results back after the mitigation installation was complete. Would definitely recommend his services as he did a great job and his quote was very competitive."

"Luis got in touch with me quickly once I asked for a quote. We set up an inspection and he was very accommodating and scheduled one very quickly. Once the inspection was complete, he prepared the report very quickly. Even after the initial inspection he is still in touch and he has given some pointers on the issues that need to be worked on. I highly recommend Luis for anyone that is looking for a true professional that wants things done quickly and effectively."

"Calls were returned promptly.  A fee is charged for an estimate.  If you proceed with the estimated repairs, the estimate is credited against the total charges for the repairs.  The work was scheduled for a specific date and time and was completed exactly as promised.  The roof was shingled in 2001 and EJS found the exact shingles used so that the repair is entirely invisible.  The source of the leak turned out to be improper initial installation of the shingles around the vent stack by another roofing company.  All the interactions with EJS were professional and they let me know they stand behind the work they have done.  I would use this company again because of their obvious expertise, skill, dependability and courtesy.

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of a radon mitigation system depends on the type of system and its maintenance. With proper care, a system can last for many decades. Passive systems tend to last longer as they have fewer components that require replacement. Active systems, which have more moving parts like fans, generally have a shorter lifespan. For instance, water filtration devices and active pressurization systems require more frequent maintenance. While the system as a whole is durable, the radon fan in an active system typically has a lifespan of 5 to 10 years and will need to be replaced. As long as the fan is working, the mitigation system should function correctly.

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.

Testing every 2-5 years or upon adjusting occupancy or structural changes maintains safe environments.

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.

Installing a mitigation system reduces radon levels, which can cause lung cancer, providing peace of mind and long-term health benefits. It can also increase your home’s value, as many buyers prefer properties with radon safety measures in place. The investment is relatively low compared to the potential health risks associated with prolonged radon exposure.
