"We hired Mr. Joeseph Danes, owner, of Apex Radon LLC in Boise, to mitigate radon in our home. This was not a simple project: our house has a partial slab, a section of full basement, and two crawl spaces. Apex Radon LLC was the only Boise company that could conduct under slab pressure tests. We admit that we are not the easiest homeowners to work with â two retired mechanical engineers. Other contractors have likely found us exasperating. To our delight, Joeseph matched our high standards and attention to detail. We found him to be hard working, very knowledgeable, thorough, professional, and personable. Because of our homeâ s complexity, Mr. Danes designed a two-stage system. Stage 1 has been installed and radon concentration throughout the house has already dropped below the USA recommended level. This may change in the winter when frozen ground can cause indoor radon to increase. If so, we will gladly hire Apex Radon to install Stage 2."

"Craig Burton, the person who responded to my call and conducted the air quality testing was highly professional and enlightened me about the process from start to finish. Beyond the actual samples taken indoors and outside my home to set up the differential readings needed, he took moisture & thermal readings in the area of concern. I felt confident when samples were sent off that mine would not be confused with anyone elseâ s and that the manner in which they were conducted would assure accurate testing."

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.

Radon detection is crucial as prolonged exposure to radon gas, a leading cause of lung cancer, poses significant health risks in residential environments.

A homeowner can install a radon mitigation system on their own. But it’s a challenging DIY that requires a lot of knowledge about radon mitigation as well as familiarity with local regulations. You do not want to risk an improper installation that leaves the system unable to detect radon or gives it a shortened life span. Relying on a professional is the surest way to guarantee a successful installation.

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.

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.
