"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

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.

Your radon mitigation system may be loud because it’s time to replace it. Any sounds are usually from the inline fan that helps create the vacuum and resulting airflow. If you hear a new, loud mechanical or humming noise from your radon fan, it might be time to replace it. Most fans used in radon mitigation systems last up to 10 years, but may need to be replaced sooner.

The average radon mitigation system uses about 876 kWh of electricity per year, although the exact amount of electricity used will vary depending on the size of the radon fan. Once the system is installed, the annual increase to your energy bill could range from $30 to $300 per year, again depending on the size of the fan.

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.
