"Corey was great to work with. He arrived on time and communicated well throughout the process. I appreciated how thorough he was in the home inspection, it gave me confidence that I'd know and be able to prioritize future home repairs. I opted to get the radon test as well and was glad I did. I learned that my home had radon levels nearly 5x the "safe" amount. After the inspection I now have peace of mind and know the important details about my new home. I'd recommend Corey and Viking Inspections to anyone in the North Idaho area looking for a home inspector."
"So happy that we reached out to Radon Solutions NW when the system that we had installed by Premier Basement Systems wasn't working. They were able to fix it right away! Brandi is knowledgeable, professional, and effective. Highly recommend."
"Dave first off cares about his customers health and well being. He is interested in solving your Radon issue and making sure the work is high quality. He pulls proper permitting for electrical and his support team is awesome. The other Radon company that was used did not meet specific standards in doing Radon migitgation work. Do your homework and read reviews before hiring a Radon company and check certifications: https://nrpp.info/. Dave takes his profession seriously and has a tremendous background in this work. I highly recommend Advanced Radon Technologies."
"This company was professional from start to finish! Setting up the appointment was quick and easy, they showed up on time and were concerned with my needs. They wanted to make sure the system was going in the proper spot, both inside and outside, and wore a mask and booties the whole time. I was impressed and will hire them again!"

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.
No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is present everywhere, complete avoidance is impossible. The average radon level in homes across the United States is 1.3 picocuries per liter (pCi/L). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends taking preventative measures if your home's radon levels are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.
Radon is a cancer-causing radioactive gas that poses serious health risks, infiltrating homes through foundation cracks and unnoticed spaces.
Ideally, no one will live in a house with elevated radon levels, as prolonged exposure increases the risk of serious health issues like lung cancer. However, homes with radon can be made safe through mitigation systems, such as active soil depressurization. Testing for radon regularly and addressing high levels helps ensure a safe living environment.
Keeping radon from getting into your home is much better than having to get rid of it once it's already indoors. While there may not be a way to fully prevent radon from getting into your home, there are things you can do to reduce the gas's ability to enter.
Sealing foundation cracks and openings can help keep the gas from seeping inside. Improving air flow, such as by opening windows, can also be helpful. If you're building your home from scratch, talk to your contractor about using radon-resistant construction to keep the gas out.
