Q: Why is my radon mitigation system so loud?

• <div><p>Your radon mitigation system may be loud because it&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: What is the biggest source of radon?

• <div><p>The soil beneath your house is most likely what&rsquo;s causing an increased level of radon. This is because soil holds radioactivity for a long time and it&rsquo;s also what most buildings are built on. Another common source of radon is water from a source that hasn&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to live in a house with radon?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Can I use my sump pit for radon mitigation?

• <div><p>If your home has a sump pit, you can integrate it with a radon mitigation system. You can accomplish this by sealing the pump cover with an airtight lid that accommodates radon vent pipes and sump pump hoses. This allows the vent pipe to redirect the radon gas outside of your home.</p></div>

Q: How often should radon levels be tested to ensure safety?

• <div><p>Testing every 2-5 years or upon adjusting occupancy or structural changes maintains safe environments.</p></div>
