"JC Radon Solutions did a great job in the installation of our radon mitigation system. They arrived at the agreed time for both the proposal visit and then for the install work. The work area was kept clean during the install. A great job by a great company. I highly recommend JC Radon Solutions for radon mitigation work. Prior to the mitigation work, radon monitoring recorded average readings of 10. Now the readings are 3.5. Very pleased with the JC Radon Solutions system."

"We had a radon remediation installed by them in 2021. We've had to replace the fan 2x already- whereas the expected lifetime of a fan is 8-10 years."

"I consulted with Radon Doctor about my home. The four foot high basement had 5 pci in a 48 hour test. The first living floor was 1.5 pci in the same test. Radon Doctor advised me to monitor radon levels on the living floor over 6 months during winter season and get back to them for mitigation if needed. They did not take advantage of a single basement reading to insist I install a system that would not affect the living floor levels. These guys are legit."

"This business was highly recommended by my realtor. I hired this company to inspect the radon mitigation system prior to me buying a house. The owner, Sidad, was very responsive to my inquiries. The inspection price was reasonable, and he followed up promptly with the results on the inspection. I hired him to come out and fix the radon mitigation fan after purchasing my house. He was quick and efficient, and the price was reasonable. I highly recommend this business."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is naturally present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid entirely. 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 action to reduce radon levels if your home's test results are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

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.

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.

If high radon levels are detected, steps include sealing entry points, installing a mitigation system, and retesting the air regularly to ensure reduced levels.

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.
