"Bill was very professional, friendly, and patient with our questions from start to end. He explained the installation in detail along with providing pictures of what to expect. Within 24 hours of installation, Airthings Radon monitor reported a significant radon level drop. After one week, the Radon average has gone from 8.6 to 0.6 pCi/L. Thank you, Bill and Jose."
"They contacted us immediately and were here the next day to test our home for radon. They were very thorough and inspired confidence. They also gave us a report of what they found. Also resonable prices!"
"We were very happy with the crew who worked in our home. Very professional. Prepared the site so we could not tell they had even been in our home. Testing following the job indicated that the radon gas was leaving our home. Our radon level went from 12 to 0."
"Schan did a great job, very professional. He came out to see what the job was before he gave me a quote. I have a huge crawl space which took some time but he stuck with it to finish it in one day. Now I can breathe easier knowing it's taking care of right. I highly recommend Clean Air Radon Systems."
"Professional Radon System did an excellent job. They put the customer at ease. Work was done neatly installer explained everything thoroughly. I will use Professional Radon system again, and I will wii refer to family, friends and neighbors."
"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."
"Completely satisfied. Would certainly recommend them for Radon mitigation work. They worked efficiently, were neat and clean and the price was quite reasonable."
"He was very good! He discussed with the seller all of what he found in his inspection and was very professional. I will highly recommend him. He's a great guy!"
Radon Detection and Reduction FAQs, 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.
Installing a mitigation system reduces radon levels, which can cause lung cancer, providing peace of mind and long-term health benefits. It can also increase your home’s value, as many buyers prefer properties with radon safety measures in place. The investment is relatively low compared to the potential health risks associated with prolonged radon exposure.
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.
While DIY testing is possible, abatement generally requires professional installation to ensure efficacy and meet safety standards.
Use a radon test kit or hire professionals to conduct a detailed assessment of radon levels in your home.
