"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."
"As a Realtor, Schan has done many of my clients' radon system install and they all were extremely please with his knowledge, install and his going above and beyond to make the system appealing from the exterior of the home. Many companies will not make the effort to ensure that the system does not look unsightly. Schan does and he is an expert at what he does. I would only recommend Schan to my clients!"
"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."
"Chuck was thorough, personable, and very helpful. He went above and beyond to give us helpful pointers and information that was beyond the scope of what was required for the inspection. I highly recommend his services! "
"Sidad was professional and he performed the radon test with state of art equipment. The radon test price was reasonable and I am happy to deal with him. I would refer to him for future test."
Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts
Radon is the number one non-smoking cause of lung cancer in the United States, but it can cause some other concerning side effects in the meantime. If you have a raspy voice, chest pains, trouble breathing, difficulty swallowing, or any of the above, don’t hesitate to perform radon testing and install a mitigation system as soon as possible.
There are steps you can take as a homeowner to remediate radon yourself. While a radon reduction professional can make the biggest impact in your home, you can make efforts to improve radon levels on your own by sealing cracks, increasing ventilation, and testing for radon regularly.
Mitigation reduces radon levels, protecting your health and complying with safety standards.
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.
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.
