Q: How long does a radon mitigation system last?

• <div><p>The lifespan of a radon mitigation system depends on the type of system and its maintenance. With proper care, a system can last for many decades. Passive systems tend to last longer as they have fewer components that require replacement. Active systems, which have more moving parts like fans, generally have a shorter lifespan. For instance, water filtration devices and active pressurization systems require more frequent maintenance. While the system as a whole is durable, the radon fan in an active system typically has a lifespan of 5 to 10 years and will need to be replaced. As long as the fan is working, the mitigation system should function correctly.</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: What are the benefits of radon mitigation?

• <div><p>Mitigation reduces radon levels, protecting your health and complying with safety standards.</p></div>

Q: How long does radon mitigation take?

• <div><p>Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the system and property layout.</p></div>

Q: How long does the radon abatement process usually take?

• <div><p>Mitigation can take several days depending on home setup, equipment accessibility, and achieving effective diffusion system sealed efficiency.</p></div>
