"I wanted to have the fan for a Radon mitigation system installed in the attic area above my garage, but knew that access from my basement to the garage would require routing of the mitigation pipe above a dropped ceiling in the finished portion of my basement. Only two of the four companies that I'd contacted were willing to quote a garage attic fan installation, and SWAT Environmental's quoted cost was lower than that of their competitor. As a consequence, I suggested that SWAT send a representative to review my installation to ensure that the cost that they'd quoted for a garage attic fan installation wouldn't need to be adjusted. SWAT's representative, Jayme, arrived at my home at the scheduled time, reviewed the installation and agreed that a garage attic fan installation could be accomplished for the quoted price, but indicated that I'd have to call the office to schedule an appointment because his schedule (and those of other installers) was already booked. I called and was able to schedule an appointment for Jayme to perform an installation a couple of weeks later. Despite a later than expected arrival, Jayme was able to complete the majority of the installation (pipe routing, wiring and fan installation) before he had to leave. He returned to complete the installation (cover and seal the sump pump pit) about a week later when a second appointment could be scheduled. I initiated the post-mitigation Radon level test with the kit that had been left with me a week after the mitigation installation was completed and ran the test for five days. The report from the test lab indicated that the radon level in the "living space" area of my basement had dropped from a high reading of 8 pCi/L (in pre-mitigation tests) to 1.2 pCi/L and this post-mitigation value was confirmed by comparison with a Radon monitor that I'd purchased through amazon.com that indicated a "long-term average" of 1.24 pCi/L for the same five days. It's apparent that the Radon mitigation effort in my home was successful. I'd have no concerns about recommending SWAT Environmental to others for Radon mitigation."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

While DIY testing is possible, abatement generally requires professional installation to ensure efficacy and meet safety standards.

Long-term exposure increases lung cancer risks. Prolonged homestay individuals and smokers encounter heightened vulnerability and exposure concerns.

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.
