"I would HIGHLY recommend Midwest Radon. Everyone we came in contact with at this company was so professional, so polite and so friendly. From the time I contacted Wes till the time the installers left, everyone was done with complete professionalism. On top of that, I have a HIGH confidence that the radon issue at my home has been rectified. "
"I found the experience, from the on-site quote, the explanation of services during the on-site quote, the ease of provision of all requested details before acceptance (including licensing information), the accuracy of what I was provided, contacting me to confirm go-ahead, the quality of work, the timeliness of work completion and cleanup (well inside the anticipated time window etr 3 hours, actual about 1.5 hours), the finished system solidity and finish, and the post-work explanation of what to expect, details about the system's operation, and the overnight radon monitor testing to be fantastic. I also very much liked that there was a range of payment methods, and as I opted for credit card, the payment process was simple and came to my email for me to review and pay. I had 20+ pCi/L in my basement (verified by my own testing apparatus) before work, and overnight I was down to 1 pCI/L. I felt the quote was competitive based on information sourced online prior to my consideration of the company. John Woods from Radon Mitigation Masters did an excellent job at each stage, and I would thoroughly recommend him and his company to anyone in the area needing Radon mitigation."
"Advanta set an appointment for someone to inspect. Their project manager Brandon Cook arrived promptly on time and made a careful inspection of the garage area and subsequently my basement where I had had a sump pump malfunction and substantial rainwater backup months before. In each case, he dismissed the concern of mold and explained areas where mold might develop and explanations as to what had probably caused the areas of concern. He was very professional, and helpful and reassuring with clear explanations. AdvantaClean did not charge for this inspection. I would definitely hire them if the need arose."
"Dan was great. He let me walk around and showed me what would be on his report. He talked me through a few simple recommendations as well. He was flexible and friendly. Dan did termite, Raydon, and general home inspection."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts
Mitigation can take several days depending on home setup, equipment accessibility, and achieving effective diffusion system sealed efficiency.
Many radon fans carry a five-year manufacturer's warranty. That said, your radon fan should last between five and ten years. Regular inspections will ensure the fan is operating properly. Unusual or exceptional noise coming from the fan or indications on your manometer or system monitor can immediately tell you that something is amiss.
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.
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.
Radon is a cancer-causing radioactive gas that poses serious health risks, infiltrating homes through foundation cracks and unnoticed spaces.
