"Had a radon mitigation installed. Trenton was punctual, professional, competent and very knowledgeable. Answered all questions to my complete satisfaction. Adam, the electrician ,with AJR Electric was incredible as well. My radon readings started out at 8-12, they are now reading 1 or less!! Would definitely use again and recommend to others!"

"I was extremely impressed with the professionalism of both workmen. They listened to my concerns and we were able to come up with an alternative approach to placement of the system. They were able to provide protection of both areas of my home with one system instead of installing two separate Radon systems. The system was placed in the unfinished area of the basement leaving all my finished area untouched. They left the work space cleaner then it was when they started and made sure everything was put back in place. I highly recommend Tri State Radon and Mold, Inc."

"Lance is very knowledgeable and good with explaining the system. He gave the quote and also did the work. The company was able to accommodate my tight real estate needs timeline. One thing to have made it better would have been a quicker means of post testing the radon levels after installation. We had to go to another company to hire them to do the testing."

"It went great! I have a home where the system was not easy to install, but they stayed until it was finished. A test kit was left to see if it was working properly, but they added that they would return if our radon wasn't lowered. IT WAS!! Money very well spent"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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 level of radon is technically safe, but since it is naturally present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid entirely. The average radon level in homes across the United States is 1.3 picocuries per liter (pCi/L). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends taking action to reduce radon levels if your home's test results are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

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.

The soil beneath your house is most likely what’s causing an increased level of radon. This is because soil holds radioactivity for a long time and it’s also what most buildings are built on. Another common source of radon is water from a source that hasn’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.

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.
