"I used Radon Abetment Services LLC to install a radon system in my basement. John and his team were excellent and I highly recommend them to anybody with this need. John was able via video over phone identify where the system should go. His team was extremely professional and courteous. The installation took a day and the improvement in radon levels was remarkable. We would absolutely use them again."

"I scheduled the radon testing with Bill. He was very thorough and accommodating. Bill agreed to meet my real estate agent at the property to set up the testing equipment. As promised, the test results were provided in a report format and after 48 hrs. Great service."

"Ryan was right on time both for the dropoff and pickup for doing a Radon test of my basement. He's a great communicator and is very personable! He was able to give me a fair assessment of the test results this time, how they related to the results I had gotten at closing of my home, giving me all the info necessary to feel comfortable on my plan of action. I would highly recommend him!"

"Very friendly, professional crew from the local area. I got the quote from Peter and had the system installed within a week. Very clean and solid installation. Time will tell how effective it is (still need to wait 48 hours to test the radon levels again) but I'm able to hear the fan through the drain (they covered the grate with a one-way drain) at the opposite corner of the house so it's definitely getting good coverage. No issues at all, I'd recommend them to anyone with either high radon levels or those just trying to reduce the radon levels in their living space!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Installing a mitigation system reduces radon levels, which can cause lung cancer, providing peace of mind and long-term health benefits. It can also increase your home’s value, as many buyers prefer properties with radon safety measures in place. The investment is relatively low compared to the potential health risks associated with prolonged radon exposure.

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.

Ideally, no one will live in a house with elevated radon levels, as prolonged exposure increases the risk of serious health issues like lung cancer. However, homes with radon can be made safe through mitigation systems, such as active soil depressurization. Testing for radon regularly and addressing high levels helps ensure a safe living environment.

The cost to replace a radon fan ranges from $300 to $600 for the fan itself, with installation adding an additional $200 to $500. Overall, the total cost for replacement can range from $500 to $1,100, depending on factors such as the fan model, home size, and local labor rates. If the fan is part of a larger radon mitigation system, the price may be higher.

The average radon mitigation system uses about 876 kWh of electricity per year, although the exact amount of electricity used will vary depending on the size of the radon fan. Once the system is installed, the annual increase to your energy bill could range from $30 to $300 per year, again depending on the size of the fan.
