"Nick and Dori were wonderful to work with! They were kind and responsive and so, so thorough. Our radon levels were super high and they were able to install the mitigation system efficiently and professionally. I highly recommend them for mitigation, but also just for testing and any other questions even if you donâ t need mitigation. Overall, a wonderful experience. I wish no one had radon problems, but if you do, youâ re lucky to get to work with this company."

"This year, my shop was in the basement (I make turned wooden bowls) radon level inexplicably increased from the 2.5 - 4.0 level to 8.0 - 11.0 level. I decided I was not going to work down there unless I did something about radon abatement. The guys said I needed one port under my basement floor, but I opted for two --- one near the exit port of the system and one in the center of the house. I had crushed stone and a vapor barrier under the floor, but radon was still getting in. After the installation lasting 3 hours, twenty-seven hours after install, the level was 0.83. Now after 1 week the level is 0.48 I am ok with that. I have not seen the results from the lab yet, but my continuous meter has been a good indication of what is happening. I am concerned now about radon in my drinking water, but cannot comment on that yet. Dick P Alna, ME"

"He was on time, arrived at 9am as quoted and began to install the system. The system required two suction points and a sump pit cover. The sump pit originally had a pedestal pump in place and none of the other radon companies would change the pedestal pump to a submersible pump as required for the mitigation system to function properly. Rhino Radon not only changed the pump but installed a back flow check valve to ensure proper functioning of the system. All of the other companies said we would have to employ a plumber or a handy man to get this done. Had we gone that route the closing would not have happened. Rhino Radon gladly did all the work required and didn't even break for lunch!!! He was more concerned with getting us out of the vacant house seeing we are already down the cape. The system that involved a crawl space and being vented through the garage roof was completed immaculately and the test results came back at 0.5 pCil/L. This pleased the lender and buyer and exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Rhino Radon Services.

Radon Detection and Reduction FAQs, answered by experts

Keeping radon from getting into your home is much better than having to get rid of it once it's already indoors. While there may not be a way to fully prevent radon from getting into your home, there are things you can do to reduce the gas's ability to enter. 

Sealing foundation cracks and openings can help keep the gas from seeping inside. Improving air flow, such as by opening windows, can also be helpful. If you're building your home from scratch, talk to your contractor about using radon-resistant construction to keep the gas out.

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.

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.

Radon enters your home when warm air begins to rise and exits through the roof, creating a vacuum that pulls cooler air from under the foundation. Part of that air is radon, which is an invisible, odorless gas that develops naturally when radioactive particles are deep within the ground. Those particles usually come from decaying matter in soil and rocks.

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.
