"Ashley work ethic is the embodiment of professionalism. She was open and upfront about the process and the time it would take to complete the inspection. I am no slouch. I have a little bit above-average weekend warrior DIY experience, and she pointed out items and issues that I would never have noticed. Not only was she thorough and efficient, but she was also empathic. During a home inspection, you hope for the best while bracing for the worst. If there was a possible negative, she softened the blow by sharing her own home-owning and remodeling experiences with me. Not only did I feel confident that I was closing on the right home, I am confident that I chose the right home inspector. I feel compelled to pay it off faster just so I can hire her to help me with making another home purchase!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

If your home has a sump pit, you can integrate it with a radon mitigation system. You can accomplish this by sealing the pump cover with an airtight lid that accommodates radon vent pipes and sump pump hoses. This allows the vent pipe to redirect the radon gas outside of your home.

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.

Your radon fan needs to operate 24/7 to be effective. The only time the fan isn't operating is during its replacement. Radon levels in the home can increase within hours if the fan stops working or something obstructs the stack vent. Fortunately, radon systems require no downtime maintenance between fan changes.

Mitigation reduces radon levels, protecting your health and complying with safety standards.
