"Scott Bacon of Certified Radon Systems, LLC is the best! If you need radon mitigation, I highly recommend Scott Bacon and Certified Radon Systems, LLC. We saw a mansion for sale in another state online and bought it. Of course, there are lots of things to fix up with the new house, including radon mitigation. Before we even set foot in the house, Scott evaluated the property and set up a mitigation plan. He worked with us remotely, so we didnâ  t have any extra costs of flying out to the new home before we were ready to move. And he installed the equipment on time and without a single problem. Scott also followed up after the install and did some testing to make sure the systems worked properly. The house is enormous, but the cost for the mitigation systems was extremely affordable. Scott Bacon and Certified Radon Systems, LLC were ultra-reliable and did a fantastic job! If you need radon mitigation, use Certified Radon Systems, LLC. Youâ  ll get excellent customer service and peace of mind knowing you are working with professionals to safeguard your home."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

The cost for a radon mitigation system typically ranges from $800 to $1,500, with an average around $1,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the size of your home, the severity of the radon issue, and the type of system required. Your home's foundation type also significantly impacts the cost. For example, sealing and ventilating an unfinished basement might cost around $4,600, while encapsulating a crawl space without a foundation slab can range from $1,500 to $15,000.

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.

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.

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.
