"I recently hired Acceptable Environment to install a new radon mitigation system in my home in Warwick, NY, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first call, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. They walked me through the entire process clearly, answered all my questions about the system and what to expect, and scheduled the work promptly. The crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and installed the new system with minimal disruption to my household. They went above and beyond by carefully sealing the basement foundation and taking every precaution to contain dust and debris. When they finished, they cleaned up so thoroughly that you’d never know major work had just been done — no mess left behind at all. The best part? The post-mitigation testing came back with radon levels at just 0.3 pCi/L — down from well above EPA action levels before the install."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

If high radon levels are detected, steps include sealing entry points, installing a mitigation system, and retesting the air regularly to ensure reduced levels.

The natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water can cause radon to appear in a home. The gas seeps into homes through cracks in foundations, walls, or floors, as well as through gaps around pipes or construction joints. Radon levels are influenced by soil composition, building materials, and ventilation. Poorly sealed or airtight homes can trap radon, allowing it to accumulate.

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.

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is present everywhere, complete avoidance is impossible. 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 preventative measures if your home's radon levels are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

Radon is present almost everywhere but, like sunlight, the concentration levels and how often you are exposed to it have a large part to play in just how dangerous it is. There are levels of radon that are acceptable inside a house, but above a certain limit, radon becomes a serious radioactive hazard that is a known cause of lung cancer. In fact, radon exposure is the number two leading cause of lung cancer (after smoking).
