"Best price, best home inspection report I have ever seen (w/pictures), and knows his stuff. Did a radon test for us too and he worked hard to get our results under a time crunch. Very glad we went with him. Found a structural fault with the home deck and saved us some serious money. Thank you Schawn!!"

"We recently hired Patrick Sullivan after contacting another company for mold testing. He was very professional and overall nice guy. The other company we had contacted wanted to overkill on tests we did not need. We are currently in pending process of the sale of our home, which is why a mold test was needed. Upon home inspection, possible mold was found. The buyer wanted it tested and contacted Patrick to make sure he approved of him as well. Last but not least , Patrick went through the areas of house that were possible mold, spent time giving plenty of info. and was very helpful. Reasonable prices, knowledgeable, and professional."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

The lifespan of a radon mitigation system depends on the type of system and its maintenance. With proper care, a system can last for many decades. Passive systems tend to last longer as they have fewer components that require replacement. Active systems, which have more moving parts like fans, generally have a shorter lifespan. For instance, water filtration devices and active pressurization systems require more frequent maintenance. While the system as a whole is durable, the radon fan in an active system typically has a lifespan of 5 to 10 years and will need to be replaced. As long as the fan is working, the mitigation system should function correctly.

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.
