"The owner of the company, Phil Tantella, spent time on the phone with me giving me lots of information beyond what his scope involved. He was so helpful and knowledgeable. Working with his company was a good experience from start to finish. The process takes time, and Phil stayed in touch, keeping me up-to-date so I could move forward with other planning."

"Very Professional followed all federal, city, and state guidelines to conduct a mold assessment. Provided a comprehensive report that wad thorough and straightforward making it easily understandable and made themselves available due to my immediate concerns and went above and beyond my expectations. Very upfront and doesnâ t sugar coat anything by telling you things are fine or arenâ t fine but instead details the specifics and explains what exactly he is doing when heâ s doing it to help better inform you of how to not only prevent the growth of visible mold but how to best limit the exposure to it and most importantly he wore proper safety equipment gloves mask and shoe covers and respectively followed all COVID-19 guidelines set in place. Mike knows what heâ s doing, heâ s got the credentials and the experience and knowledge and he applied everything in an unbiased mold assessment of my apartment for a reasonable price. I would highly recommend him and would suggest reading his reviews before considering others because he is clearly a well respected and reputable resource in the areas he specializes in and his work proofs that! Thanks Mike Brandon"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

The average radon mitigation system uses about 876 kWh of electricity per year, although the exact amount of electricity used will vary depending on the size of the radon fan. Once the system is installed, the annual increase to your energy bill could range from $30 to $300 per year, again depending on the size of the fan.

Use a radon test kit or hire professionals to conduct a detailed assessment of radon levels in your home.

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.

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.

Your radon mitigation system may be loud because it’s time to replace it. Any sounds are usually from the inline fan that helps create the vacuum and resulting airflow. If you hear a new, loud mechanical or humming noise from your radon fan, it might be time to replace it. Most fans used in radon mitigation systems last up to 10 years, but may need to be replaced sooner.
