"Tim was quick to respond to my Anji request and came out within a couple days to set up the radon testing equipment. He was knowledgeable, communicated very well, and returned promptly to read the test and explain the results. I was very pleased with this radon pro. I would highly recommend him."
"Russ was awesome and so pleasant to work with. I didn't really understand Radon at the time so he took his time to explain it in detail. I highly recommend his services for radon testing!"
"Very reasonably priced, professional, thorough and responsive. All we needed was a radon inspection, but I wouldn't hesitate to hire Bill again should a need arise -- and I highly recommend him."
"Best home inspection ever. He showed up early, walkes us through every thing he saw as a current problem and/or building code violation and the next day I had a very detailed outline with poctures for every thing he saw wrong with the home. Three days later I had the radon report. Best building inspector I've ever had the pleasure to work with and at a great price."
Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts
No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is naturally present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid entirely. 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 action to reduce radon levels if your home's test results are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.
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.
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.
Testing every 2-5 years or upon adjusting occupancy or structural changes maintains safe environments.
No, radon mitigation systems do not decrease home value or make a home harder to sell. In areas where homes experience similar radon exposure risks, a radon mitigation system is viewed as an improvement. Potential homebuyers often opt to buy a home with a radon mitigation system already installed to reduce the risk of cancer for their families.
