"I think they did a thorough job, however a small issue with the flashing was missed. It had been caulked which allowed water to seep through the brick. All in all, I had a good experience."

"John was very eager to work around my schedule. Although my husband and I arrived a little late for our scheduled time, he and his team of pros were already hard at work. He was very helpful and courteous. Because the seller had not left the garage unlocked the day of the inspection, John went back out on his own time a few days later to inspect the garage. He went above and beyond and I would definately recommend him to friends. Thanks!"

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.

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the system and property layout.

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.

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.

Radon detection is crucial as prolonged exposure to radon gas, a leading cause of lung cancer, poses significant health risks in residential environments.
