"Inspector was on time and explained everything to me. The report was returned a few days later and contained the current condition of the house I was buying, as well as preventive maintenance tips I should know. Coming from someone who doesn't know too much about home repair, I was thankful for the inspector's patience and willingness to explain all the details."

"Mike did an amazing job inspecting the home I am buying. He was incredibly thorough and took his time he wasn't rushed and didn't skip anything. An added bonus that I really appreciated was how well he explained different things that he noticed in and around the house. I never once felt like I was asking a stupid question when he had to go over something with me. He was very prompt with every question I emailed him and called to follow up on big things. The online report was sent promptly and it was really easy to look through. I would absolutely recommend him to my friends and family!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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).

Long-term exposure increases lung cancer risks. Prolonged homestay individuals and smokers encounter heightened vulnerability and exposure concerns.

Keeping radon from getting into your home is much better than having to get rid of it once it's already indoors. While there may not be a way to fully prevent radon from getting into your home, there are things you can do to reduce the gas's ability to enter. 

Sealing foundation cracks and openings can help keep the gas from seeping inside. Improving air flow, such as by opening windows, can also be helpful. If you're building your home from scratch, talk to your contractor about using radon-resistant construction to keep the gas out.
