"Alex and his crew showed up exactly on time and were very professional throughout the whole process. They asked me where I wanted the exhaust pipes placed as there were many options. After the work was completed Alex left a radon testing canister and explained how to use it. The pCi/L reading before the mitigation was 7 pCi/L and after it was < 0.4 pCi/L. To top things off, Alpha also has a great warranty. I couldn't be more pleased."

"The technicians were very quick and professional. The mitigation system install did not take long at all. They didn’t bother to seal off the sump pump cover so radon continued to come into the house. The techs brought up the fact that my sump pump cover would need seals off while they were here the first time but didn’t do anything for it. Now need another appointment for them to come look at it again and see what the next steps will be. Still cannot safely spend time within my finished basement and next appointment is well beyond a week away."

"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."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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).

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.

You'll need to test your home for radon after installing the mitigation system, then again every two years. If radon remains elevated, contact a licensed radon professional, either the contractor who installed the system or a different one, and have them evaluate the system. They may need to make some changes to improve its effectiveness and performance.

Many radon fans carry a five-year manufacturer's warranty. That said, your radon fan should last between five and ten years. Regular inspections will ensure the fan is operating properly. Unusual or exceptional noise coming from the fan or indications on your manometer or system monitor can immediately tell you that something is amiss.
