"They came back and checked on it when the levels weren't quite what they should be. I only have good things to say about them. They were very professional and knowledgeable. They seemed to have a lot of information about radon and how to have it removed from our house, and keep the levels down. The price was reasonable."

"This team was professional, as well as friendly and knowledgeableâ ¦gave us up front scenariosâ ¦ we didnâ t have to pay them before OR after the job was done (once the testing is done and we are SATISFIED, we are to pay the bill â ¦which was a little higher than the first company we contacted but the first company wanted payment up front and said nothing about OUR satisfaction). We were appreciative of the explanation of what was done and what WE needed to do to make sure the system was working properly. We got clear instructions on testing after installation. So far, so good! We are pleased."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

There are steps you can take as a homeowner to remediate radon yourself. While a radon reduction professional can make the biggest impact in your home, you can make efforts to improve radon levels on your own by sealing cracks, increasing ventilation, and testing for radon regularly.

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 natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water can cause radon to appear in a home. The gas seeps into homes through cracks in foundations, walls, or floors, as well as through gaps around pipes or construction joints. Radon levels are influenced by soil composition, building materials, and ventilation. Poorly sealed or airtight homes can trap radon, allowing it to accumulate.

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.

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is present everywhere, complete avoidance is impossible. 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 preventative measures if your home's radon levels are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.
