"Joe knows radon.  He put in a system on short notice in my two story colonial with full basement.  I shopped around to two other Radon contractors and his was either the lowest or close to it, but he was also the first that I could schedule.  FYI: He said the overall cost was less because there was an existing sump pit.  We scheduled for the morning and I gave him access to the house.  By the time I got to the house at 11am he was done and gone with only the odor of fresh caulking, PVC pipes, and the muffled whirl of a fan.  The installation was professional with an acrylic custom cover cut to fit over the sump pit to keep debris out.  Plenty of signage and meters on the installed equipment indicating fan circuit, basically informing me and any future owner, "Do not shut this Off".  The radon reading in the basement was 25.4.  Joe was confident that once the system was in, it was going to be less than 1 (less than 4 is safe per EPA rules).  we tested three days later, and the official reading was 0.9.  Looking at the quality of work, I'd use him for any other venting related needs in this or future house.
He has an "F" grade from someone who complained about something not working after three months and he was going to charge a labor fee.  This is just my 2 cents, but don't think that was fair, as he does give you a 7 year warranty.  He warrants equipment for 7 years and will replace out equipment but there is a labor charge.  This is clearly spelled out in his contract.

"It was a little tough to get in touch with John at first as he apparently does home inspections part time, but once I did he was very prompt and was very thorough in his inspection. He explained everything in a manner that I could understand and answered all of my questions without being condescending. If he's still doing home inspections when I look to buy another house I'd certainly work with him again."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Radon is a cancer-causing radioactive gas that poses serious health risks, infiltrating homes through foundation cracks and unnoticed spaces.

No, air purifiers are not an effective way to reduce or remove radon. Radon is a radioactive, inert gas that cannot be filtered by standard air purifiers, which are designed to capture particulates like dust and mold. While an air purifier can improve indoor air quality by removing other pollutants, it should not be relied upon for radon. The only effective solution for high radon levels is a dedicated radon mitigation system.

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

The fan that pulls the radon out of the air needs to run continuously, so you may see an increase in your electric bill once you install the mitigation system. Additionally, you may see an increase in your heating or cooling bills, as the fan can cause some loss of hot or cool air.

The soil beneath your house is most likely what’s causing an increased level of radon. This is because soil holds radioactivity for a long time and it’s also what most buildings are built on. Another common source of radon is water from a source that hasn’t been through periodic radon tests, such as well water. Over time, the radon from the soil can inhabit other parts of your house like the foundation or plumbing.
