"Overall; it went well until the first driving rain which allowed water into the system. Had asked them about the pipe allowing water in and how that would affect the fan. They told me they warrantied their work and to not worry. They also said a drain hose would not allow water to bother the fan. For two weeks my readings had dropped to below 2 which is half the national average for needing the remediation (called them and said thank you). Then the rain hit and it has sounded sickly ever since without a break. For the first couple months; it sounded like someone threw in ball bearings to that fan. But since has just sounded sickly. Also have a radon of around 20; which is very unsatisfactory. I called them and told them the meter measuring inches of water equalized and I'm calling to have them come over to fix it. I asked if they had put enough sealant around the pipes. They said yes; and I looked and could find no problems with penetrations in floor being bad. He never came back over. I called several weeks later and left a message. No call back. Called a third time and no call back. I called the state radiation protection supervisor and she tried to get a hold of them. First they said they had the flu and would get back to her. They never called me. My advice to anyone dealing with radiation mitigation; would be not to use these people. I would also suggest they not move to Western Pennsylvania for two reasons. One is the pollution like radon which is abundant. Unless you want your kids to have lung cancer and other problems. They will never mention it to you before you move here. Most never find out. My dog had lung cancer after a few years; I have lung problems after a few years... my neighbor died of lung cancer a few years ago... this is a real issue people. Also, the state does not have authority to do much in this state apparently. I've also noticed many discrepancies with the state in other area's but that is not what we are talking about today. Just choose wisely. I've not mitigated my radon; nor have I had any real recourse; which is normal in this state. As is the level of experience in Western Pa. As it relates to national levels. Oh, if you do get sick here in western pa; you will likely die from the hospitals and staff here; though Pittsburgh has some good doctors; the rest of western pa is like going back 50 years in time; though they do well hiding that fact on outcomes. So your radon journey will be bad form cradle to grave in Western Pa. I've lost my time and money messing with this mitigation service. Found that the drain was installed incorrectly and made a p-trap just below the fan. This is the source of the problem ( I believe). Will have to be done over. Perhaps by myself when it cools down."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Radon testing costs around $450 on average, but you could pay between $150 and $800 for testing, depending on a few factors. The size of your house is one of the most significant cost factors, as your radon professional will have to set up additional tests for homes with larger footprints. The type of test can also have an impact on the cost. Finally, some radon testing companies will include a recommended protocol for radon mitigation, while others might charge $50 to $100 extra.

Since radon typically comes out of the soil, it is most commonly found in the lower levels of a home. In houses with basements, that's a common location for radon. Homes built directly on the ground may have radon on the ground floors. Radon can be found on the upper floors of the home, but often in lower concentrations than in lower levels.

Installing a mitigation system reduces radon levels, which can cause lung cancer, providing peace of mind and long-term health benefits. It can also increase your home’s value, as many buyers prefer properties with radon safety measures in place. The investment is relatively low compared to the potential health risks associated with prolonged radon exposure.

Costs depend on test type, home size, number of testing locations, and whether follow-up testing is required.

A professional indoor air quality inspection takes anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of your home and the number of necessary samples. After the test, the specialist will discuss the findings, but you won’t get a full written report for 2 to 10 days, though you can ask your pro to expedite the process, if needed.
