"They were prompt, efficient and courteous. They called to let me know they were on their way and cleaned up everything when they were done. They were supposed to explain something to me about some monitor after the installation, but they forgot. They did walk through how to do the radon test in another week. they also gave me a senior discount, which was definitely appreciated. Otherwise, their pricing was pretty much in the range with the other estimates I received."

"Zach Shipley of Clear Environmental took on the task of removing my extremely large inground swimming pool, filling the cavity and resodding the lawn. He and his crew were very professional in all aspects and he was very "hands-on" throughout the entire process. He was on-site for delivereies and to oversee the work and to keep me apprised of everything that was being done and how the job was progressing. It was a monumental job and he made it as painless as possible at a very competitive price. I would highly recommend Clear Environmental to anyone with a home or commercial project."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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.

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).

No level of radon is technically safe, but since it is naturally present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid entirely. 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 action to reduce radon levels if your home's test results are between 2 and 4 pCi/L or higher.

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.

The cost to replace a radon fan ranges from $300 to $600 for the fan itself, with installation adding an additional $200 to $500. Overall, the total cost for replacement can range from $500 to $1,100, depending on factors such as the fan model, home size, and local labor rates. If the fan is part of a larger radon mitigation system, the price may be higher.
