Customers say: True professional

"We were very pleased with the radon mitigation work done by Radon Specialists, LLC. The price was fair, the work was done on schedule and exactly as we wished. Most importantly, our radon reading went from 3.9 pCi/L to .3 pCi/L. We were able to use the standard fan rather than the larger, and slightly more expensive fan. The fan is very quiet - probably less than the .5 zones exhaust fan in our bathroom. Because the fan is installed outside the house, we cannot hear it from our bedroom directly above it."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

You can vent radon out of your house sometimes by simply opening a window, but it won’t remove the source, and will likely rise above recommended levels quickly. A professional will be needed to assess your home, and determine the best strategy for radon removal. Active radon sump pumps and soil depressurization systems are often used to forcefully vent the radon from your home.

Mitigation can take several days depending on home setup, equipment accessibility, and achieving effective diffusion system sealed efficiency.

If high radon levels are detected, steps include sealing entry points, installing a mitigation system, and retesting the air regularly to ensure reduced levels.

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.

While DIY testing is possible, abatement generally requires professional installation to ensure efficacy and meet safety standards.
