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

Mitigation reduces radon levels, protecting your health and complying with safety standards.

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.

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

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, 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.
