"Jeff and his folks were a pleasure to work with. His communication regarding any delays or other issues is excellent. He is also great at answering followup questions that I have about how the system is running. It took our radon readings down to nearly zero from an alarmingly high value. We were hovering below 4 pCi for many years, but then our crawlspace was sealed and insulated and it soared in the living space. (The crawlspace itself was 20 pCi). Highly recommend."

"Found on Home Advisor, responded quickly after I reached out. Hired to install radon mitigation. Without asking....He took his shoes off once he saw we did. Cut could not have been any cleaner thru the laundry room tile and 4-6" of concrete subfloor, he didn't even break the tile! Took about 5-6 hrs to install. Post radon test came in at 0.3. Previously between 4-10. Worth every penny of the investment. You can't put a price on your health. Now we can breathe easy! Thank you Tyler Lucas!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Many radon fans carry a five-year manufacturer's warranty. That said, your radon fan should last between five and ten years. Regular inspections will ensure the fan is operating properly. Unusual or exceptional noise coming from the fan or indications on your manometer or system monitor can immediately tell you that something is amiss.

Your radon fan needs to operate 24/7 to be effective. The only time the fan isn't operating is during its replacement. Radon levels in the home can increase within hours if the fan stops working or something obstructs the stack vent. Fortunately, radon systems require no downtime maintenance between fan changes.

Yes, many systems include warranties for performance. Confirm terms with your installer.

The cost for a radon mitigation system typically ranges from $800 to $1,500, with an average around $1,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the size of your home, the severity of the radon issue, and the type of system required. Your home's foundation type also significantly impacts the cost. For example, sealing and ventilating an unfinished basement might cost around $4,600, while encapsulating a crawl space without a foundation slab can range from $1,500 to $15,000.

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.
