"We hired PureTech to advise us on a real estate inspection that included a radon test. That test came back over the safety threshold. After meeting with Zach C, he advised us to make some repairs in the basement and to schedule a retest. We did and the results speak for themselves; the levels came back well into the safe zone. I couldn't be more pleased with the recommendations made by PureTech and Zach C specifically. Saved us a bundle in what could have been a nightmare, and now the sale of our home can proceed. Thank you PureTech!"

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts
While DIY testing is possible, abatement generally requires professional installation to ensure efficacy and meet safety standards.
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 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).
If high radon levels are detected, steps include sealing entry points, installing a mitigation system, and retesting the air regularly to ensure reduced levels.
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.
