"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I first worked with Cristian Papa of Webb Inspection Services during a full home inspection last year and was so impressed with his professionalism and attention to detail that I hired him again to evaluate recent roofing work at my property. Cristian conducted a thorough inspection, carefully documented his findings with photographs, and provided a detailed, well-organized report that was easy to understand. His attention to detail and ability to identify areas requiring further review gave me valuable information to make informed decisions regarding my property. Throughout both inspections, Cristian was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and willing to answer questions. It is clear that he takes pride in his work and provides honest, independent evaluations. I highly recommend Cristian Papa and Webb Inspection Services to anyone looking for a thorough and trustworthy home inspector."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

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

Keeping radon from getting into your home is much better than having to get rid of it once it's already indoors. While there may not be a way to fully prevent radon from getting into your home, there are things you can do to reduce the gas's ability to enter. 

Sealing foundation cracks and openings can help keep the gas from seeping inside. Improving air flow, such as by opening windows, can also be helpful. If you're building your home from scratch, talk to your contractor about using radon-resistant construction to keep the gas out.

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.

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 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.
