FAQS ABOUT RADON TESTING
If you have questions about residential radon testing, you certainly are not the first to ask!
If you have future questions, please don’t hesitate to ask one of our techs.
There is technically no “safe” level of radon, but the EPA recommends taking action to reduce radon in your home if levels reach 4 pCi/L or higher. The average indoor radon level in the United States is approximately 1.3 pCi/L, while outdoor air typically measures around 0.4 pCi/L.
Radon originates from the natural breakdown of uranium and radium in the earth's crust. As uranium decays, it produces radium, which then decays into radon gas. This gas migrates upward through soil and rock, and because buildings create a pressure difference with the surrounding ground, radon is naturally drawn into structures through cracks, gaps, and openings in foundations.
Radon levels can rise again if the mitigation system is turned off, damaged, or fails. A malfunctioning fan is the most common reason for returning elevated levels, which is why visual inspections and annual testing are essential. If post-mitigation testing reveals elevated levels, the contractor should be called to inspect and adjust the system, potentially adding additional suction points or replacing the fan.
DIY radon test kits are widely available, inexpensive, and effective when used correctly. These kits are purchased at hardware stores or online, placed in the appropriate area of the home, and then mailed to a certified laboratory for analysis. However, for real estate transactions or if you want a guaranteed accurate reading, hiring a certified radon measurement professional is recommended.
