Fixing a Radon Problem
Reducing radon levels can be easy and relatively inexpensive. The first step
is to hire a certified radon contractor (mitigator). Be sure that you or a
testing professional retest the radon level after a radon mitigation system is
installed.
Radon in Air:
For most homes, the mitigator will perform a diagnostic
evaluation, seal cracks, and install an active soil depressurization (ASD)
system. An ASD system changes air pressure beneath your home and then,
through the use of a radon fan, draws out the radon gas and safely vents it
above the roofline.
Radon in Well Water:
The two most commonly used types of waterborne
radon reduction systems are aeration and granular activated carbon (GAC).
The radon level is a primary factor in choosing between these systems.*
*
The EPA, for example, does not recommend GAC for radon levels above 5,000 pCi/L.
Protect yourself and your family. Test your home.
Every home should be tested, even if it was built radon-resistant.
And if you have well water, test your well. You cannot predict radon
levels based on state, local neighborhoods, or even the home next
door. The only way to know whether your home has elevated radon
is to test it.
Testing is simple and inexpensive.
To quickly find out if you have a radon problem, use an AccuStar
Labs Radon Test Kit or contact a radon testing professional.
