Why do I need radon remediation?

According to the EPA, radon gas is a major health risk for anyone exposed to it. In fact, it's the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States.

Radon is a natural gas that forms out of the uranium present in the soil and water across the United States. Because it's without odor or color, it's almost impossible to spot for homeowners, leading to extended exposure that can increase your health risks.

What level of radon requires mitigation?

The EPA recommends a mitigation system for radon levels higher than 2.0 pCi/L. Levels higher than 4.0 pCi/L post significant risk and need immediate remediation. Try to test your home's levels in winter when radon is most prevalent.
