Radon Inspections
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas. When elevated, it becomes the second leading cause of lung cancer. It is a tasteless and odorless gas derived from the radioactive decay of radium.
What To Expect

- A continuous radon monitor (CRM) is placed in the lowest possible living area of the home.
- The testing period is a minimum of 48 hours.
- Results will indicate an EPA level that is either safe or elevated
- Homes where the lowest living area exceeds 2,000 square feet, a second monitor will be used.
- Mitigation and/or retesting will be recommended for elevated levels.
- PVC piping and an inline fan are installed to keep radon levels at a safe level, below 4.0 pCi/L.
