Radon Testing

Radon Testing

Radon is colorless, odorless, and extremely carcinogenic (cancer-causing). It can affect homes anywhere in the US, and the only way to check for elevated levels of radon in your home is with testing. A professional radon monitor is set at the lowest level of the home. The radon levels are sampled for 48 hours with an average generated at the conclusion of the test. Professional mitigation is recommended if the level is at or above 4.0 pCi/l. Radon gas is the 2nd leading cause of cancer in the US. Testing the radon level is an important part of the inspection process.
