Radon Test and Mitigation

Because the symptoms from radon can be so problematic, detecting radon gas becomes even more imperative. Professional radon testing by Insight Environmental places radon test equipment in your home or office to check the radon levels. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), any level of 4 pCi L or higher could be dangerous. If the radon test equipment finds these radon levels in your home or office, you may need a radon mitigation system or reduction system that can cut up to 99% of the radon in your home. Since radon levels can fluctuate, it is a good idea to assess both short term and long term radon test results. Short term radon tests can measure between 2-90 days and long term tests can assess more than 90 days. The EPA recommends long term test results of 4 pCi L or higher be corrected. Professional radon testing and detecting radon gas become even more important if there is the possibility of mitigating it to such an extent.
