Elevated Radon Levels Are No Cause For Alarm!

IMPORTANT Please Read This:
If elevated radon levels are found in the home you intend to purchase, THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR ALARM!

Houses with elevated radon concentrations are EASILY and inexpensively fixed by an EPA or state qualified contractor. Although, the cost may vary depending on the size and design of the home, it seldom runs more than $800-$1500.

Radon mitigation really works, permanently reducing concentrations by up to 99%. And since most systems completely prevent soil air from entering the house, you may notice other air quality improvement as well.

Radon reduction measures in no way diminish the dollar value of the home and are accepted nationally as home improvement. Very little maintenance is required and system operating costs are generally less than $10 per month for the fan electricity and very minor loss of conditioned air.

Finally, since reduction systems lower radon concentrations so effectively and eliminate peak fluctuations, living in a mitigated home reduces one's risk of radon related lung cancer to as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA), - even lower than living in most houses testing below the EPA Action Level with no radon control system.

For more information, please refer to the EPA's Home Buyer's & Seller's Guide to Radon Reduction and Consumer's Guide to Radon Reduction. To receive your copies, call the EPA's Policy & Public Information Branch at 202-233-9400 or your state radon program director. Consumer Federation of America's toll free Radon Fix-It Line is for consumers whose results are 4pCi/l or higher. Call 800-644-6999 weekdays between noon and 8 PM EST for live operators.

Radon problems are very easily and inexpensively fixed by an EPA or state qualified contractor. Although, the cost may vary depending on the size and design of the home, it seldom runs more than $800-$1500.

Radon mitigation systems really work, permanently reducing concentrations by up to 99%. And since most designs completely prevent damp soil air from entering the house, one may notice other indoor air quality improvement as well. Very little maintenance is required and operating costs are generally less than $10 per month for fan electricity and minor loss of conditioned air.

Finally, since reduction systems lower the radon concentrations so effectively and eliminate peak fluctuations, living in a mitigated home reduces one's risk of radon related lung cancer to as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA), - even lower than living in most houses testing below the EPA Action Level (4pCi/l) with no control system.

Consumer Federation of America (CFA) in conjunction with the Environmental Protection Agency strongly recommends that ALL home buyers test for the presence of elevated radon gas concentrations. Radon, a Class A carcinogen, is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. Families may be at even higher risk if there is a smoker in the home. The EPA recommends remediation if radon levels are 4 picoCuries (pCi/l) or higher. Nearly 1 out of every 15 homes in the US is estimated to have elevated radon.
