 Radon Gas Testing
 
Radon Gas Is......
Radon is a radioactive gas that has been found in homes, condo, schools, and buildings around the world. Environmental Radon Gas comes from the natural breakdown of uranium in soil and rock and moves up into the indoor air that people breathe. Radon gas is the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers. Radon mitigation systems is a proven method to reduce radon levels in house and buildings.The Surgeon General of the United States has warned that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States today. Call Innovative Home Inspector to talk to a certified home inspection to find more information about Radon and testing.
 
Testing For Radon Gas.....
Radon testing is an inexpensive test to ensure that the indoor air quality of your home is safe for you and your family. Radon testing is a 48 hour short term test that complies with U.S.E.P.A. We place passive sample canisters in the home. The samples are collected and sent to a Certified Lab for analysis. We provide results and Radon mitigation recommendations if required within 24 hours after the Lab completes the analysis.
 
What is an Acceptable Radon Gas Level?
TRadon in air is ubiquitous. Radon is found in outdoor air and in the indoor air of buildings of all kinds.EPA recommends homes be fixed if the radon level is 4 pCi/L (pico Curies per Liter) or more.
Because there is no known safe level of exposure to radon, EPA also recommends that Americans consider fixing their home for radon levels between 2 pCi/L and 4 pCi/L.
The average radon concentration in the indoor air of America’s homes is about 1.3 pCi/L. It is upon this level that EPA based its estimate of 20,000 radon-related lung cancers a year upon. It is for this simple reason that EPA recommends that Americans consider fixing their homes when the radon level is between 2 pCi/L and 4 pCi/L. The average concentration of radon in outdoor air is .4 pCi/L or 1/10th of EPA’s 4 pCi/L action level.
