If you’re in the market to purchase a home, you’re undoubtedly looking for location, curb appeal, square footage, and any number of other features. But don’t forget to consider radon. While a #radon test may be required, there are some things you need to know to understand what that test may reveal.
#1. You can’t see or smell radon. A test is the only way to know how much is in the air.
#2. Tests aren’t that expensive and should be done periodically, especially if you install a dewatering system or the earth has been disturbed in any way.
#3. While 4.0 pCi/L (picocuries per liter) is the EPA recommended level it is completely possible and recommended to get that number as low as possible. Any radon exposure carries risks.
#4. Radon-induced lung cancer in non-smokers is a real condition. Smokers with radon exposure are at even greater risk.
#5. Mitigation is less expensive, faster, and less invasive than you might think but not all mitigation is the same. Choose a reputable company that has a good record, even if it costs you a bit more. Plus, it gives you safe air to breathe and THAT is invaluable.
#6. You should have a post-mitigation test. Make sure the mitigation is actually bringing down your radon levels.

After her grandmother passed, VanSanten and her family looked for answers and were shocked at what they found. “We searched to understand what the cause was, and we found it was from radon poisoning, which was found in [her] basement.” According to the American Lung Association, radon, “a colorless, tasteless, orderless gas that can build up to dangerous levels inside buildings and homes,” is the second leading cause of lung cancer (after smoking). bit.ly/testforradon
