Radon Mitigation

Our beautiful city may have a low crime rate but that doesn’t mean everywhere is safe. In fact, your own home could be the most dangerous place you spend time if radon levels are excessive. Radon is responsible for 20,000 cases of lung cancer each year in the U.S. alone, and nearly ¼ of them result in death.

But you don’t have to sit back and wait for the worst to happen. There are precautions you can take today to ensure you and your family members don’t become part of those statistics.
​
Don’t let radon gas make your home become a place that makes you and your family sick. Call us immediately to begin your thorough radon inspection. Colorado Springs Radon Mitigation is your source for radon removal in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Colorado Springs Radon Mitigation tests homes and businesses for radon gas, and if a problem is found, we get to work at the customer’s earliest convenience. While radon remediation is not required at any level, we definitely recommend it if radon levels above 4.0 pCi/L are found. Your test results will be discussed with you in detail so that you can decide the best course of action.

There are no safe radon levels for your home or office. However, radon is a naturally occurring substance, so it is present in trace amounts in the outside air, making it impossible to avoid completely. Our best hope is to remediate it in your home to levels that are comparable to average outdoor levels.

Statistically, Colorado homes are more likely to have radon than homes in any other state. Knowing this simply means that you need to be vigilant about testing and remediation if you live in Colorado Springs.

There are a few things you can do to keep radon levels low without a mitigation system, including installing ceiling fans are highly effective with positive ion generators. To maximize your radon gas mitigation system, we can give you tips like this at any point during your radon services.

Radon Mitigation

​Some homeowners want us to handle everything, from testing through remediation. Others only need a professionally installed system in place as quickly as possible. Many of them have done their own at-home testing and established the presence of radon, so they need us to help them get rid of it. In any case, radon remediation is the reason most customers call us.
Radon mitigation systems consist of two main parts:

• Pipes, which carry excess radon out of your basement or crawl space
• A radon fan, located in the lowest level of your home, which pulls radon from the ground and pushes it through the pipes

Radon mitigation may be required if you are buying or selling a home, but not by local or state standards. Currently, there are no legal obligations for radon inspections and remediation at any point.
During a home purchase, it’s common for the seller to pay for mitigation if a test is agreed upon initially, but there are cases where the buyer pays.
If the buyer specifically requested the radon test, or if the radon inspection was requested after a selling price has been negotiated, these would both be times when the buyer would be responsible for the cost of the inspection and any subsequent remediation.
If you have more questions and concerns, Colorado Springs Radon Mitigation pros will be more than happy to guide you through the process, whether you’re buying, selling, or planning to live in your current home for years to come.

Radon Mitigation System

​Speaking of buying or selling homes, rest assured that a radon system won’t affect the selling price of your home if you do decide to sell it one day. Some homeowners are hesitant to proceed with radon mitigation system installation because they think it is a negative mark against their home.

On the contrary, a potential buyer (and you, for as long as you live in the home) should view a radon mitigation system as an added layer of protection. These systems work well in all weather conditions and climates, which is good because your home’s radon levels can vary due to weather. If you have a system in place, you’ll always know that your radon levels are in check.
​
Colorado Springs Radon Mitigation can give you the confidence you need to act accordingly based on our accurate test results. Whether one-time remediation services are needed, or a home radon remediation system needs to be installed, we can get the job done in just a day in most cases.

Radon Mitigation Cost

​One of the first things that customers want to know once we’ve established that their home has high radon levels is how much it will cost to get rid of it. That answer depends on quite a few factors. Your radon mitigation system cost could be different from your neighbors if your home is a different square footage or has a different floor plan, so it really isn’t reliable to base your estimate off someone else’s home.
An average cost for a radon mitigation system is $1200, but your home’s system could cost more or less, dependent upon the factors we mentioned. Our pros will do their best to give you an estimate that is as accurate as possible so you can begin budgeting for installation once you have our recommendations.
