Radon Testing

All homes should be tested for radon periodically for safety’s sake. There is no definitive timeline for radon testing, but we at Fort Collins Radon Mitigation recommend that you have professional radon testing done annually.
Another option is to have a radon detector installed in your home. These devices … They operate by…
Currently, there are no national or state requirements for radon testing, but local laws may require it, especially in areas that are known to have high radon content in the soil. Your local radon specialist should be able to tell you if your home is in one of these zones.
It’s not uncommon for radon inspection to be done when buying or selling a home. If the buyer requests the testing, then he or she is responsible for the cost of testing.

Radon Test Kit

To avoid professional radon testing cost, some homeowners purchase radon test kits from home improvement stores. We’re often asked if these tests are worth the money, if they are accurate, and if their readings can be used in legal matters, such as buying or selling a home.
Here are our answers to a few of those frequently asked questions:
  • Yes, these tests can save you some money versus professional testing. In and of themselves, they are good for the purpose they serve, if for nothing more than tipping you off that you need to investigate further.
 
  • Yes, home testing kits are fairly reliable. However, the margin of error lies in the homeowner’s inexperience working with these tests, not in the tests themselves.
 
  • No, more than likely a do-it-yourself radon test cannot be used as the evidence you need for legal proceedings. A professional will need to give you a certified report to make it official.
We can offer guidance for anyone shopping for radon testing kit so that you can get a reliable reading.

Radon Detector

A good solution for many of our customers is to install a radon gas detector in their home, so they have no need of professional testing or an at-home test. At a glance, you will be able to tell if the radon gas levels in your home are staying consistent. By educating yourself about the different levels of radon gas, you’ll be the first to know if there’s a problem and be about to get it taken care of immediately.
Most radon detectors are electric, but there are also some battery powered ones on the market. These devices feature a digital screen that tells homeowners what the radon levels are in their home at any given time. Just like a smoke detector, a radon detector just may save your life!
A radon detector is a safety measure that many Fort Collins homeowners are having installed in new and old homes alike. Acceptable radon levels really do not exist; however, if you notice an upward trend in daily or weekly readings, then you can call a pro and let them guide your mitigation process.

Radon Levels

Fort Collins Radon Mitigation can explain your radon gas levels in terms you understand, as well as providing trustworthy advice based on your test results. There are 3 radon gas levels that you need to have a general understanding of:
Low levels – By no means are these safe radon levels, but they are comparable with the concentration of radon in the outside air, which can’t be controlled or avoided. If the radon levels in your home are 0.4 pCi/L or below, this is considered low, although you can still proceed with radon mitigation system installation based on these levels.
Action recommended levels – Any radon test result that falls between 2.0 and 4.0 pCi/L is considered serious enough for your radon pro to recommend action in the form of a radon mitigation system. However, you are not required by law to install a radon fan at any level.
Action levels – If the radon gas level in your home is found to be higher than 4.0 pCi/L, this puts you and anyone who spends time in your home at risk of developing many types of cancer, lung cancer being at the top of the list.
A professional radon pro can go over the numbers with you and help you sort through all the information that is available about radon gas. Some of what you’ll read online is true, but much of it is not. The radon elimination company that you choose should be honest with you about whether or not you actually need remediation services.


In a time where you need answers you can trust, there’s no one better than Fort Collins Radon Mitigation for your home or business. We have proudly service Fort Collins Colorado with exceptional service, and we’ve given homeowners just like you the peace of mind that they desperately desired.
