Radon Mitigation Shorewood

Radon gas truly is the silent and invisible killer. In fact, it is estimated over 20,000 people die of lung cancer every year from the effects of radon gas. Any building in Shorewood can have high radon, including new, homes, old homes, commercial buildings, and schools. Radon levels can fluctuate from home to home, which means even next door neighbors can have drastically different readings. The only way to know what your home or commercial properties radon levels are currently at, is to do a radon test. Lifetime Radon has been assisting homeowners with their radon gas issues in Shorewood and all of its surrounding cities for over 21 years. Shorewood, even though it is situated right by the lake, is still at risk for high radon levels in the home.
A study done by the Wisconsin DHS from 1995-2016 showed that 21.4% of homes evaluated in Shorewood had radon levels at or above 4.0pCi/l. Radon testing is the first step of the process and we strongly encourage everyone living in Wisconsin to have their homes tested at least once for radon gas. The cost for radon testing in Shorewood is minimal and the process is fast and easy, there really isn’t a good reason to not have your home tested. If you have had your home tested, and the levels come back above the EPA’s mitigation action level of 4.0 picocuries per liter, then it is time to explore radon mitigation. Dangerous levels of radon gas are completely fixable and the cost for radon mitigation in Shorewood is no more than most other home remodeling projects.  If you are interested in receiving a quote for radon testing or mitigation for your home in Shorewood, please give us a call!

​Radon Testing Shorewood

The three biggest needs when choosing a radon test are price, timing, and accuracy. Most of the time homeowners call in wanting a radon test that covers at least two of those big needs. We offer three separate options for radon testing in Shorewood, each with their own benefits.

Price: If price is your biggest concern, and you don’t need this test done for a real estate deal the best option for you is probably the Air Chek 3-7 day charcoal testing kit. This kit can be had for as little as $25 and it includes the test, the postage and the lab fees. This is a do it yourself kit, but it is very simple to set up, and after you are finished with the testing period all you need to do is drop it in the mailbox, the postage is already on the kit.

Timing: For homeowners looking to have a radon test set up and picked up with a full report in as little as 48 hours, we offer a digital testing option. This test requires a certified technician to come out to your property to set up, and the test runs for 48 hours. After the test is complete, the technician will come back to your house to pick up the monitor and will send you over the results instantly in a full report. Digital tests are perfect for real estate transactions, and also homeowners who don’t want to set up their own test. If you’re a homeowner with lots of time to have a test running in your home and want a longer term average of your radon gas levels, we offer the Alpha Trak long term testing canister. This test runs for a minimum of ninety days and can go all the way up to a full year. Set up and pick up are included with this test, and you would receive results within a week after pick up.
​

Accuracy: The most accurate radon test is the digital test. We use Corentium Pro monitors that have to be calibrated yearly for ultimate precision. These monitors are only available to radon professionals and can be used for official readings in any real estate transaction. However, this is not to say that the charcoal testing kits and Alpha Track canisters are not accurate. The difference is very minimal in getting an average. The biggest difference is, the digital monitor can show hour by hour results, humidity levels, temperature, and movement.

For whatever reason you need to have your home tested for radon, whether it's for your health, or to sell your home, we got you covered!

DIY Radon Mitigation 

Many homeowners have questions regarding what they can do themselves to mitigate their home from radon gas. Most of the time the answer is not much. Unlike painting, and landscaping, radon mitigation is rarely a project that can be done easily on your own. Unless you have extensive experience working in plumbing or construction, the mitigation process is quite difficult if you are not properly trained. There are strict EPA regulations and building codes to adhere to, and not every system can be built the same. Every house is different, which means every system is different to fit the home and get the radon levels as low as possible. Most DIY systems we have come across do not pass inspection when the home goes up for sale and needs to be replaced by a certified mitigator, so if you are thinking of doing it yourself please keep that in mind. Additionally, the radon fans that stores like Home Depot and Lowes sell are not reliable and do not work as effectively as the fans that companies like us use. At Lifetime Radon, all of our technicians have years of experience and are certified to get the job done right. We work with every home to ensure that the system is not only working properly, but looks good as well on the home. If you have questions about DIY systems or would like advice about what do do about your homes current radon situation, give us a call!

Radon System Installation Shorewood

Garage Systems: The most preferable radon system by homeowners in Shorewood is the garage style radon mitigation system. This style of system isn’t possible in every home, but when it is, it is the best option for aesthetics, life of the system, and price. With this system, the piping and fan are run through the garage instead of the exterior. What you will see from the outside is simply a vent stack on the roof. To find out if this style of system can work with you home and to learn more about how it works, give us a call!

Exterior Systems: With every home, an exterior system is always a possibility. The piping starts in the basement either coming from the sump crock, or directly out of the drain tile and runs to the exterior on the back or sides of the home. Once on the outside, the fan is placed near the ground and piping must extend up 6-8 inches above the roof and 10 feet away from any windows. We understand that you care about the way your home looks, so we strive to find the best place for exterior systems and most of the time they go unnoticed. I’m willing to bet you have seen hundreds of radon systems on homes without even knowing. For a free estimate give us a call or fill out the contact form on this page!
