🏡☢️ Purchasing a Home With a Radon Mitigation System? Don’t Assume It’s Working Properly.

An existing radon mitigation system is a good sign that radon has been addressed, but the presence of a system alone doesn’t tell you its current condition or whether all visible components are functioning as intended.

Before purchasing the home, consider having the mitigation system professionally inspected. An evaluation can look at accessible components such as the radon fan, vent piping, connections, manometer, discharge location, labeling, and overall system condition. 🔍

Fans can eventually fail. Pipes or connections can be altered or damaged. Home renovations can affect an existing installation. That’s why evaluating the system you’re inheriting can be an important part of your due diligence.

🧪 And don’t forget the radon test. A system inspection evaluates the equipment, while radon testing tells you the actual radon concentration inside the home. They provide two different pieces of information.

If you’re buying a home with an existing mitigation system, don’t just assume it’s doing its job. Know what you’re buying and know your radon level.

🏡 Radon Doesn’t Stop at the Property Line.

Every home has its own story and its own radon level. Two houses can sit on the same street, look nearly identical, and still have very different test results. That’s because radon levels are influenced by factors beneath and within each individual home.

☢️ Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter through foundations, cracks, gaps, crawl spaces, and other openings. You can’t see it, smell it, or taste it, so the only way to know what’s happening in your home is to test.
🧪 Test first. Know your level.

💨 If levels are elevated, mitigation can help reduce them.
Your home should be a place where your family feels comfortable. Knowing your radon level is one more way to make informed decisions about the air you breathe.

💬 Have you ever had your home tested for radon?

🍂🏡 Sweater Weather Is Here… But What About the Air Inside Your Home?

Fall means cozy blankets, pumpkin spice, and spending more time indoors. ☕🐾 But there's one thing you can't see, smell, or taste that deserves your attention: RADON. ☢️

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can accumulate inside homes. Long-term exposure increases your risk of lung cancer.

Here's your fall home safety reminder:

🧪 TEST: Know your home's radon level.

📊 UNDERSTAND: The EPA recommends taking action at 4.0 pCi/L or higher and considering action between 2.0 and 4.0 pCi/L.

💨 MITIGATE: If elevated levels are found, a professionally installed mitigation system can significantly reduce radon concentrations.

❤️ PROTECT: Make your home a healthier place for the people you love.

☢️🏡 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT RADON THAT MIGHT SURPRISE YOU!

Radon is serious business BUT learning about it doesn’t have to be boring! How many of these did you already know? 👀

1️⃣ Radon comes from the ground. It forms naturally as uranium in soil and rock breaks down.

2️⃣ You can’t use your senses to detect it. Radon has no color, smell, or taste...which is why testing matters. 🧪

3️⃣ Your neighbor’s radon level doesn’t predict yours. Two homes right next door to each other can have very different readings! 🏠🏠

4️⃣ New homes aren’t automatically protected. Elevated radon can occur in homes of different ages, sizes, and foundation types.

5️⃣ Elevated radon can be addressed. 💨 If testing finds a problem, a professionally designed mitigation system can significantly reduce indoor radon levels.

⭐ BONUS FACT: The EPA recommends taking action when a home's radon level is 4.0 pCi/L or higher.

🏡 IT LOOKS SAFE. BUT IS IT RADON-FREE? ☢️

Fresh paint. New flooring. Updated kitchen. Clean crawlspace. Beautiful neighborhood.

None of those things can tell you what the radon level is inside a home.

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter a home from the soil beneath it. It’s colorless, odorless, and tasteless, which means there’s no walkthrough, visual inspection, or smell test that can determine whether elevated levels are present.

👉 Testing is the only way to know.

And here’s something buyers and agents should remember: radon isn’t just an “old house” problem. Elevated levels can be found in new construction, older homes, homes with basements, crawlspaces, or slab foundations.

According to the EPA, radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, and the agency recommends taking action when a home tests at 4.0 pCi/L or higher.

🔍 For our agent partners, adding radon testing during the inspection period can give your buyers important information while they’re still within their due diligence timeline.

A beautiful home can pass the eye test. 👀
Radon requires an actual test. ☢️

Radon doesn’t need an open door to get inside your home.

This naturally occurring radioactive gas comes from the soil beneath and around your home and it can enter through places you may never notice:

🔸 Cracks in concrete slabs
🔸 Foundation walls and joints
🔸 Gaps around plumbing and utility lines
🔸 Sump pits and floor drains
🔸 Crawl spaces
🔸 Other openings where the home meets the ground

Once inside, radon can accumulate to elevated levels. And because it’s colorless, odorless, and tasteless, you won’t know how much is present without testing. 🧪

The good news? If testing finds elevated radon, professional mitigation can reduce the concentration by drawing radon from beneath the home and safely venting it outdoors. 💨

☢️ RADON QUIZ: How much do you know about the air inside your home? 🏡

TRUE or FALSE: If your neighbor’s home has a low radon level, yours probably does too.

👇 Drop your answer in the comments before reading on!

The answer is FALSE. Radon levels can vary significantly from one home to the nexteven homes right beside each other. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter through openings in a home’s foundation, and you can’t see, smell, or taste it.

⚠️ Long-term radon exposure increases the risk of lung cancer.
🧪 The only way to know your home’s radon level is to test.
💨 If elevated levels are found, a professionally designed mitigation system can help reduce them.

☢️ What You Don’t Know About Radon Matters.

Radon levels can vary from home to home, regardless of age, size, or foundation type. Your neighbor’s low result doesn’t mean yours will be the same. 🏡

The solution? Know your number. 🧪 Testing tells you what’s happening inside YOUR home, and if levels are elevated, mitigation can help reduce them.

☢️🏡 RADON: What Every Homeowner Should Know

Radon isn’t something you can see, smell, or taste but that doesn’t mean it isn’t there. This naturally occurring radioactive gas comes from the breakdown of uranium in soil and rock and can enter a home through cracks, gaps, foundations, crawl spaces, and other openings.

Here are some important facts:

🧪 Testing is the only way to know your radon level. Your neighbor’s results cannot tell you what’s happening inside your home.

🫁 Long-term radon exposure is a serious health concern. According to the EPA, radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer overall and the leading cause among people who do not smoke.

📊 Know your number. Radon is measured in picocuries per liter (pCi/L). The EPA recommends taking action to reduce radon at 4.0 pCi/L or higher and recommends considering action between 2.0 and 4.0 pCi/L.

🏠 Any home can have elevated radon. New or old, basement or crawl space, slab foundation or multi-story construction style alone cannot tell you whether a home has a radon problem.

💨 Elevated radon can be reduced. If testing identifies a problem, a properly designed mitigation system can draw radon from beneath the home and safely vent it outdoors.

🔄 Testing isn’t necessarily one-and-done. Radon levels can change over time, so periodic retesting and testing after major renovations or changes to the home is a smart precaution.

At Peach State Environmental, we handle both sides of the equation: professional radon testing to find out what’s happening and radon mitigation when elevated levels require action.

Your home may look healthy. Your air may smell clean. But when it comes to radon, don’t guess..TEST! 🧪🍑
