Radon Testing
EPA highly recommends that you hire a professional to conduct the radon test, and you can Call Us Today for your Radon Testing in Raleigh NC, and surrounding areas.
Any radon levels over the EPA-established 4.0 pCi/L are recommended to take corrective measures, i.e., installing radon mitigation which reduces the radon gas concentrations in the home. Just because the house has elevated radon levels doesn’t mean it’s a bad home; it just means the radon needs to be managed and reduced to acceptable levels with mitigation.
