What can be done?
Fortunately, there are effective ways to significantly reduce the amount of radon in your home, school, new construction complex, or commercial building. The first step is testing your home. The EPA and WHO recommends homes be fixed if the radon level is 4 pCi/L (picocuries per liter) or more. Because there is no known safe level of exposure to radon, the EPA also recommends that Americans consider fixing their home for radon levels between 2 pCi/L and 4 pCi/L.
At Axium, we utilize a third-party tester who calibrates testing devices annually and performs testing in accordance with ANSI / AARST standards. Our tests help ensure your peace of mind, understanding that we have an unbiased tester and are here to help your home be safe, not just make an extra buck. Our radon mitigation systems will reduce your radon levels below the ANSI/ AARST standards of practice.
