How to Fix a Radon Problem

The Surgeon General, U.S EPA, and the American Lung Association recommend everyone test their home for radon gas. If your levels are 4 pico Curies per liter (pCi/L) or higher then have this problem repaired immediately. The term used for removing radon in a home is "Mitigation"". Radon levels less than 4 pCi/L still are a serious risk, as the average indoor reading is 1.3 pCi/L. If you smoke your risk of lung cancer is especially high.

Many states require radon mitigation professionals to be licensed, certified, or registered. Contact Your EPA Regional Office to find a qualified radon mitigation contractor to fix your home.
