Radon Mitigation Toledo FAQ

What is Radon?

Radon is a colorless, tasteless, and odorless gas that is invisible and radioactive, which makes it virtually undetectable unless you specifically test for it. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers and the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. 

Radon is a naturally gas that is formed when uranium in soil, water and rock breaks down and releases into the air or groundwater. 

How Does Radon Get Into Your Home?

Radon can penetrate homes from the ground via holes or cracks in the foundation. Radon is a country wide concern, and has been found in homes and buildings all over the United States.

How Can I Tell if There is Radon in my Home?

Radon is essentially undetectable without proper testing equipment. Because radon levels can fluctuate, it’s important to set up longterm radon testing, and at Erie Environmental, we always recommend going that route.

THE AGE OF YOUR HOME AND SOIL TYPE IS A FACTOR

Older buildings, and more specifically those built before the1970s will typically have used less than ideal building practices that are not well suited to protect you from radon permeation.

In addition to the make of your property, the type of soil your home was built on also plays a factor in whether you have excess radon. Generally speaking, soils which allows airflow, like gravel, are better off than wet sand or earth that prevents airflow, which also traps radon.

PLANNING AND LAYING PIPES: THE RADON MITIGATION SYSTEM

When it comes to radon testing Toledo, you need a company that you can rely on to get accurate test results, Erie Environmental only uses the highest quality radon equipment to ensure our tests are always accurate. To safely reroute the radon gas away from the interior of your building, our radon mitigation experts install a piping system to drive the gas away from common living areas and at least 10 feet away from any windows. These pipes are what’s known as the radon mitigation system because they reduce radon concentrations in the indoor air.
