Why Radon Matters.
Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers and the second leading cause of lung cancer for smokers. Radon is difficult to detect as it is odorless, colorless, and tasteless. The only accurate way to detect Radon is to have a certified test conducted in you home, office, or business.
Should you Test for Radon?
According to the EPA, everyone should test for Radon. At Best Electric Inc., we offer testing using state or the art Sun Nuclear continuous monitors. Our monitors are calibrated yearly by a independent lab to ensure accuracy.
Should you mitigate?
The EPA recommends that everyone should mitigate if the results of the test are 4.0pCi/l or more. So what does 4.0pCi/l mean. Well lets put it in everyday terms. According to Radon Awareness "If you live in a home for 1 year that has exactly 4.0 pCi/L then your radiation exposure is the same as 200 chest x-rays per year."
If you decide to test it's a very simple procedure. Simply call us and schedule an appointment. We will come to your home and share with you the different testing methods and begin the testing procedure. Then in as little as 48 hours we will provide you with the certified testing results.
If you decide to mitigate we will credit your pre mitigation testing fee to the cost of the mitigation and we will also come back and do a FREE a post mitigation test. In most cases we can mitigate most homes in one business day. We will arrive on time and we will leave your home or business as clean as we found it. We will then return in 48 hours to perform a post mitigation test. If that test shows that the results are 4.0pCi/L or higher then we will fix the problem with no additional charge. In addition to that you can then have a long term 12 month test preformed and if there is a problem then we will come back and fix it again at no additional cost to you. For more information please contact us Today.
Other Benefits
Other than removing radon, a radon reduction system offers several other key benefits. It removes other earth and soil gases, and it can reduce moisture under your slab or crawl space. The active dampness control that it offers can remove as much as 1200 gallons of water a year. This in return can reduce the need for dehumidification and help lower your heating and cooling cost. This also reduces the chances for harmful molds and mildew to develop with in your home.
Radon is by far the greatest single source of radiation exposure to the general public
