Protect Your Family, Get A Residential Radon Test

Radon Testing And your Health

Radon gas can be found in any home, regardless of location, and it  can pose a serious health risk for you and your family. Exposure to high  levels of radon can cause lung cancer, the second leading cause after  smoking in the U.S., and is responsible for over 20,000 deaths every  year. That's why it's essential to complete a test for radon gas in your Kentucky home.

 According to state and national data, the indoor radon level average in  the United States is 1.3 pC/l. In Kentucky, the average level is more  than 4 pC/l and in Lexington, the average level is much higher; about 8  pC/l in Fayette County. The EPA recommends maintaining a level lower  than 4 pC/l. 

 There is a synergistic effect between  radon exposure and smoking—people  exposed to both radon and tobacco smoke are  10 times more likely to  develop lung cancer. Kentucky leads the nation in the  incidence of new  lung cancer cases and lung cancer mortality. 

 

Radon is odorless, tasteless, and invisible, so it may be present in  your home without your knowledge. Although you may not be able to detect  radon with any of your human senses, the radon professionals at Elite Radon Solutions can not only inspect your home's levels but  also provide solutions for maintaining a healthy radon level in your  Kentucky home.


What are the Benefits of Radon Testing Lexington KY ?

 Many people throughout Kentucky have never had their homes tested for Radon Gas. More than likely, it is because they have never heard of radon or the benefits of having radon testing performed. 

 The biggest benefit of a radon test is peace of mind. Radon  has no smell, taste, or color, and beyond contributing to the  development of lung cancer, radon exposure has no symptoms that can be  identified by a doctor. That means a radon test is the only way to make  sure your home has a safe level of radon.
Radon  tests can also save you money if you’re trying to sell your home,  because you can provide information about radon levels to potential  buyers, and ensure you meet local codes related to radon compliance. The  EPA also recommends that you test for radon when buying a home. That  way, if high levels of radon are detected, you can request that the home  seller install mitigation features, or you can back out of the purchase  by utilizing your home inspection contingency.

Why should I test my home for radon? 

Radon is widely believed to be the second leading cause of lung cancer. Therefore, the EPA and the Surgeon General recommend testing for radon in all homes below the third floor. Radon has been found in homes all over the United States. Any home can have a radon problem. On average, one out of every fifteen U.S. homes have a problem. The only way to know whether or not your home has a radon problem is to test for it. 

EPA recommends that you hire a qualified professional to test for radon when you are buying or selling a home. Some states require radon measurement testers to follow a specific testing protocol. If you hire a contractor to test your residence, protect yourself by hiring a qualified individual or company. Keep in mind that radon is a radioactive gas; you cannot smell it and it’s invisible like the air we breathe. It can kill, but it won’t do it all at once. It kills over time. 

Radon Testing is Critical, Test your home and protect your family.


What Is A Radon Test, And How Does It Work? 

The test typically takes place over a 2-day period, during which canisters or a machine are placed in the lowest level of your home. After two days, the average radon level is taken. It’s important not to attempt to open windows or doors to influence the test. You should live in your home as usual to get the most accurate test possible. If your home tests above 4.0 pCi/L, you should definitely seek a professional to fix the issues. If your home tests between 2.0 pCi/L and 4.0 pCi/L, you may still want to consider a radon mitigating system in your home. 


So should I get a radon test when buying or selling my home?

Unless the home has already been tested very recently and the test  result was below 2.0 pCi/L, you should get a radon test. The tests  themselves are not very expensive, typically between $50-150 depending  on the type. Even if you have had a test within the last six months that  showed acceptable radon levels, these levels can vary seasonally. When  selling or buying a home, it’s best to have a current radon test. 

Don’t leave your family’s health to chance. The only way to know for  sure if your home has dangerous levels of radon gas is to perform radon  testing. Check this Radon guide video for new home buyers.
