Top Ways to Reduce Radon Levels in Your Home

4/12/2023

0 Comments

 
​     Radon is a radioactive gas that is naturally present in the environment. It is a leading cause of lung cancer and can seep into your home through cracks in the foundation or walls. 
Picture
Here are some top ways to reduce radon levels in your home:
  • Test Your Home for Radon
​The first step in reducing radon levels is to test your home. You can purchase a do-it-yourself radon test kit or hire a professional to conduct a test.
Picture
  • Seal Cracks and Gaps
​Sealing cracks and gaps in your home's foundation and walls can prevent radon from entering your home.
  • Increase Ventilation
​Increasing ventilation in your home can help reduce radon levels. You can open windows, install fans, or use a heat recovery ventilator to bring in fresh air.
Picture
  • Install a Radon Mitigation System
​A radon mitigation system is a specialized system that is designed to reduce radon levels in your home. It involves installing a fan and a vent pipe to draw radon out of your home and vent it outside.
  • Maintain Your HVAC System:
​Maintaining your HVAC system can help reduce radon levels. Make sure to change your air filters regularly and have your system inspected by a professional.

    ​Reducing radon levels in your home is important for the health and safety of you and your family. By taking these steps, you can help ensure that your home is a safe and healthy environment.
