Find a Professional Radon Contractor in Ohio

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that is both tasteless and odorless, making it hard to detect without the proper equipment. Radon gas is a product of uranium that often enters the basements of homes and buildings due to poor ventilation.

When people come in contact with radon for an extended period of time, they’ll notice several harmful effects. Since radon is odorless, the damage is caused in the lungs which means individuals suffer from intense coughing, difficulty breather and lung infections.

The Importance of Radon Mitigation

Through radon mitigation, the risks can be severely reduced. Radon mitigation will significantly decrease the risks of developing lung cancer as well as reduce infiltration of moist soil air with radon, which can also reduce the humidity level of the space.

Utilizing several distinct processes, each radon mitigation contractor has been thoroughly trained to reduce radon levels in your home or building. Upon a visual inspection, the contractor will design the best system to eradicate the gas.

Radon Damage in Ohio

The Ohio Department of Health estimates that almost one in two Ohio homes have radon levels that may pose a large risk to health over many years of exposure. Of over 300,000 radon tests done in the state, about 48% showed levels at or above 4pCi/L.

The soils of Ohio contain concentrations of uranium and radium, which supply a constant source of radon. It is estimated that 62.5% of schools in Ohio have a potential for at least one room in excess of the U.S. EPA action level (4pCi/L) compared to 19.3% nationwide. While it might not be visible to the human eye, radon can be lethal, resulting in extensive damage done to the body.
