Radon mitigation systems require minimal maintenance, but periodic checks are important to ensure they are operating correctly. You should visually inspect the system regularly to confirm the fan is running, and most systems include a manometer or visual indicator that shows whether suction is being maintained. Annual radon testing is strongly recommended to verify that the system continues to keep levels below the EPA action level.

A radon test measures the concentration of radon gas in a home or building over a specific period of time. Tests can be conducted using passive devices like charcoal canisters or alpha track detectors, or with active electronic monitors. The goal is to determine whether radon levels exceed the EPA’s recommended action level of 4 pCi/L.

Yes, radon can enter a home through water, particularly from private wells that draw from groundwater sources in contact with uranium-bearing rock. When radon-containing water is used for showering, washing dishes, or running faucets, the gas is released into the indoor air.

However, the EPA estimates that waterborne radon contributes far less to overall indoor radon levels than soil gas entry, accounting for only about 1–2% of total indoor radon in most cases.

Radon mitigation refers to any process used to reduce elevated radon levels in a building to an acceptable concentration. The most common and effective method is sub-slab depressurization (SSD), which uses a pipe and fan system to draw radon from beneath the foundation and vent it safely outside. Mitigation systems are highly effective and can reduce indoor radon levels by up to 99% in many cases.

Short-term tests measure radon levels over a period of 2 to 90 days, with many charcoal canister tests running for just 2 to 7 days.

Long-term tests measure radon over 90 days or more, typically using alpha track detectors, and provide a more accurate representation of average annual exposure. Short-term tests are useful for quick screening or real estate transactions, while long-term tests give a better picture of ongoing risk.

Radon levels can vary enormously from one home to the next, even in the same neighborhood. While most homes fall below 4 pCi/L, some structures have been found with levels exceeding 100 pCi/L or more, particularly in areas with high uranium concentrations in the underlying geology. Factors such as foundation type, soil composition, and ventilation all influence how much radon accumulates inside a building.

If your test results show levels below 2 pCi/L, no immediate action is needed, though periodic retesting is still recommended. Levels between 2 and 4 pCi/L fall in a gray zone where the EPA suggests considering mitigation, especially for long-term occupants. Results at or above 4 pCi/L call for prompt action, including a follow-up test to confirm and then installation of a radon mitigation system.
