Monitoring Rising Radon Levels with Confidence

Challenge

The Challenge

A homeowner contacted us after noticing changes in their radon levels. Back in the fall of 1991, their home tested at 2.1 pCi/L, a level considered acceptable at the time. However, a recent test revealed levels had increased to 3.4 pCi/L, still below the EPA action level of 4.0, but trending upward. Concerned about the rise, the homeowner wanted to understand their options before conditions worsened.

Solution

The Solution

We responded promptly by visiting the property and preparing a detailed estimate for a mitigation system. The proposal outlined costs, scope of work, and system design tailored to the home’s needs. This gave the homeowner the clarity and knowledge they needed to make an informed decision.

The Outcome

For now, the homeowner chose to continue monitoring their radon levels while setting aside resources for a future system if needed. With the estimate in hand, they feel prepared to act quickly if levels increase further.

At Carolina Radon, we believe that empowering homeowners with clear information is just as important as installing systems. By providing transparent guidance and reliable options, we ensure our clients can move forward with confidence — today and tomorrow.
