The US EPA estimates 21,000 American die of radon-induce lung cancer every year.  The American Association of Radon Scientists and Technologies (AARST) estimate 10 million homes and 38 million Americans are at risk from dangerous radon exposure.

Dangerous levels of indoor radon have been found in every state in houses with or without basements--old and new.

Radon testing has become routine in real estate transactions.  Most corporate relocation services require that the seller assume all responsibility for radon testing and remediation. High radon levels are easily and inexpensively fixed by Assure Home Inspection Services.  Home buyers who do not address this issue now may be forced to deal with it when they become home sellers.  Knowledgeable buyers are asking for a radon inspection and remediation clause in the sales contract. 

Assure Home Inspection Services and A-Plus Radon Detection are both trained and licensed Radalink Affiliates.  Our comprehensive radon measurement services produce reliable test results you and your family can depend on. 

During a minimum 48-hour sampling period, the radon concentration, room temperature, relative humidity, and barometric pressure are continuously measured and recorded at hourly intervals.

Upon ending the test, collected data is instantly transmitted to our analysis center where it is carefully reviewed.  The hourly readings and multiple tamper detection features enable our analysts to check for adherence to the requirement for closed-house conditions and routine weather. 

A Certified Radalink Radon Report is processed and e-mailed to you within the hour of the data transmission. 

Best of all, a Radalink Radon Test helps to ensure a healthy home and surprise-free sale in the future.

Radon problems are very easily and inexpensively fixed by Assure Home Inspection Service, a NRPP/State qualified contractor.  Although, the cost may vary depending on the size and design of the home, it generally ranges from $1200-$3000. 
Properly installed mitigation systems really work, permanently reducing concentrations to acceptable levels.  Since most designs prevent soil gases from entering the home, the occupants will likely see a reduction in humidity, mold, mildew, methane, pesticide gases and other air quality problems as well.  Very little maintenance is required and operating cost are generally less than $10 per month for fan electricity and minor loss of conditioned air. 

Since reduction systems lower the radon concentrations so effectively and eliminate peak fluctuations, living in a mitigated home reduces one's risk of radon related lung cancer to as low as reasonably achievable.
