At our home here in Zanesville, Ohio, our radon levels tested at over 13 pCi/L, more than 3x the EPA recommended action level of 4.0. Like many homes in Muskingum County, we had no idea it was that high.
After installing a professional radon mitigation system, our levels dropped to 0.6 pCi/L. That’s exactly what a properly designed radon mitigation system is supposed to do — reduce harmful radon gas and protect the air inside your home.
Radon is a naturally occurring gas you can’t see or smell, but long-term exposure is the second leading cause of lung cancer. And it’s not just a concern for people — high radon levels can affect pets too, including dogs and cats who spend even more time close to the ground where radon concentrations can be higher.
In our area, we regularly see elevated radon levels regardless of foundation type.
For homebuyers, testing is a key part of the inspection process.
For homeowners, mitigation is one of the best ways to protect your family — and your pets.
For sellers, it can help keep your transaction moving forward.
We’ve seen it in our own home — and across Zanesville and Muskingum County.
Protecting homes. Protecting families. Done right.
