I had little to no idea about what the radon levels in our house would be. At some point, if we were interested in selling our home, it would be important for me to know. So, I checked online and I found Ineta with NorthWest Radon Testing. She was local and her reviews were good, so I set up a session for the following morning. Since I have a split level, she recommended two testing devices. Ineta arrived promptly the next day, was very congenial, and went to work setting up the devices. She explained the process and answered my many questions - obviously very knowledgable. The testing takes two days and when she came back, Ineta provided me with the results on the spot, and also a PDF report for my files. Thankfully, my results were in the safe range, but if they weren't, she would have been able to supply me with recommended mitigation companies. The whole process was easy and unobtrusive. Ineta was a pleasure to work with. I would heartily recommend NorthWest Radon Testing to anyone who needs to know the radon conditions of their home.

People can be exposed to radon primarily from breathing radon in air that comes through cracks and gaps in buildings and homes, with highest concentrations in basements and/or first floors. Any home may have a radon problem. Radon testing Illinois is necessary.

This means new and old homes, well-sealed and drafty homes, and homes with or without basements. Radon testing is recommended by the Environmental Protection Agency, the Surgeon General, the American Lung Association, and the Illinois Department of Health.

Frequently asked questions

Radon is a naturally occurring, odorless and tasteless gas that is produced from the decay of uranium in soil, rock, and water. It can seep into homes and buildings through cracks and other openings in the foundation, creating a potentially hazardous indoor air quality issue.

Radon is a known carcinogen and is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Testing your home or building is the only way to determine if elevated levels of radon are present and if remediation is necessary.

The EPA recommends that homes and buildings with radon levels at or above 4.0 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) should be remediated to reduce the risk of lung cancer.

Radon testing is conducted using specialized radon testing devices that measure the levels of radon in the air. These devices can be placed in the home or building for a certain period of time to obtain an accurate reading.

A radon test typically takes between 48 and 96 hours to obtain a reliable reading.

Yes, you can purchase a do-it-yourself radon testing kit from a hardware store or online retailer. However, it is recommended that you have a professional radon testing company perform the test to ensure accurate results and proper testing protocol.

If your test results are elevated, it is recommended that you take steps to remediate the radon problem. This can involve sealing cracks in the foundation, installing a radon mitigation system, or taking other remediation measures.

The EPA recommends testing your home or building for radon every two years. Additionally, it is a good idea to test after major renovations or after moving into a new home.
