With the colder winter months approaching, home owners are closing up their homes and turning up the heat. For many homeowners that includes forced air furnaces, fire places, and wood stoves. What many homeowners may not know, these conditions can significantly increase the radon levels in the home. Indoor air quality tops the list of health safety concerns for families in their homes. It is true, radon levels are most often highest in basements or lowest level of the home. However, depending on those levels, air quality can reach unsafe levels on every floor in the home.
Radon is a colorless, odorless radioactive gas. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Viking Inspections offers short-term radon tests for a duration of 48 hrs. We utilize E-PERM (electrets ion chamber) systems and deploy two tests simultaneously for the most accurate results.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Surgeon General strongly recommend further action be taken when a home’s radon test results are 4.0 pCi/L or greater. The national average indoor radon level is 1.3 pCi/L. The higher the home’s radon level, the greater the health risk to you and your family. Reducing radon levels can often be done easily and effectively. Please refer to the EPA website at www.epa.gov/radon for more information.
