Kingsville Radon Testing

What to Know About Radon Gas?

Radon is a Class A cause of cancer. Radon gas is scientifically proven to instigate lung cancer in people.

A large number of homes in the Kingsville area have a radon level above the DNS action limit.

Radon naturally occurs in the topsoil, not the structure. No house, new or old, is fully shielded from radon.

Every property meshes with the ground beneath it uniquely. That is why properties adjacent to each other may have radically different radon levels.

Radon gas concentration will change daily and seasonally inside of a safe range. A short-term radon sample measures a single day or week and is an accurate bellwether of if the land has a radon accumulation.

Radon has a lifespan of about half a week. Radon concentration will not be any higher if the home is enclosed for months, days, or years.

How Does Radon Infiltrate the property?

No home is completely airtight.

Vapors can infiltrate through every grounded vent in the home such as sump pumps, plumbing, and small cracks in the concrete work.

The way to know with certainty the concentration of radon in the property is to run a radon test.

Our Radon Test Method

Sampling a house for radon is a unique process when offered with a house sale.

Your radon gas specialist will position the radon analyzers in the dwelling. Radon gas analyzers will be installed on any level that touches the ground. On average multiple probes are installed in the home for the radon testing.

Your radon technician will close every window, close the damper on the fireplace, and make certain the air conditioning is operating in the standard manner. Your radon professional will also mark every necessary window with tamper indication tape to ensure that closed home requirements are maintained.

The radon apparatus are stored in the house for several days analyzing the prevalence of radon gas in the home. A specialist will revisit the structure after the radon measurement is done to remove the monitors and generate a report.
