Westminster Radon Testing

What is Radon?

Radon is a dangerous cause of cancer. It is proven to instigate lung cancer in humans.

38%+ of properties in the Westminster area have a radon gas level at or above the carcinogenic limit.

Radon gas comes from the silt, not the structure. No structure- new or old – is fully encapsulated against radon gas contamination.

Every house interfaces with the topsoil uniquely. That is part of the reason why properties next to others may have radically different radon saturation.

Radon gas accumulation will change daily and seasonally inside of a reasonable range. A quick radon gas sample measures a small period and a dependable bellwether of whether the house has radon contamination.

Radon gas has a dangerous duration of only a few days. radon gas accumulation won’t be worse if the house is closed for years, months, or days.

How Does Radon Gas Seep into the Structure?

No property is entirely airtight.

Radon may infiltrate through every penetration in the property such as drains, pipeworks, and even minor cracks in the concrete foundation.

Your way to know certainly the levels of radon gas in the home is to have a radon test.

Our Radon Gas Test Method

Testing a home for radon is an important process when delivered concurrently with a house sale.

The radon gas specialist will install the radon probes in the dwelling. Radon monitors are dropped off in crawl spaces and on the first floor. Typically, up to three analyzers are placed in the property for the radon test.

Our radon professional will seal every window, seal the vent on the fireplace, and ensure the heating and cooling system is functioning in the required manner.
