Many homeowners will seek mitigation services even if the results are lower 4.0-- as there is no "healthy" level of radon exposure, and many countries have a much lower recommended action level than the US (for example, the World Health Organization sets the radon action level at 2.7 pCi/L). Radon levels can be controlled by installing a radon mitigation system in your home. Radon Mitigation Systems are affordable and installed in only one day by our highly trained and skilled technicians!
