Why is radon mitigation necessary?

Elevated radon is found through testing your home. If levels are elevated, it determines the need for mitigation. Radon Mitigation in Caledonia is necessary after air test shows elevated radon levels

Not every home in Caledonia, Wisconsin has elevated measurements but to give you an idea of why and how radon comes into the home, read the next paragraph.

Radon occurs naturally with the breakdown of uranium in our soils, rock and sometimes water. An air pressure in the interior of the home is mostly a lower pressure than that of the soil under and around the soil of the home circumference. With this difference in pressure, Caledonia homes and other Racine county homes act as a vacuum. This vacuum draws radon gas through large foundation cracks running through the foundation of the home. It is important to know that radon causes cancer and it is your best interest to rid your home from this cancer-causing agent.

The only way to determine what your neighborhood radon levels are on your street, is to test. Radon testing Caledonia neighborhoods will determine if levels are elevated.
