Radon Testing & Radon Mitigation For Home Sales in Illinois and Indiana

Whether you are you are selling or buying a home in Illinois & Indiana, Radon gas is a major concern. Those looking to sell their homes will need to perform a radon test. If this test comes back with elevated Radon levels, it is the homeowner’s responsibility to install a Radon mitigation solution. While it may be possible to lower Radon levels in the home through home improvements such as sealing foundation cracks and sealing sump pits, these tend to be temporary solutions. At Polar Heating and Air Conditioning, our Indoor Air Quality experts can perform Radon testing and offer Radon mitigation solutions that offer a permanent solution to this serious problem. Getting started is simple. If you are preparing to sell your home, or you are buying a new home in Chicago, the suburbs or NW Indiana Radon removal starts with these 3 easy steps.

• Contact us: Our representatives are ready to learn about your project and schedule a testing appointment to best accommodate your schedule.
• Perform the test: On your scheduled day our Radon removal technician will visit your home to place the Aprilaire® short-term test kit in the appropriate area of your home. The test will remain undisturbed for 3-7 days. Afterwards, the test will be mailed to a lab for analysis.

What is Radon?

Radon gas is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that is the byproduct of the breakdown of water and rocks. It has no color or odor and enters homes through cracks and holes in your foundation or crawlspace. Currently it is estimated that 30 states have elevated radon levels. Illinois and Indiana are amongst them. Furthermore, only 15% of homeowners have tested for Radon since they bought their homes.

Surprisingly, many of us have heard about the dangers of Radon but have done nothing about it. Many homeowners simply don’t know where to begin or what is involved in the process. The fact is that Radon remediation and testing is easy and the installation of a radon fan is relatively straightforward and affordable.

While it is easy to become distracted by everyday life, it is important to protect yourself and your family from the harmful effects of this silent killer. It is time to stop waiting until the right time, or when you are going to sell your home. Radon is not waiting to harm your health and the health of everyone in your home.
