"I called David asking for a Radon test, within 45 minutes he arrived at my house. After he performed the test, we decided to have a unit installed. From start to finish David & his team was nothing but professional. I highly recommend David Cook Radon Services. 5 stars…Thanks again"

Without satisfied customers we would not be the leading radon company in the Midwest.\n \nRadon Solutions is proud of its reputation of prompt, reliable service, quality installations, and attention to detail. An experienced professional is always available to answer your questions or address your concerns in a prompt and courteous manner.\n \nWe take pride in our accomplishments and look forward to providing you with the best possible radon testing and mitigation experience available. Just ask our customers!\n\nWhether it's your home, your office, or both, Radon Solutions has your solution. Our trained professionals will work with you every step of the way to deliver a high quality system to address your radon problem and restore your peace of mind.\n \nRadon Solutions provides high quality active soil depressurization systems that are guaranteed to reduce elevated radon levels. Should a radon mitigation system be needed, we will custom design a system based on the building characteristics of each individual home/building.\n \nThe best practice for radon mitigation is active sub-slab depressurization. The goal is to capture and contain the radon before it enters the living space, then force the gas out of the home.\n\n \n\n\nOverview of a typical active sub-slab depressurization system. \n\nHere are the basic steps for creating an active sub-slab depressurization system to remove radon from the home:\n \n•\nInstall one or more perforated suction pipes in a layer of gravel beneath the slab. These pipes will collect the radon from the soil.\n \n•\nConnect these suction pipes to one solid piece of pipe that extends from below the slab up through the roof. This pipe is used to carry the radon from the sub-slab out through the top of the home where it can be diluted in the atmosphere.\n \n•\nConnect a radon vent fan to the suction pipe, usually in the attic. This fan will make the sub-slab depressurization "active" and will force the radon from the home.

"Installed radon mitigation system in basement. Pros: 1) reduced overall radon levels by about 75% 2) they did the work in extreme cold temps 3) done in about 4 hours Cons: 1) They arrived late (although they did call to let me know) 2) they did not wear boot covers or put down any floor protector when walking on my carpet 3) they set dirty toolboxes and caulk guns directly on carpet 4) exhaust pipe is too close to roof peak and can be seen from street view of house Overall, good job. I can live with seeing the pipe from the street. I would recommend based on the overall work."

FAQs for radon gas abatement projects in Loves Park, IL

The only way to know whether your home or water supply contains radon is to schedule a professional test. A qualified radon inspector will collect samples, deliver lab-verified results, and explain the findings for $150 to $800. Once you know your exact levels, you and your radon mitigation pro can choose the right system and tackle the problem before it affects your family’s health.

Both roles tackle radon, but they focus on different steps. Inspectors test your home, interpret the results, and determine whether levels exceed EPA guidelines. Mitigation pros design and install the system that lowers those levels. Some companies do both, but the skills and equipment differ, so always verify that the person you hire is properly certified for the specific service you need.

Installing a mitigation unit fixes radon problems by reducing indoor gas levels to established safe standards. A system designed and installed by a mitigation expert, tailored to your home's specific layout and foundation, guarantees effective radon reduction. This expert installation ensures consistent performance over time while safeguarding your indoor air quality.

Open windows and doors do not reduce radon levels because they trigger a pressure imbalance that draws radon-laden air into your home. This practice fails to control radon concentration and can even worsen the issue. An active suction mitigation system provides a proven, safe, and effective solution to reliably reduce radon levels.

Radon mitigation systems generally last between 10 and 30 years, depending on system type and maintenance. Passive systems endure the longest because they have no moving parts, whereas active systems, which use a fan, require fan replacement every 5 to 10 years. System components, such as PVC pipes, seals, and fittings, can remain effective for decades when paired with periodic inspections and proper maintenance.

Radon mitigation systems consume between 300 and 3,000 kWh of electricity per year, depending on fan size and system design. On average, an active radon fan draws 100 to 300 watts continuously, which translates to roughly 876 kWh annually, and adds $30 to $300 to your energy bill each year. Choosing a high-efficiency fan and ensuring tight sealing around pipes helps minimize these ongoing costs.
