"This company is great to work with. They did some mold testing on parents’ home and did excellent work. They also did some work on my home. They replaced a water heater and bathroom fans. He was easy to get a hold of, personable and come over right away."

"Tom and Josh arrived on the day and time promised. They were both very polite, professional and worked extremely well together. They explained exactly what they were doing and why they were doing it! They installed the radon Mitigation system and went above and beyond expectations. They cleaned up after themselves. After the job was complete, it looks like it has always been here. What more can you ask? I will definitely recommend DC Mitigation for anyone who needs this service!"

"A++ service. Mike performed an excellent job testing a house we are in the process of purchasing in addition to the Radon testing. We found him to be personable, straight forward, detailed, honest and informative. Each area of concern, Mike provided clear details for the rating given which included pictures with arrows pointing to the exact location. Overall process went smoothly. Would gladly hire again in the future and/or provide as a reference."

"The entire process was very smooth. The website is extremely easy to use and has a great user interface for scheduling appointments, reading about the inspectors, and viewing/sharing reports. William showed up early for the inspection and was extremely thorough. He took pictures of everything, and he provided me with explanations as we walked through the house of good things and bad things. His report was thorough and very well documented. The inspection took about 1.5 hours. As he was finishing up, the radon testing agent showed up and had everything set up within 10 minutes. I received the home inspection report two (2) business days after the inspection, as promised by William. For the home inspection with radon test, it was $825, but I felt it was worth it considering the magnitude of the purchase!"

"My fiancé and I needed a home inspection and Radon testing for two houses. We are first time buyers so Mike was very thorough on the inspection and took the time out to teach us everything to look for. The pricing was expensive compared to other providers, but I thought he was worth it. We ended up going with a different house and he dropped the price for a repeat customer"

"As a home inspector I readily see radon mitigation systems either already installed or needing to be installed based on radon results from the testing I perform. I have performed post mitigation testing after safe haven has installed mitigation systems and the quality of work as well as no issues of radon being present have I found, would definitely recommend and I would personally hire this company if I needed to install a radon mitigation system in my home."

FAQs for radon gas abatement projects in Vernon Hills, 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.
