How Radon Enters Your Home

Click on the buttons below to learn more

Water

Radon entering the home through water is a small risk compared with radon entering your home from the soil. Well water can bring radon into the home through the shower or other water sources.

Soil

Soil and rocks are the main causes of radon issues in a home. Due to the pressure difference between the inside and outside of your home, your home acts like a vacuum drawing radon through foundation cracks and other openings.

Cracks

Whether there are cracks in the concrete slab, pores and cracks in concrete blocks or floor-wall joints, all exposed openings can allow radon to be brought into the home.

Drainage

An open drain tile system will allow radon to enter in the home at a faster rate and increase the levels of radon. A sump can also be another area where radon can enter your home. Radon levels should be checked if either of these improvements have been made to your home since you purchased it.

Crawl Space

Radon entering the home through water is a small risk compared with radon entering your home from the soil. Well water can bring Radon into the home through the shower or other water sources.

Testing

The first step to help ensure the safety of you and your family’s health and safety is to have your home tested for radon. At St. Louis Radon, our professional testers deploy the latest in computerized electronic real-time radon monitoring technology to provide you with a comprehensive report, including a complete visual graph of radon level data points as recorded over a 48-hour sampling period.

Mitigation

If testing indicates levels of radon that require action, our team of engineers and technicians will design and install a custom radon mitigation system to safely and effectively redirect radon and other soil gasses out of your home. We also take additional measures to seal and close other possible breaches in the foundation that could let soil gasses into the through cracks or drain tiles systems.

New Construction

The only way to know if your new home has a radon problem is to test. If your home is built with a passive radon system, you should test it immediately after moving in to make sure that radon levels are below the EPA guideline. Remember: If your radon level is 4.0 pCi/L or above, a fan can be installed easily to lower radon levels well below this guideline.
