Radon Gas in Missouri
The US Surgeon General strongly urges every home, school and office in the US to be tested for Radon gas.
About 1 in 15 homes across the United States is estimated to have Radon levels exceeding the EPA's action level. 1 in every 5 homes in Missouri are believed to be above the acceptable EPA limit.
Most radon mitigation systems in Missouri are installed in homes that had initial readings between 4-10 pCi/L. Homes are occasionally above 20 pCi/l, however, we have mitigated homes with over 80 pCi/L.
All homes should be tested in a real estate transaction, even if they have a radon mitigation system. Homes with radon systems should be retested at least every two years.
Testing is the only way to know if you have elevated levels of radon.
