Common Radon Mitigation FAQ’s

Yes, soil type plays a major role in how much radon migrates from the ground into a home. Coarse, loose, or highly permeable soils such as gravel, sand, or fractured rock allow radon to travel more freely and enter homes more readily. Dense, clay-rich soils may slow radon migration but can still allow gas to build up beneath a foundation. Homes situated over uranium-rich granite bedrock – common in parts of the Appalachian Mountains and Piedmont regions – tend to face the highest radon risk.

Yes, absolutely. Radon levels change over time due to shifts in soil conditions, changes in home pressurization, new construction or renovations, and seasonal variations. A previous test result (especially one that is more than two years old) may not accurately reflect current conditions. Additionally, if a mitigation system was installed previously, you need to verify it is still functioning properly and maintaining acceptable radon levels. Always conduct a fresh test when moving into a new home.

Yes, home renovations can significantly affect radon levels in either direction. Adding living space in a basement, sealing or opening areas of the foundation, changing HVAC systems, or altering the home’s envelope can all change how radon enters and accumulates. In some cases, renovations inadvertently seal entry points and reduce radon, while in others they create new pathways for radon ingress. It is always a good practice to test your home for radon after any significant renovation, particularly those involving the foundation or basement.

Yes, HVAC systems can influence radon concentrations in your home. Forced-air heating systems can depressurize lower levels of the home, creating a stronger vacuum effect that draws more radon in from the soil. On the other hand, some HVAC systems introduce fresh outdoor air, which can dilute indoor radon. The interaction between your HVAC system and radon is complex and home-specific. A professional radon assessment takes HVAC system type and operation into account when designing a mitigation solution.

Radon concentrations are generally highest in the lowest areas of a home because radon enters from the soil below and is heaviest relative to other air components. Basements, ground-floor rooms, and rooms with poor ventilation tend to have the highest radon levels. Upper floors typically have lower concentrations due to dilution as the gas rises and mixes with indoor air. Testing in the lowest occupied level of the home is the most critical measurement for determining health risk.
