A homeowner in Newark, Delaware, took a proactive approach to their son's safety. Concerned about potential radon exposure in the basement, where their son now resides, they promptly arranged for a professional radon monitor test with Lawson Home Services. Given the son's recent move to the basement and the home's construction in 1996 (28 years ago), a radon test was considered essential for peace of mind.
Radon testing can be a complex process, and using professionals like Lawson Home Services guarantees accurate results. Their trained technicians know the proper placement and procedures for radon monitors, ensuring a reliable picture of your home's radon levels. In this case, Lawson Home Services conducted the test and reported a level of 2.6 pCi/L, which falls below the EPA's action level where no corrective action is required. While this is positive news, it highlights the importance of professional testing. Improper testing methods can lead to inaccurate readings, potentially causing unnecessary worry or delaying crucial mitigation steps if radon levels are actually elevated.
