Commercial Property Owners in Painesville, OH, should be made aware of the dangers of Radon, just like any homeowner. Whether you're in the process of purchasing a property, or whether you have owned one for a long time, if the property has never been tested for radon, there is no better time than now.
Radon Gas exposure can cause lung cancer, it's actually the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. Testing your property for radon is not something that should be put aside or taken lightly.
Radon is not something you can detect on your own with your sight, smell, or taste. The only way to know the concentration levels inside your building is to have it tested with a specific radon detection kit.
When deciding to have your property tested for radon, it's always in your best interest to hire a licensed Radon Testing company. This will ultimately save you time and money, as the professionals will be able to complete your testing correctly, and in a timely manner.

When you hire a licensed professional from Radon Eliminator to test your Commercial Property in Painesville, OH, they will send a certified technician to your property to complete an inspection and determine the amount of test kits needed to obtain an accurate reading.
They will place the kits in various areas throughout the building with instructions to touch or tamper with them. The kits will need to remain on the property for a minimum of 48 hours, so it's important to make sure they are not going to be disturbed during the testing process.
When the specialist returns to collect the kits, they will mail them to the radon lab who will analyze the results. The lab works quickly and will be able to send a copy of the test results to the specialist the same day they receive them in the mail.
Once your specialist knows the results of your property, they will be able to determine if radon mitigation is needed. Test kit results can vary, which means there may be certain areas of the property that need installations while others may not. This is normal and does not mean that the testing was done incorrectly.
If any of the test kits contain results of a 4.0 pCi/L or higher, it is advised by The Environmental Protection Agency to install mitigation systems to reduce the high concentration levels in the building.
It's important to realize that 4.0 is the action level, not the "consideration" level. According to the EPA, radon gas is at a dangerous level when it reaches 4.0 or higher.
Once you and the specialist are aware of the concentration levels, the technician will determine how many removal systems are needed to reduce the concentration levels in the building accurately. They will complete another inspection of the property and walk you through the installation process.
Before beginning any work, the contractor will make sure you know the price and the time frame in which all the work is supposed to be completed.
Once the installations are finished, the team will re-test the entire property to make certain that the installations are working properly. If for some reason they have not reduced the levels below the EPA action level, as part of our quality assurance guarantee, they will return and fix the problem at no added cost to you.
Hiring a licensed professional to assist with your testing and mitigation services is going to be your best option.
If you try and cut corners, you run the risk of wasting time and money. Ask for a companies credentials and license information before agreeing to anything. If they are not licensed with The Ohio Department of Health, and their technicians have not passed the testing and mitigation examinations, you should consider contacting another company.
This process can be quick and painless, or it can be drawn out and frustrating.
Choosing the right company is going to dictate whether your experience is the former or the latter.
