Radon has innumerable health risks and dangerous side effects. There is no acceptable radon gas limit in any area. But U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends it to be below 4 picoCuries per liter of air (pCi/L). Many areas in the US are radon affected....
If your house is radon-infected, your radon mitigation fan must work constantly. Why? If you stop the fan, the radon levels can start increasing rapidly. You need to be constantly guarding your home against it. The only to do that is to keep the fan working...
Radon gas removal from the house generally involves a radon mitigation system. After there is a radon detection in your house or locality, make sure you install a mitigation system. Why? Do not wait to see the negative impacts of this gas; start taking...
Radon is a dangerous but naturally occurring radioactive gas. Some amounts of radon are always present in the air. WHO reports say that the outside radon level is somewhere between 5 Bq/m3 to 15 Bq/m3. But radon concentration tends to be higher inside homes/offices....
EPA recommends homes start mitigation if the radon level is 4 pCi/L (picocuries per liter). If the soil and rocks under your home start emitting radon gas, then your home can be in danger. This is a naturally occuring radioactive gas, so there is no way to stop it....
Tommy and team at Atlantic Radon were excellent. My interior row townhome was a challenge, and they went above and beyond to walk me through multiple options before we decided on a creative solution. I couldn’t be happier with the result and highly recommend them for your radon needs.

I would recommend Atlantic Real Estate Services for radon mitigation services. Tommy was very knowledgeable and spent time explaining his plan and process to me. I live in a townhouse and he took the extra time and effort to ensure the system was done well and in a fashion that is beneficial to the home owner. He ran the exhaust piping through our basement ceiling in order to keep it out of sight and because our maintenance room and sump pump are in the front of the house. No other company who quoted us were willing to run the exhaust through our ceiling. So far the radon levels have maintained below 1.0. I was very pleased with his work.

AtlanticRadon made something we had been dreading undertaking very easy and seamless. They installed a radon mitigation system and crawl-space vapor barrier, and worked with us to find the best placement for the systems. The job was carried out quickly and very professionally. I definitely recommend this company, and addressing any radon issue sooner than later. The peace of mind alone from knowing my family’s health is protected is worth the money.

Tommy is a consummate professional, a straight shooter, and an excellent communicator. He and his team (Austin did a lot of the on-the-ground work) were extremely quick, clean, and efficient in the install, solving some small engineering challenges on the fly. I came to Tommy with a bunch of questions about the systems they use and the results we could expect (our house in Annapolis was below the EPA limit prior to mitigation, but we hoped to get lower) and he was clear, deliberative, and in no way trying to sell me something as he taught me bits of his trade.
I will recommend Atlantic Radon to anyone in the area in need of a radon test, radon mitigation, or sump-pump repair and maintenance, and would trust them in any project they were involved in. Tommy, who has experience doing home inspection, was overall really knowledgeable and helpful, and connected us with local contractors for other projects before we move in. I really couldn't have been more pleased.
