Radon Fan Replacement & System Repair

Is Your Radon Fan Grinding, Rattling, or Making Noise?

A properly functioning radon mitigation fan should operate continuously and relatively quietly. If your radon fan is grinding, rattling, vibrating, humming, or becoming unusually loud, it may be wearing out or beginning to fail.

Common signs your radon system may need service include:

  • Grinding or rattling from the radon fan

  • Excessive fan vibration

  • Fan running louder than normal

  • Fan stops running or operates intermittently

  • Radon system pressure gauge shows a change

  • Elevated radon levels after mitigation

  • Aging or damaged radon system components

Radon Fan Repair & Replacement

Don't wait for your radon fan to completely fail. A failed fan can prevent your radon mitigation system from properly reducing radon levels in your home.

We provide professional radon system inspections, troubleshooting, radon fan replacement, and mitigation system service. We'll evaluate your existing system, identify the problem, and recommend the appropriate repair or replacement.

Radon Gas Facts

​

  • Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas produced by the breakdown of uranium in soil and rock.

  • You can’t see, smell, or taste radon. Testing is the only way to know your home’s radon level.

  • Radon can enter any home through cracks, foundation openings, sump pits, drains, and other pathways.

  • New and older homes can both have elevated radon levels, regardless of foundation type.

  • Radon is the #1 cause of lung cancer among non-smokers in the United States.

  • Radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer overall, behind smoking.

  • The EPA recommends taking action at 4.0 pCi/L or higher.

  • No radon level is considered completely risk-free. The EPA also recommends considering mitigation between 2.0 and 4.0 pCi/L.

  • Radon levels can vary significantly from one home to another, even between neighboring properties.

  • Ohio has many areas with elevated radon potential, making testing especially important for homeowners and buyers.

  • Radon problems can be fixed. Professionally installed mitigation systems can significantly reduce indoor radon levels.

  • Testing is simple and affordable and can provide important information about your home's indoor air quality.

Radon Testing

Radon testing is the only way to determine the radon level in your home or property. Because radon is invisible, odorless, and tasteless, elevated levels can go unnoticed without proper testing.

  • Professional testing provides accurate, documented results using calibrated radon measurement equipment.

  • Short-term testing typically takes a minimum of 48 hours and provides a snapshot of current radon conditions.

  • Closed-building conditions are required before and during most short-term radon tests to help ensure reliable results.

  • Testing is recommended during real estate transactions so buyers and sellers can make informed decisions.

  • Existing homeowners should also test periodically, especially after renovations or changes to the home's HVAC or foundation.

  • Radon levels can change over time due to weather, soil conditions, ventilation, and changes to the home.

  • The EPA recommends mitigation at 4.0 pCi/L or higher and suggests considering corrective action between 2.0 and 4.0 pCi/L.

  • Post-mitigation testing is important to verify that a newly installed radon reduction system is working effectively.

Testing is simple. Knowing your radon level is the first step toward maintaining a safer indoor environment.
