Radon Mitigation and Testing in Thornton, CO

Radon Mitigation and Testing in Thornton, CO

Radon is an invisible, odorless gas that you cannot detect without proper testing equipment. This radioactive gas penetrates structures from below, and two identical homes built side-by-side can register vastly different readings. SWAT Environmental offers simple DIY test kits and radon mitigation when needed. We’ll help you make sense of your results so you know exactly what steps to take.

Our Approach to Radon Mitigation

Radon measurements of 4.0 pCi/L or more trigger the need for professional intervention. SWAT Environmental builds custom systems that pull radon up from beneath your foundation and send it into the open air, where it can’t harm you. Our crews typically complete installations during a single workday, restoring normalcy quickly.

When you pick SWAT Environmental, you’re getting Thornton’s top radon experts — and we’re backed by the biggest radon company in the whole country.

What is radon?

Radon is a naturally occurring, radioactive gas that escapes when uranium in the soil decays. Radon becomes concentrated in a home, school or workplace as it seeps through cracks in the foundation or other natural openings in a structure.

At SWAT Environmental, we are dedicated to protecting families in Denver from radon exposure. Through our radon remediation process, our radon mitigation technicians have installed radon mitigation systems that reduce radon gas and make the air you breathe safer. Also, see our radon testing kits!

Since 1988, SWAT Environmental has been keeping families safe from radon. Our mitigation specialists have installed thousands of systems to reduce radon to safer levels. Our people are trained to meet EPA, AARST and NRPP standards, which means you can have peace of mind that your system is done the right way.

Radon Testing

Testing your home or business is simple. Pick up a short-term test kit from any hardware store or order one online. We can provide a free radon test kit to help you get started.

Your kit will come with instructions. You’ll typically need to put it in the lowest level of your home or building, leave it there for a few days, and mail it off to the lab so a professional can determine the level of radon you’re exposed to.

Radon Mitigation

If laboratory analysis confirms elevated radon, SWAT Environmental will build a custom mitigation system for your home or business. We use a tried-and-true method called sub-slab depressurization that extracts radon from beneath your building and exhausts it above the roofline, preventing indoor accumulation.
