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.

Why Properties Need Radon Testing in Akron, Ohio

The EPA classifies Summit County as a Zone 1 area, which indicates the highest predicted radon potential in an area. Properties that show concentrations at or above 4.0 pCi/L demand immediate attention, while readings from 2.0 to 4.0 pCi/L warrant remediation consideration.

Testing remains the sole method to determine actual exposure levels in your building. SWAT Environmental supplies DIY radon test kits for accurate measurement. Once you receive results, our specialists can interpret the data and recommend appropriate mitigation strategies for your situation.

Modern mitigation techniques can be adapted to most architectural styles and construction eras, whether your property sits in Merriman Valley’s established neighborhoods or near Cascade Valley Metro Park.
