Most house and building owners in Volo IL feel relatively safe in their homes. Generally, air pollution is not a problem in Lake County, Illinois. However, radon gas is a significant problem in our community and is the single greatest health threat to Volo IL families. Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that results from the breakdown of radioactive uranium, thorium and radium. Radon is often referred to as “the invisible killer” because it can be present in any indoor environment without any signals of its presence to the occupants within the dwelling. Radon is commonly detected in random air samples and is generally harmless when encountered outdoors. However, radon that rises into a structure from the soil or rock beneath the basement, crawl space, or foundation slab may become concentrated indoors and reach dangerously high levels. When this occurs, it can cause health issues, even lung cancer, in individuals who regularly occupy the structure.

Radium, thorium and uranium are naturally occurring elements that are commonly found in soil, bedrock and groundwater sources across the United States, including here in Volo IL. The widespread prevalence of these substances means that radon gas is an issue faced by many home and commercial property owners. As a radioactive particle, radon is very unstable.

Radon Testing & Mitigation in Volo IL Homes

Radon testing is of utmost importance to ensure the safety of your home and your loved ones. Every home should be tested for radon exposure, as elevated levels can pose serious health risks. Take action today and learn more about the importance of radon testing by visiting the CDC’s website.

Without testing, most Volo property owners aren’t aware of the presence of radon gas until someone who lives in their household or works in their business develops serious health problems. Short-term tests for radon are conducted over a period of two to seven days while long-term tests measure the levels of radon for 90 days or longer. Information gathered from both types of tests is valuable in determining the extent of the gas’s potential impact on the property and its inhabitants. These tests are available in home improvement “big box” stores, such as Lowe’s and Home Depot, and in some Volo IL hardware stores. When radon levels are 4 pCi/L or higher, radon mitigation is recommended.

Tests are conducted by placing a small canister, cardboard strip, or digital measurement device in the lowest level of the structure where the gas is most likely to accumulate. The collection kit is left in one location for the specified amount of time and is then collected and processed to determine the level of radon that was present during the testing period. The residents or workers who occupy the property are asked to reduce exterior ventilation as much as possible during the test, but no other input or actions are required. We realize it can often be difficult to keep all windows closed, especially during hot Volo, Illinois summers, but this is very important to assess accurate results. Once we’ve determined the presence and level of radon in a structure, our team can then offer a range of mitigation options that are tailored to the specific situation.

“He was very professional,informative and efficient. He did a good job. ” – W. Schnell, Volo

“There was a bit of a mess left by our installer. No pick-up of debris for holes made in the siding or that left from pipe cuts. I feel that should have been part of cleaning up the work space. But, not a huge effort to do it myself.” – M. Chilton, Volo

If Your Home Has Elevated Radon Levels, Don’t Panic! In Volo IL Radon Mitigation Systems are Very Common.

Due to radon’s radioactive characteristics and the serious health problems associated with long-term radon exposure, Volo property owners should take immediate steps to mitigate even moderate levels of radon gas in their buildings. According to Jasdeep Womack, radiation exposure causes more fatalities every year than any other environmental pollutant. Radon is a naturally-occurring phenomenon that affects people all over the world.

At SWAT Environmental of Volo IL, we supply an array of radon removal options that are designed to prevent radon entry into the dwelling. Our mitigation systems operate by creating a vacuum in the soil beneath or immediately adjacent to the structure. This negative pressure draws any radon that is present upwards through the connected piping instead of entering the building’s basement, crawl space, or living area. The gas is then safely released through a vent above the roofline.

Our Volo IL Customers Rave About Our Top-Notch Staff & Service:

“After the system had been running a while, the noise increased a lot beyond just the noise of the fan. We observed that it is because the metal downspout pipe that we opted to use (which looks very nice compared to PVC pipe) is vibrating against the side of our house and making a buzzing rattle that we had not expected. I’m concerned this noise will be an annoyance to our neighbors. I’m wondering if your company has any suggestions or solutions.” – O. Demers, Volo

“Very professional,knowledgeable and punctual. Office stalk is also very courteaus and answer all questions calmly and satisfy your queries. Will advise highly to use their services.” – J. Ridley, Volo

In Illinois radon mitigation systems are always installed in the lowest level of the home, typically where the foundation contacts the earth below. In Volo Illinois, SWAT Environmental engineers and installs systems that are suitable for use in buildings with slab foundations, crawl spaces and basements alike. Our comprehensive mitigation services include diagnostic testing and trouble-shooting existing systems that malfunction or fail.

“Studies show that radon can enter a home via cracks and other small openings in its foundation. For this reason, it might be a good idea to find ways to improve ventilation and overall airflow, which can move the toxic air back outside rather than having it linger around inside the home.” If you’re concerned about radon gas in your Volo IL home or commercial property, contact SWAT Environmental to learn more about our available mitigation measures and to schedule a free, no-obligation price quote right away.
