Do I need to test for radon?
YES! The only way to determine if you are at risk for high radon levels in your home is to perform radon testing. The EPA and Surgeon General recommend testing for all homes below the third floor. EPA further recommends that homes with high radon concentration be mitigated. ValueGuard is a test only firm to avoid any conflict of interest. We do not perform or recommend radon mitigation services.
