Radon can be found throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania including the City of Philadelphia. Radon comes from the natural (radioactive) breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water and gets into the air you breathe. Radon can be found all over the U.S. It can get into any type of building — homes, offices, and schools — and result in a high indoor radon level. But you and your family are most likely to get your greatest exposure at home, where you spend most of your time.

Radon is a radioactive gas. It comes from the natural decay of uranium that is found in nearly all soils. It typically moves up through the ground to the air above and into your home through cracks and other holes in the foundation. Your home traps radon inside, where it can build up. Any home may have a radon problem. This means new and old homes, well-sealed and drafty homes, and homes with or without basements.

You should test for radon. Testing is the only way to know if you and your family are at risk from radon. EPA and the Surgeon General recommend testing all homes below the third floor for radon. EPA also recommends testing in schools. Testing is inexpensive and easy.

You can fix a radon problem. Radon reduction systems work and they are not too costly. Some radon reduction systems can reduce radon levels in your home by up to 99%. Even very high levels can be reduced to acceptable levels.

ValueGuard Uses Tamper Resistant Radon Monitors in Pennsylvania. At ValueGuard we strive to make radon testing convenient and affordable.  In Pennsylvania our certified Radon Technicians utilize continuous electronic monitors which detect any unusual readings of radon, temperature and humidity caused by opening surrounding windows.  Tilt and power sensors detect if the monitor is moved to a different location.  Hourly barometric pressure readings will help detect unusual radon averages due to extreme weather conditions.  All data is reviewed for any signs of suspected tampering by a team of professionals.  Our Radon testing is reliable, accurate and easy to perform for our clients.
