Why You May Need A NRPP Certified Radon Test
If you are a home buyer, a seller or a home owner you may need a radon test. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Surgeon General, and the National Radon Safety Board recommend testing all homes below the third floor for radon.
A radon test is the only way to know if a home has a radon problem. Radon can be a silent killer. It is an invisible, odorless, tasteless gas that can reach dangerous levels when trapped indoors. Long term exposure (more than 10 years) adds to the risk of lung cancer. Radon risk is also more of concern for smokers, with a higher increase in the risk factor.
Wouldn’t you ask that the radon test be completed by a NRPP certified residential measurement specialist to ensure the most reliable radon results at the lowest possible cost?
With certifications, you know you have selected a high qualified tester who brings to the job technical proficiency and professionalism.
