Call a licensed radon mitigation contractor. These are not DIY projects for a weekend.
Actually, you could try a DIY aeration system if you’re super handy. But one wrong pipe and you vent radon into your kid’s bedroom. Not ideal.
Just pay a pro. It’s worth the peace of mind.
The Gross But Important Final Note
Once you install a system, test your water again. Make sure the radon is actually gone.
Also, replace filters and check the vent pipes yearly. Radon doesn’t take vacations.
And if your carbon tank gets heavy? That means it’s full of trapped, radioactive gas. Handle it with care.
You’ve got this. Seriously.
Radon is scary, but it’s also fixable. You’re already ahead by reading this instead of ignoring it.
Now go book that test. And maybe take shorter showers until then. Your lungs will high-five you later.
