Radon tests
+$75 with Home Inspection
At Envision Home Inspections, we offer reliable short-term radon testing using charcoal canister detectors to accurately measure radon levels inside your home. Radon is a naturally occurring, odorless, and colorless gas that can seep into buildings through foundation cracks or openings, and long-term exposure can pose serious health risks. Our short-term charcoal canister tests are placed in the lowest livable area of the home for 48 to 96 hours, following EPA testing guidelines. Once the test period is complete, the canisters are sent to a certified laboratory for precise analysis. This fast, affordable test provides peace of mind and ensures your home meets EPA safety standards for indoor air quality. Radon inhalation is the number one cause of lung cancer in non-smokers!
Learn about Radon
Radon tests can be performed upon request. 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. A test consists of a special canister being left in the homes lowest point for a minimum of 48 hours. Once the time is up the canister is sent to a lab where the results are processed. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), there is no known safe level of exposure to radon, and all levels pose some risk. However, the EPA recommends that homes be fixed if radon levels are 4 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) or higher, and that Americans consider fixing their homes for levels between 2 pCi/L and 4 pCi/L.
What is efflorescence?
Usually found in basements, efflorescence is a sign of moisture intrusion. It’s caused by soluble salts and other water-dispersible materials coming to the surface due to low temperatures, moist conditions, condensation, rain, dew, and water added to fresh concrete. When the crystals of these salts are exposed to dry air, they lose some or all of their water of crystallization, causing the surface to appear powdery. Efflorescence is usually white, yellow, or brown in color.
Things to look out for.
Did you know homes built prior to 1978 may have paint containing lead? If your home is of this age it is recommended to have your walls tested. It’s important to remember, lead paint is only a serious health risk when it’s disturbed– so you should not try to remove it yourself. Sanding, scraping, or exposing the area or too, much heat can create toxic fumes and poison you.
What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a natural mineral made of invisible fibers that’s resistant to heat, fire, and chemicals. It’s been used in many industries for decades because of these properties, including in insulation (Vermiculite), fireproofing materials, automotive brakes, plaster wallboards and paper products. In 1989 the use of asbestos was banned by the EPA and the band has since been revoked only for specific uses mostly in the chlor-alkali industry. Asbestos exposure is known to cause lung cancer, mesothelioma and a long list of non- cancer related issues.
