Understanding Radon in Windsor

Local geology

Located within the Great Plains, Windsor’s geological structure, featuring primarily gravel and sand soils, contributes to its varying radon levels.

How it gets in

Radon moves up through soil and into homes through foundation cracks, sump pits, and gaps around pipes.

Winter peaks

Levels usually peak in January and February, when houses are sealed up, so a summer test may understate your year-round exposure.

Neighborhood Dynamics

In areas like Mariana Butte and The Lakes at Centerra, characterized by their picturesque views, older construction may lead to increased radon infiltration, calling for effective mitigation solutions.

Environmental Influences

Windsor’s climate, characterized by its four distinct seasons, leads to soil expansion and contraction, heightening radon risks through foundation crevices.

Local experience

Evergreen RCS has mitigated homes of every age and foundation type across Windsor, from historic properties to brand-new builds.

Already have a passive system? Upgrading it is usually faster and more affordable than a new install.

Buying or selling a house?

Radon testing is standard in Colorado real estate transactions and usually lands in the inspection period with a closing date already attached. A valid short term test takes 2-3 days in closed house conditions, so it can’t be compressed. If you’re working against a deadline, say so when you call and we’ll tell you what we can do.

Your Radon Mitigation Questions Answered

Here are our most frequently asked questions regarding radon mitigation, but feel free to reach out if you have any additional ones.

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that is produced by the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water. It is invisible, odorless, and tasteless, which makes it difficult to detect without specialized equipment. The primary health concern associated with radon is its potential to cause lung cancer. In fact, radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. Long-term exposure to high levels of radon can significantly increase the risk for lung cancer, making it a significant public health concern. Radon gas enters buildings through cracks and openings in the foundation and can accumulate to unsafe levels, particularly in areas with poor ventilation. Given the high prevalence of radon in many areas, testing homes and buildings for radon is crucial to ensure safe living conditions. Fortunately, there are effective methods to reduce radon levels in buildings, commonly referred to as radon mitigation.

Testing for radon in your home is a straightforward process, and there are several options available to homeowners. One common method is to use a DIY radon test kit, which can be purchased from home improvement stores or online. These kits typically include a small canister or vial that you place in the lowest lived-in level of your home, such as the basement or first floor, for a specified period, usually between 2 to 90 days. After the test period, you send the canister to a lab for analysis. Another option is to hire a certified radon measurement professional. These professionals use more sophisticated equipment, such as continuous radon monitors, which provide more accurate and detailed results over a shorter testing period. Hiring a professional is particularly advisable if you are buying or selling a home, as it ensures reliable results. Regardless of the method you choose, testing is the only way to know if your home has a radon problem.

While lung cancer is the primary documented health effect, some research suggests possible links between radon exposure and other cancers, leukemia, and cardiovascular effects. However, these associations are less established than the well-documented lung cancer connection.

Yes, pets living in homes with elevated radon face similar lung cancer risks as humans. Some studies suggest dogs may be at heightened risk because they spend more time at floor level where radon concentrations are highest and cannot advocate for testing or remediation.

Yes, radon levels can increase over time due to a variety of factors. Changes in building structure, such as new cracks in the foundation, renovations, or changes in ventilation, can alter how radon enters a home. Seasonal variations can also impact radon levels, as colder weather increases the pressure difference between the interior and exterior of a house, typically drawing more radon inside. Moreover, changes in soil structure around the home or new construction nearby can potentially increase radon entry. Therefore, it is advised to periodically test radon levels in a home, even if previous testing showed low levels. Routine testing ensures that any increase in radon levels is detected early and addressed promptly to maintain a safe living environment.

Soil composition, foundation construction, entry points, and air pressure dynamics vary even between adjacent properties. One home might sit over a uranium-rich rock seam while a neighbor’s foundation rests on different geology just feet away, resulting in dramatically different radon levels.

Buildings trap radon because foundations rest on radon-producing soil, and the structure prevents the gas from dispersing as it would outdoors. Pressure differentials draw soil gas indoors, and reduced ventilation compared to outdoors allows radon to accumulate rather than diluting away.

Having a radon mitigation system in place can positively impact the resale value of your home. Prospective buyers are increasingly aware of radon and its health risks, and having an effective mitigation system can be a selling point. It demonstrates to potential buyers that the house is safe and has been well maintained. Knowing that radon levels are under control will provide potential buyers peace of mind and can even streamline the home-selling process, as it can prevent prolonged negotiations or reduced offers due to radon concerns detected during inspections. While the installation of a radon mitigation system involves some cost, it is often considered an investment that increases the value and marketability of your property.

Not necessarily – new homes can have equal or higher radon levels than older homes. While newer construction may be tighter against radon entry in some ways, the increased airtightness can also trap radon that does enter, and foundation quality varies regardless of age.
