Homes built last 30+ years, most likely have a passive system already (tube coming out of the basement to your roof). if you already have that, installing a fan is super easy. if you don't already have a passive system, then it will be more costly.

Interesting, thanks. Yes, home going on 90 years.

Any issues with the noise made by system? Any tips/advice appreciated.

The fan i installed in the attic is very quiet. Can't hear anything. I hope your reading is well below 4pCi/L w/ a system in place. Mine is no more than 0.3/0.4 pCi/L long term.

Thanks all for the suggestions.

you can go to google map showing your area and type in radon remediation and check each one for reviews.

OP, we used this guy in MD. He was really good and very nice person.

Where ya?

We had our home tested when we purchased the homes years ago. It was below remediation level, but this was in the spring. Fast forward 10 years, and I had a panic attack recently reading about radon. Went to get a radon detector, ran it for a few hours, and found out my house has radon level that are relatively high, moreso in the basement than in the upper floors. Needless to say, I am very worried.

I googled to see what contractors DCUrbanmom recommends. I mostly see the name Radon Abatement Services mentioned. Will be calling around today to get quotes and get this process started. Can you recommend a few more names? Help!
