Frequently Asked Questions on Residential Radon Testing

Here are our most asked questions regarding our radon testing services. Please get in touch if you have any other queries.

Radon is a naturally occurring, odorless, invisible gas that seeps into homes through cracks in foundations, walls, and gaps around pipes. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, and New Mexico has areas with elevated radon levels, particularly around Santa Fe, Albuquerque, and the surrounding mountain communities. Testing is important for several critical reasons:

  • You cannot detect radon without a test. There are no visible signs or symptoms of exposure until long-term health effects develop.
  • Every home is different. Even neighboring houses can have vastly different radon levels due to soil composition and construction differences.
  • The EPA recommends testing all homes, regardless of age or location.
  • It is quick and affordable. Professional testing gives you accurate results so you can take action if levels are high.

Radon levels in your home can change over time due to shifts in soil conditions, weather patterns, and changes to your home’s structure. That means a single test does not guarantee your home will remain protected indefinitely. Regular testing is the only way to stay informed and protect your family.

Here is a general testing schedule to follow:

  • Every two years. The EPA recommends retesting your home at least every two years, even if previous results were low.
  • After renovations. Major projects like foundation work, new additions, or changes to your HVAC system can alter radon entry points and airflow.
  • After installing a mitigation system. Retesting confirms the system is working effectively and keeping levels below the EPA’s action level of 4.0 pCi/L.
  • When buying or selling a home. A current test provides peace of mind for both parties.

Professional radon testing is straightforward and minimally invasive. Our team handles everything so you can feel confident in the accuracy of your results. Here is what the process looks like from start to finish:

  1. Scheduling and preparation. We set up a convenient appointment and ask that windows and exterior doors remain closed for at least 12 hours before testing begins.
  2. Device placement. Our certified technician places professional-grade testing equipment in the lowest livable level of your home, typically a basement or ground floor.
  3. Monitoring period. The device remains undisturbed for a minimum of 48 hours, continuously measuring radon concentrations in your air.
  4. Device retrieval and analysis. We collect the equipment and analyze the data to determine your home’s radon levels.
  5. Results and recommendations. You receive a detailed report, and if levels exceed the EPA’s action level of 4.0 pCi/L, we discuss next steps.

Radon testing can be done any time of year, but the fall and winter months tend to produce the most accurate results. During colder seasons, homes are sealed up tightly with windows and doors kept closed, which allows radon to accumulate to its highest concentrations. This gives you a clearer picture of your home’s peak exposure levels.

That said, radon is a year-round concern, and testing should never be delayed simply because of the season. Levels fluctuate throughout the year based on weather, soil moisture, and temperature changes, so any test provides valuable insight into your home’s air quality.

If you have never tested your home or it has been more than two years since your last test, now is the right time. Contact Radon Pro of New Mexico to schedule your test today.

The cost of professional radon testing depends on several factors, including the size of your home, the type of test performed, and the specific needs of your property. Every home is different, which is why we recommend speaking directly with our team to get accurate pricing for your situation.

While DIY test kits are available at a lower price point, they are far less reliable than professional-grade equipment and can produce inaccurate readings that put your family at risk. Professional testing ensures precise results from certified technicians who follow strict EPA protocols.

When you consider that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, testing is one of the most worthwhile investments you can make for your home. Give Radon Pro of New Mexico a call today to learn more.

DIY radon test kits are available at most hardware stores, but they come with significant limitations. These kits are highly sensitive to user error, including improper placement, inadequate closed-home conditions, and mishandling during the mail-in analysis process. Even small mistakes can lead to misleading results.

Professional radon testing eliminates these concerns entirely. Our expert technicians use calibrated, professional-grade monitors that deliver precise, real-time measurements of your home’s radon levels. They also follow strict EPA guidelines for device placement and testing conditions, ensuring your results are dependable.

When it comes to something as serious as radon exposure, accuracy matters. Rather than risking an unreliable reading, trust the experts at Radon Pro of New Mexico to get the job done right. Call us today to learn more.

Absolutely. Radon testing is completely non-invasive, and you can continue living in your home as normal throughout the entire process. The testing device is small, quiet, and placed out of the way in the lowest livable level of your home.

The only thing we ask is that you maintain closed-home conditions during the testing period. This means keeping windows and exterior doors shut as much as possible and avoiding the use of fans that bring in outside air. These conditions allow for the most accurate reading of your home’s radon levels.

Beyond that, there is nothing to worry about. Our team handles everything, and your daily routine can carry on uninterrupted. Call Radon Pro of New Mexico if you have any additional questions.

The radon testing process is designed to be thorough yet efficient, so you are never left waiting long for answers. From start to finish, most homeowners receive their results within just a few days. The process moves through three simple stages:

  • Testing period. The monitoring device remains in your home for a minimum of 48 hours to capture an accurate measurement of radon concentrations.
  • Device retrieval. Once the testing window is complete, our technician picks up the equipment at a scheduled time.
  • Results delivery. After a brief analysis, we provide you with a detailed report of your home’s radon levels, typically within 24 hours of retrieval.

If elevated levels are detected, we are prepared to discuss next steps with you immediately. Call Radon Pro of New Mexico today to schedule your test and get the answers you need.
