We were very impressed with the overall quality
and expertise of Radon Home Measurement & Mitigation. They were
very careful with the placement of the fan and went above and beyond
our expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a
radon system in their home.

January 22, 2011:
The
"Radon and RDP measurement Provider Course" will be
given by Dr. L. Moorman for home
inspectors and members of the public who seek a NEHA-NRPP
certification for radon testing or a recertification, or just want
to do a refresher course. The (16 hr) course is scheduled to be
completed on
two saturdays:
Saturday January 28 (9-17:30) and Saturday February 11 (9-17:30).
Click on the "Contact Us" button and request the flier with complete
information about the course. As of this moment there are still a few
seats left. We are also looking into an alternative date to accomodate
people who cannot make it during one of the two regular dates.
Thank
you NCC-ASHI for organizing the well attended meeting "Busting the
Myth of Radon" during "National Radon Action Month" (January) on
January 14, at Keller Williams Realty Office. Our president
Dr. L. Moorman spoke as an expert in Radon testing and mitigation
on updated scientific evidence that radon causes lung cancer, together
with J. Rudolph (Building Science Inspections) and Gary Rogers
(Associate Broker, Keller Williams Realty of Northern Colorado). The audience gained a lot of new information about the radon issue in the
residential environment.
On a different note, RHMM
has installed several systems outside our immediate serving region in
Colorado this last year (2011), such as Wyoming, and Utah. Radon
mitigation systems were installed in Rawlins, (WY) Rock Springs
(WY), Salt Lake City (Utah), Durango (CO) and Aspen
(CO).

Radon Home Measurement
and Mitigation (RHMM) performs radon testing and radon mitigation of
single and multi-family
homes as well as radon testing and mitigation in commercial or business
locations, and delivers radon education to
interested groups and the public. RHMM also helps with radon
issues
emerging during real estate transactions, helping real estate brokers,
buyers and sellers to understand and deal with what may be a serious
environmental health issue in a home. Our goal is to identify those
places that represent a high radon exposure to the general public in
residential, commercial and business environment and, after
verification of an increased health risk, to fix the problem.
Furthermore
RHMM works with home owners, contractors and builders by pre-screening
a
building site before construction for its ability to show a radon risk
concern after completion. If this radon risk analysis shows a predicted
high concentration of radon, RHMM can install an effective
pre-mitigation system in new home construction. RHMM, located in Fort
Collins, can solve radon problems anywhere in Northern Colorado or
Wyoming.

focus on quality installations with maximum energy efficiency and
thoughtful
consideration to issues such as noise and aesthetics. The photo above

attic
of the house.

RHMM
has built an impressive
portfolio of data on radon mitigations over the years in the area. The
graph above shows a smoothed version of the resulting
frequency
distribution over a two year time interval early on. This indicates the
typical
post
mitigation radon
levels one can expect in our area with the three classes of radon
mitigation systems indicated. The class named "Ideal Systems" (red
area) results
typically in the lowest radon concentrations.

nomenclature can be found on the following page. More...
