Dear Leo:
Enclosed is the payment for the radon mitigation you performed at our
home.
Thank you so much for the professional job. We would not hesitate to
recommend your company to anyone with a radon problem.
Radon Measurements for
Home & Commercial Properties
Short term simultaneous
passive integrating tests
Short term hourly CRM
test
Short term RDP test
(OSHA)
Long term Alpha Track
test
Reasons why RHMM can help
you with your radon testing in your Home, Business or during Real
Estate transactions: A fully certified person by
the National Environmental Health Association (NEHA) will do the test EPA standards and procedures
will be followed. Minimum 48 hour test ("Short
Term" test) will be observed. Closed house conditions will
be observed 12 hours prior to, and during test.
Typically, for 7 days
to 63 days: Long Term E-PERM detector.
For more than 90 days,
up to one year: Alphatrack-type
These Long Term Radon tests may also be useful after mitigation has
been done, and for the one year or bi-annual follow-up tests.
Quick Turnaround Time of Results: Immediately
after the test we will call you with the results. If desired we fax a
written report to you within 24 hours after the end of the test. If mitigation is recommended
according to norms set by the EPA we can inform you of the
possibility and give you a free estimate of the costs for mitigation.
Measuring radon
concentration in your home.
If you have read the linked pages above, you now understand what radon
is, where it comes from, how it can affect our health and who is at
risk. In the next few linked pages we give some more information about
how to measure the radon level in your home and when is the best time
for testing. It is best to use a testing company that is certified by
the National Environmental Health Association (NEHA, or recently also
the NRSB), because for a company to be certified they have agreed to
follow the guidelines and standardized protocols formulated by the EPA
(See below).
In order to give more background information we have added some Radon
Statistics by County, and to emphasize the fact that the problem of
radon in homes is a generally recognized health concern we added a
statement from the U.S. Surgeon General about radon and health.
Two examples of radon
tests following the EPA guidelines (during a 48 hour interval) for real
estate transaction are:
Continuous Radon
Monitor (CRM) has tamper resistant features built in for real estate
transactions.
Passive Radon Test.
This type is not influenced by increased humidity as some other tests
are.
