Radon Testing and Inspections by a Certified Master Incpector |
|
Hi, I am Jim owner of Maryland Home Inspection Services. I am a Board Certified Master Inspector and Instructor. I am also an actual Certified Radon Gas Specialist and Not just some "tester guy" and trust me their is a Big Difference. All of our Maryland Radon Testing Inspectors are certified in Radon Gas Inspections and Testing. We will help ensure that your home is safe from this dangerous, cancer causing Radon Gas.
"Conflict of Interest" "Radon Gas Testing and Radon Gas Mitigation (abatement)" As a consumer you really need to be aware of the potential conflict of interest that exists between these two separate businesses and don’t allow yourself to get ripped off. There are many companies that their main business is the Remediation of Radon Gas Testing and really are not interested in testing first to see if you really have Radon Gas and the extent of it. Their main objective is to get you to agree to a Mitigation (abatement) job which is typically very expensive and in many cases not even needed. Prior to any Mitigation or abatement services ever take place; a professional Radon test needs to be performed by a qualified and Certified Indoor Air Consultant and by all means never by anyone who does the testing and mitigation. Don't be fooled by anyone that offers you a free or a "too good to be true" price on a Radon Test. Radon is a serious health concern and needs to be treated as such. Be sure to have your Radon Testing performed by a Certified Air Quality Specialist and not just a "tester guy" and never anyone who claims to test and mitigate as ell. There are so many horror stories of consumers getting ripped off because they got talked into jumping right into an expensive Mitigation (abatement) system before having an unbiased Professional/certified Radon Gas Test performed by a relatively inexpensive actual Certified Radon Gas Tester. By doing this first you can potentially save yourself from falling prey to a scam and get taken for your hard earned money. What is Radon Gas? A radon test is a simple, non-invasive test that can be conducted in as little as 48
to 96 hours to determine if radon gas is present. The inspector will need access to the home to initially place the measurement
devices, and to retrieve the devices upon completion of the test. A
detailed analysis is performed by a certified lab and results are provided
to you generally within 2 days of submission for analysis. Not all inspectors are
equal or even certified to perform a radon measurement inspection.
Certification is not required in the state of Maryland, however, to set
us apart from others Maryland Home Inspection Services has chosen to be
100% certified and recognized by the International Association of Certified Indoor Air Consultants (IAC2). Certification # IAC2-02-0919.
All of our Radon Gas testing equipment and Laboratory Analysis comes
from the professional side of Radon.com Home Buyer's and Seller's Guide to Radon The cost of radon testing Radon testing is about $185.00 depending on the size and configuration of the house
to be tested. Please ask us about our radon testing services and
give yourself peace of mind. The big issue about radon is that it is a gas when we inhale it, but if it decays into solids while it is in our lungs, those solids stay in our lungs for the rest of the decay cycle, emitting alpha, beta and gamma particles.
