US Environmental Protection Agency. Breathing Easy: What Home Buyers and Sellers Should Know About Radon. EPA 402-C-03-002. The video satisfies a long-standing need for a short visual educational tool on how to best include radon in residential real estate transactions. With a bit of light humor, the video covers the basics, including radon science, the lung cancer risk, home inspection, building a new home radon-resistant, testing and fixing a home, disclosure, state radon offices, hotline and web resources, and key radon numbers, eg, epa’s action level and the US indoor and outdoor averages. The primary audiences are home buyers and sellers, and real estate sales agents and brokers. Home inspectors, mortgage lenders, other real estate practitioners, and radon services providers will also find the video helpful. Single copies of the video are in VHS, CD, and DVD formats [ask for (EPA 402-V-02-003) (TRT 13.10)]. Producer: Environmental Protection Agency. epa.gov. Creative Commons license: Public Domain.
chessdude67, thank you for your comments!
Well done! Tested our home three weeks ago and had a rating of 11.3 Just had our home mitigation system put in last Friday. It’s now down to ….under 1! Very happy about that.
We paid $925.00. Great company. Check out Angies List! Get it done right or don’t spend the money.
Thank you.
angellovescats, thank you very much for your excellent comments! We wish you well in your new home!
Very good video! I just bought a 12-year-old home that showed a radon level of 7.4! My husband and I discovered this after we paid for a home inspection. The radon test itself cost us $150 extra. We asked for $1,000 off of our final bid or asked the current homeowner to install the mitigation system. We ended up getting $1,000 off. Now, we are moved in and are working toward looking into a mitigation system. The average cost where i live for one is $1,400.
Good video for introduction to radon, a good one to share with all potential home buyers or sellers! pass this on to your neighbors!
