Radon Testing
Professional Radon Testing Services in Brooklyn & NYC
Is Your Home Safe From This Invisible Gas?
Radon is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless radioactive gas that occurs naturally in the soil. It can seep into homes and buildings through foundation cracks, construction joints, and gaps around service pipes. According to the EPA, radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, making testing a critical step for any property owner.
At Afederal Home & Building Inspections, we provide certified radon testing for residential and commercial properties, ensuring the air you breathe is safe for your family or employees.
Why Radon Testing is Essential in New York
While many believe radon is only a concern for rural areas, NYC properties—especially those with basements or garden-level units—are not immune. Here is why you should test:
- Health Protection: Long-term exposure to high radon levels is a significant health risk that can only be detected through professional testing.
- Real Estate Transactions: Most modern mortgage lenders and savvy buyers require a radon test as a contingency for closing.
- Peace of Mind: Our precise equipment measures radon levels over a specific period to provide an accurate average of your indoor air quality.
Our Professional Testing Process
We use industry-standard, continuous radon monitors (CRM) that provide more accurate data than “do-it-yourself” charcoal canisters. Our process includes:
- Strategic Placement: We place monitors in the lowest livable level of the building where radon concentrations are typically highest.
- Tamper-Resistant Monitoring: Our professional devices detect if the unit has been moved or if windows have been opened, ensuring the integrity of the results.
- Detailed Reporting: You receive an easy-to-read report showing hour-by-hour fluctuations and a final average reading compared against EPA action levels.
Don’t Breathe in the Unknown.
If high levels are detected, don’t panic—radon issues can be mitigated. But you cannot fix what you haven’t measured. Let our “in-depth” experts provide the clarity you need.
Your safety is our priority. Schedule your Radon test today.
