Radon testing in Amos: what matters here

During long winters, windows stay shut and the house draws more air from the soil. That's exactly the ideal time for a long-term test.

With heating seasons this long, thermography is a worthwhile investment in Amos. It shows precisely where heat escapes and helps prioritize work.

Radon testing: what the inspector checks in Amos

The most common mitigation method is sub-slab depressurization: a pipe and fan draw the gas from under the slab and vent it outside. Done properly, it greatly reduces the concentration.

In Amos, the inspector uses thermography to pinpoint heat loss and target the most cost-effective work. They also check for attic condensation.
