Radon inspections are an important part of ensuring a safe and healthy living environment, especially for rental properties. Radon is a naturally occurring, odorless, and invisible gas that can enter homes through the foundation and build up to dangerous levels over time. Because long-term exposure is linked to serious health risks, including lung cancer, testing is highly recommended for both homeowners and landlords.

At Commonwealth Code Solutions (C.S.S.), we conduct radon testing in accordance with industry best practices by placing certified monitoring devices in the lowest livable level of the home, typically the basement or first floor of a rental unit. These devices remain in place for a specified testing period to accurately measure radon levels under normal living conditions. During this time, we ensure proper placement, minimal disturbance, and adherence to testing protocols to ensure reliable results.

Once the testing period is complete, we retrieve the devices and provide a detailed report outlining radon levels and whether mitigation is recommended. For residential landlords, this process not only helps ensure tenant safety but also demonstrates due diligence in maintaining a healthy rental property. If elevated levels are detected, we also help guide landlords on next steps and mitigation options to reduce exposure and bring the property into a safer range.
