Utah has some of the highest residential radon levels in the country — roughly one in three homes tested statewide comes back above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L, and Summit County's geology is no exception. Radon is a radioactive soil gas that seeps through slab cracks, sump pits, and crawl-space soil; it's odorless, invisible, and the second-leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. The fix is well-established: a sub-slab depressurization system — sealed suction point, schedule-40 PVC run, and a continuously running fan that puts the soil under slight vacuum so gas vents above the roofline instead of into your living space. We install most Summit County systems in a single day and verify with a post-install test, guaranteed below 4.0 pCi/L.

Common questions

Radon Mitigation FAQs · Summit County

How much does radon mitigation cost in Summit County?

Most Summit County homes run $1,200–$2,500 installed. The range depends on foundation type (single slab is simplest; slab + crawl space combinations need extra suction points or membrane sealing), how far the vent run is, and whether the fan can hide in a garage attic. Fixed written quote after we look at the foundation.

Should I even test for radon in Summit County?

Yes — Utah's Wasatch-area soils test high consistently, and radon varies house to house even on the same street, so a neighbor's result tells you nothing. Short-term charcoal tests cost around $15 at hardware stores; winter (windows closed) gives the most honest reading. If you're above 4.0 pCi/L, mitigate; between 2.0 and 4.0, the EPA says consider it.

Does a radon system really work?

Sub-slab depressurization is one of the most proven fixes in residential construction — properly installed systems routinely cut levels 80–99%. A Summit County home testing at 12 pCi/L typically lands well under 2.0 after mitigation. We verify with a post-install test rather than assuming.

Do I need radon mitigation when I sell (or buy) a home in Summit County?

Utah doesn't mandate it, but radon results are increasingly part of Summit County real-estate inspections, and a high test with no system is a negotiation problem. A $1,200–$2,500 system is routinely cheaper than the price concession buyers ask for — and if you're the buyer, it's a very reasonable seller ask.

Will the fan be loud or expensive to run?

Modern radon fans draw 40–90 watts — roughly $5–$10/month — and run at a low hum most homeowners stop noticing within a week, especially routed through a garage or exterior chase. Fans carry a 5-year manufacturer warranty and typically last 10+ years; the manometer on the pipe shows at a glance that it's working.
