Can anything be done to reduce the hazard associated with radon?
Yes, definitely. Often the solution is simple and inexpensive. However, the best solution depends on the size and nature of the radon risk. For example, suppose you find that your basement bedroom has high radon. A possible simple solution might be to avoid spending long stretches of time in that room by moving your bedroom to a lower radon room upstairs, if that option exists. Other situations may require other mitigation solutions. The “standard” active mitigation system, that usually involves soil depressurization, costs about $500 to $2000 installed.
