Radon testing is really about as accurate as spinning a wheel of fortune.
Seal the basement and no worries. The worst cases are in the "air-tight"
homes with exchangers.... poor air quality and higher Radon levels. I live
in a high Radon Gas area as well. The meter didn't even register it in my
basement.
by seal you mean the outside walls? during construction? do you know of any
seal that can be done on the inside basement wall post-construction? From
what I've heard, the recommended levels will probably change in the future,
as the current limit of 4 pc's was extrapolated from data gathered on
uranium miners.


Malfunctioning Septic Systems are a bad thing though... since you have to
recertify to the latest standards and often it requires a major field and
tank overhaul / replacement.
yeah, there was some coliform in the well water I forgot to mention.
Probably due to the s.sys. but who knows. there are lots of farms around,
could be from manure fertilizer.
