Aspen Radon: Radon Testing & Mitigation Specialists

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that needs careful monitoring. We measure radon by detecting the radiation it gives off when it breaks down. This is done using precise instruments that “see” and count these decays. The measurement unit is picocuries per liter of air (pCi/L). According to the U.S. EPA and the Colorado Department of Health, radon levels should be reduced if they exceed 4.0 pCi/L, and even levels between 2.0 and 4.0 pCi/L should be addressed for safety.

Certified Radon Testing & Mitigation You Can Trust

At Aspen Radon, we are NEHA-certified experts in radon testing and mitigation. We offer reliable testing for homes, schools, and commercial buildings across Southern Colorado.

Radon Testing for Your Home

We offer easy and non-intrusive two-day radon testing to find out if your home has high radon levels. Our process includes:

  • Setting up a testing device in the right spot.

  • Having an independent lab analyze the results.

  • Providing a detailed and clear report.

To save you money, we can set up the device and guide you on how to send it to the lab, so you don’t have to pay for a second visit.

Commercial Radon Testing

We also conduct thorough radon measurement surveys for commercial spaces, like offices, apartment buildings, and retail stores. Our reports are easy to understand, covering your results, our methods, and all quality checks. This makes sure everyone involved knows the results are accurate.

School Radon Testing

Aspen Radon provides professional radon testing for both public and private schools in Southern Colorado. We follow strict EPA guidelines and the state’s regulations to ensure your school environment is safe.

TESTing in schools

 The Colorado Department of Health requires all schools in Colorado to be tested for radon and that the survey be conducted in compliance with the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Radon Measurement in Schools-Revised Edition (EPA 402-R-92-014). The results of these surveys are then to be kept on file at each school and available for review.

Aspen Radon has conducted numerous radon measurement surveys in Colorado Schools. Our measurement surveys in schools not only meet but exceed the EPA’s Radon Measurement in Schools protocols required by the Colorado Department of Health. In short, the quality and accuracy of our survey is unsurpassed by any radon tester in Colorado.

Aspen Radon has reviewed many school district reports from previous radon surveys only to find that the surveys were improperly conducted, and/or did not meet the EPA’s protocols, thus also not meeting Colorado Department of Health regulations. These inadequate surveys are not only a waste of money for the school district but could also put children and teachers at risk by being exposed to unknown levels of radon. Also, if the radon survey is not performed properly it could cost the school district an unnecessarily amount of money.

The radon measurement survey report for a school is extremely important. Aspen Radon provides the district office a report for each building tested. These reports enable each school to have the capability to maintain on file a comprehensive report of the measurement survey conducted within their buildings. Each report will include the results of both the actual room measurements and the devices and methods used for the Quality Control and Quality Assurance. The report will clearly express how the survey was conducted in compliance with the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Radon Measurement in Schools-Revised Edition (EPA 402-R-92-014) and in adherence to the rules and regulations governing schools in the state of Colorado.

Call us for a free evaluation of your school’s previous radon measurement survey report or an estimate for a professional comprehensive survey for your school or district.

commercial structures

 We can conduct a complete radon measurement survey in any building where you may need radon levels determined. Radon levels can be measured for apartments, office buildings, stores or any type of structure. Aspen Radon provides a thorough yet easy to read report. Our reports not only supply the results but explain the testing methodology and the quality assurance measures that were taken so that all parties concerned can understand the validity of the survey’s results.

If the building is found to have elevated radon levels Aspen Radon can discuss options that may be available for mitigation to reduce the radon levels. Our experience may be able to save money in performing mitigation procedures other than installing typical radon mitigation systems. This could save the owner a considerable amount of money as well as maintain the aesthetics of the building.
