Proudly Serving the Gunnison Area
Nestled in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, Gunnison is known for its breathtaking landscapes and year-round outdoor activities. With the Gunnison River winding through the valley, and nearby Blue Mesa Reservoir offering boating and fishing opportunities, Gunnison attracts both tourists and residents with its stunning natural beauty. This vibrant mountain town is home to Western Colorado University and boasts a rich history, evident in its charming downtown district. However, the rugged terrain of Gunnison County also means that radon levels can be higher than the national average, making regular radon testing and mitigation vital for local homes and businesses.
According to the EPA, half of all homes found in Colorado have high radon levels, with the average reported levels in Gunnison being 6.2 pCi/L. Residents and commercial property owners should be proactive in managing radon exposure. Contact us at (970) 585-5029 to learn about our residential and commercial radon services.

Radon is an odorless, invisible gas that results from the natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water. In Gunnison, radon levels can vary widely depending on the building’s location and the surrounding geological factors.

Testing your property is the only way to determine if radon levels exceed the EPA’s recommended safety limit.

A Guide to Radon Mitigation Compliance Testing
While installing a radon mitigation system is an essential step in reducing radon levels, it is equally crucial to verify that the system is working as intended. This is where radon mitigation compliance testing comes in, ensuring that the mitigation system adheres to established safety standards and effectively reduces indoor radon levels.
The Importance of Radon Testing for Homebuyers
Radon is a significant concern in real estate transactions, yet it often doesn’t receive the attention it deserves. This naturally occurring radioactive gas, which seeps into homes from the ground, poses a serious health risk, particularly in enclosed spaces. For both buyers and sellers, understanding radon and addressing it during the home buying or selling process is crucial to ensuring safety and peace of mind.
Understanding Pressure Field Extension (PFE) Testing
When it comes to the safety of your home or business, few features are as critical as a reliable radon mitigation system. However, the amount of suction required for optimal mitigation can vary depending on a number of factors such as design and size. To help determine the proper level of suction and measure the effectiveness of a mitigation system, we perform what is known as Pressure Field Extension testing.
