Dan’s Story
Why Radon Busters is Passionate About Radon Mitigation
My name is Dan (the owner of Radon Busters), and I’m passionate about radon mitigation because I’ve witnessed its devastating effect firsthand.
I had worked my whole life as an electrician with a healthy salary, and then something happened that changed my career path forever. In February of 2018, the mother of my childhood friend, who lived across the street from me as I grew up, tragically died from lung cancer very soon after retirement. The news came as a shock to everyone. She was healthy, barely into her sixties, and most of all, she never smoked. So how did this happen? Later her house was tested for Radon, and we discovered it was tested at 28 picocuries, nine times the EPA-mandated mitigation level of 4 or less! This astronomically high number capable of doing fatal damage to the human body.
When I heard about the test results, this sparked a whole host of questions for me. How was it possible for a deadly agent to linger in a house for so long and go completely undetected? How many other houses were like hers, filled with this invisible poison that has the potential to lead to tragedy? And most importantly, how many lives could be saved if the general public was simply made aware of Radon and took the simple step of testing their home? These questions led me to change my whole career path and my mission. Now my mission is to educate people on the life-threatening hazards of Radon and encourage them to test their homes to see if they are living in a radioactive danger zone. The good news is that for private homeowners you can get this test for free, and you can know what your radon levels are in as little as 72 hours. There’s absolutely no reason to put off at least testing your home. It’s your life and the lives of your family, after all.
Radon in Our Homes: Learn More About Radon
In his TEDx talk, Dr. Aaron Goodarzi, a radiation biologist at the University of Calgary, discusses the significant health risks posed by radon gas in homes. He explains that radon, a colorless and odorless radioactive gas, can infiltrate homes through basements and foundations, leading to increased lung cancer risk. Dr. Goodarzi emphasizes the importance of testing homes for radon and implementing mitigation strategies to reduce exposure.

The EPA recommends a radon level of 2 picocuries or less, but there is no safe level of Radon.
The mandatory level for a home sale is 4 picocuries or less.

Dan did a great job, was easy to work with and easy to communicate with. Great job on cleaning up and super professionally done. Also super impressed on how he made sure the radon levels were wear they needed to be after installation. You can tell he cares deeply about Radon prevention. Would definitely recommend.
KEVIN MUELLER
HOME owner
Dan is extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy, and professional. He installed our radon system in approx 4-4.5 hours. The install we chose was internal and went thru the roof vs on the outside. Everything was meticulously installed and sealed- even the pipe on the roof blends in because he painted it! Radon Busters (Dan), is the best of the best!
