07 / AboutHow we work

A measurement-first radon company, and nothing else

We do one thing: find out what the radon concentration is in a building, and if it is high, reduce it and prove the reduction. We do not sell air purifiers, waterproofing or general contracting, so there is nothing else we are steering you toward.

01How we work

Three commitments that shape every job

P-01

We measure before we recommend

Nothing is quoted from a description over the phone. A mitigation design follows a site inspection and pressure diagnostics, because two identical-looking houses on the same street can need different systems.

P-02

We say no when the answer is no

Roughly one home in fifteen sits above the action level, which means most of the homes we test need nothing done at all. A large share of the reports we send end with the words 'no action required'.

P-03

The result is the deliverable

A system is not finished when the fan starts. It is finished when a post-mitigation measurement confirms the concentration has fallen, and that measurement is included in the price rather than sold as an add-on.

02Credentials

What is behind the certificate, in plain terms

Radon licensing varies from state to state and some places do not require a license at all, which makes credentials worth reading carefully wherever you are.

Work is led by Brian Gillett from Solomon, Kansas. Certificate numbers are listed plainly so you can verify who is doing the work.

NRPP

NRPP-certified measurement professionals

Brian Gillett is an NRPP Radon Measurement Professional (RMP116198).

NRPP

NRPP-certified mitigation specialists

Brian Gillett is an NRPP Radon Mitigation Specialist (RMS116199).

KDHE

Kansas-certified radon technician

Kansas Department of Health & Environment Radon Mitigation Technician certification KS-MI-0287 Radon Measurement Technician certification KS-MS-0743

MAH-2023

ANSI/AARST MAH-2023

Every measurement in a home follows the national protocol for conducting measurements of radon and radon decay products in homes.

SGM-SF-2023

ANSI/AARST SGM-SF-2023

Every installation follows the soil gas mitigation standard for existing homes, including commissioning and labeling requirements.

MS-QA-2023

ANSI/AARST MS-QA-2023

Instruments are operated under a documented quality assurance program with device calibration, blanks, duplicates and control limits.

03Standards

The documents the work is held to

ANSI/AARST standards are voluntary national consensus standards, developed through an ANSI-accredited process and referenced by federal and state agencies including the EPA and HUD. Each one covers a building type and a task.

Public drinking water and large building work follows ANSI/AARST MW-RN-2020 for radon in water and ANSI/AARST SGM-MFLB-2023 for multifamily, school and commercial buildings. New construction work follows ANSI/AARST CCAH-2020-0523 and the rough-in standard ANSI/AARST RRNC-2020-1022.

04Scope

What we deliberately do not do

Being clear about the edge of the work is part of being trustworthy inside it.

  • We do not install a mitigation system without a measurement that justifies it.
  • We do not treat crack sealing as a mitigation method on its own.
  • We do not present a range as a quote, or a quote as a final price.
  • We do not handle asbestos, mold or water ingress, which are separate trades.
  • We do not use customer contact details for anything other than the inquiry in front of us.

Ask us the awkward question

If something about a radon result, a quote or a system does not add up, say so. We would rather explain it than have you guess.
