Just had the house we are buying in OH inspected. Radon test came up at 5.7 pCi/l. EPA recommends mitigation if its above 4.0 pCi/l. My research seems to indicate that this is pretty easily solved for $800-$1200.
Questions.
A) Are the prices I'm seeing online accurate? If I ask the seller for $1500, will that my cover my costs?
B) Do you think installing Radon mitigation equipement is a big negative when we go to sell the house? Would I be better off installing my own ventilation system that is not a 'Radon' system, just to avoid scaring off future buyers?
C) Is the EPA full of schit, and should I just ignore it. (Of course, after getting my $1500 off the price of the house
)
Thank you.
