Builders can build radon-resistant new homes and buildings through partnerships with Radon Mitigation Companies. It is a simple way for builders and contractors to provide a public health service — helping to reduce buyers’ risk of lung cancer from exposure to dangerous levels of indoor radon.

Using straightforward techniques, builders can support constructing new homes that are resistant to radon entry.

Radon-resistant features can be an important selling point for health-conscious home-buyers. Many builders routinely include these features in some of their homes. The cost to the builder to include these features is typically less than the cost to mitigate the home after construction.

Radon Resistant New Construction (RRNC), an integral part of the green building movement, is part of or included in three labeling programs:

• EPA’s Indoor airPLUS Website
• U.S. Green Building Council LEED for Homes Rating System EXIT
• National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) EXIT

In addition to this, builders that use a qualified radon company offer additional warranty transfer of liability to the radon company and most of all a performance guarantee that ensures the system is done correctly and minimizes deadly radon gas into the home or business.

Radon Be Gone has significant experience with RRNC mitigation efforts, from residential homes to large apt buildings and rest homes.
