Radon Mitigation Costs

One of the first questions Utah homeowners ask after a high radon test result is how much it will cost to fix. The honest answer depends on your home’s foundation type, size, and radon levels. For most homeowners, however, radon mitigation systems in Utah cost between $800 and $2,500.

This page breaks down exactly what drives the price, what a professional installation includes, and why the cheapest option is not always the best value. Contact us today.

Average Radon Mitigation Cost in Utah

In Utah, standard sub-slab radon mitigation systems are often quoted around $1,800–$2,300. Price depends on foundation type (slab, basement, crawlspace), home size/complexity, number of suction points, and aesthetics (concealing pipes). If the home has a dirt crawl space, there will be additional costs depending upon the crawl space size.

Foundation Type and Accessibility

Foundation type is one of the biggest cost drivers in any radon mitigation installation. For instance, block foundations, multiple foundation types, or finished basements with limited slab access all require more labor and raise the overall cost. Similarly, tight crawl spaces and utility obstructions add to that labor time.

Number of Suction Points

Each suction point requires a separate pipe penetration through the slab or foundation. In many cases, homes where radon enters from multiple locations need two or more suction points to achieve adequate pressure field extension beneath the slab. As a result, each additional suction point adds to the overall cost.

Fan Type and Size

The radon fan drives the performance of the entire system. Certified technicians select fans based on sub-slab conditions, home size, and the radon levels they need to address. Higher-capacity fans cost more; however, they are necessary when sub-slab communication is poor or levels are very high. All fans that Radon Be Gone installs carry a 5-year warranty.

Interior vs. Exterior Routing

Pipe routing affects both the cost and the appearance of the finished system. Interior routing runs the pipe through the home before exiting through the roof, which keeps it less visible from outside. Exterior routing, on the other hand, runs along the outside of the home. This option is faster to install but more visible from the street.

Home Size

Larger homes with more square footage and complex floor plans often need longer pipe runs and additional fittings. In some cases, certain layouts require multiple systems to address different sections of the foundation. Consequently, the more ground a system covers, the more labor and materials the job requires.

Radon Levels

Radon readings above 10 pCi/L or 20 pCi/L sometimes call for a more aggressive system design to bring levels down to the guaranteed threshold. For example, this can mean additional suction points, more than normal piping, or both working together. In short, higher starting levels generally require a more robust setup.

What Is Included in a Radon Be Gone Installation

A Radon Be Gone quote covers everything needed for a complete, NRPP Standards -compliant installation. Specifically, here is what every job includes:

Pre-installation Assessment

Before any work begins, a certified technician evaluates your foundation type, sub-slab conditions, existing construction, and radon entry points. This assessment determines the right system design for your specific home.

All Materials

PVC pipe, fittings, fan unit, electrical plug ins, roof or wall penetration, and sealant are all included in the quote. Therefore, there are no hidden material costs to worry about.

Installation Labor

Our NRPP and AARST certified technicians complete most installations in a single day. From start to finish, Utah's most certified radon team handles the entire job.

Post-installation Testing

After the system activates, a CRM or Charcoal Kit is left to measure radon levels to confirm they have dropped to the guaranteed threshold. Importantly, this is not an optional add-on — it is part of every installation.

Lifetime Transferable Warranty

Every Radon Be Gone system comes with a lifetime transferable warranty covering the system for the life of the home. Moreover, if you sell, the warranty transfers to the new owner at no additional cost. A 5-year fan warranty and a 5-year no-leak guarantee on roof jacks are also included.

Is Radon Mitigation Worth the Cost?

Short answer: yes, by a significant margin.

The Health Case for Mitigation

The EPA estimates that radon causes approximately 21,000 lung cancer deaths in the United States each year, making it the second leading cause of lung cancer overall and the leading cause among non-smokers. Furthermore, the National Cancer Institute notes that the risk increases with both the concentration and duration of exposure. In other words, the longer a high-radon problem goes unaddressed, the greater the cumulative health risk to everyone in the home.

The Financial Case for Mitigation

Against that backdrop, a one-time cost of $1800 to $2,300 (added costs if home has a dirt crawl space, etc.) backed by a lifetime warranty represents strong value. For comparison, treating lung cancer in the United States costs tens of thousands of dollars per year. Moreover, the American Cancer Society notes that radon-related lung cancer is almost entirely preventable with proper testing and mitigation.

The Home Value Case for Mitigation

Beyond health, radon mitigation adds measurable value to your property. A mitigated home with a transferable warranty attracts more buyers, reduces the chance of radon-related renegotiations during a sale, and demonstrates proactive home maintenance. Therefore, for homeowners planning to sell within the next few years, mitigating now avoids the pressure of addressing it during a transaction.

Radon Test Kit Cost in Utah

Before scheduling mitigation, you need a confirmed radon reading. Fortunately, testing costs vary by method, and most options are affordable.

Short-termTesting

The most affordable option. Typically priced between $15 and $50 for a NRPP certified radon kit. Place it in your home for 48 hrs, then mail it to a certified lab. Results return within a few business days. Certified radon kits can be purchased on this website.

Professional Continuous Radon Monitor (CRM)

A more accurate option that records radon levels hourly over time. Consumer-grade devices cost $100 to $250 to buy, while professional-grade models run $800 to $1,500+. Most homeowners instead hire a professional to place and monitor a CRM, typically $125 to $250 per test. Contact us today for more information on CRM tests and costs.
