If you live in Maine, you've probably heard about radon. Radon air and radon water in Maine homes are typically above the EPA-approved limit. Even with a mitigation system, these radon levels can sometimes still exceed the approved limit. ➡️ So what can you do as a property owner? ✅ Retest for radon in air and water every 3-4 years. This will ensure your mitigation system is working properly & levels are within EPA-approved limits! Follow @elevatemaine for more Maine real estate tips like this.🖤
