How It Works

From the first call to done

Bill plans the system for your home and personally stops by during installation, while our crew handles the work. He isn't on-site the entire time. Most jobs are finished in one visit.

“Bill and Jose were fantastic from start to finish. They explained the process clearly and answered all my questions. The installation was quick, efficient, and mess-free—I barely noticed they were there! I highly recommend their radon mitigation services for anyone looking for professional and hassle-free work.”

“Top notch job. Bill and his crew installed a 2 suction point system, 1 point in the basement and 1 in the crawlspace addition. Along with the suction points, they laid down a vapor barrier in the crawl space, a new sump pump cover and caulked any cracks in the basement floor that were exposed. Bill and his crew were neat with thier work and had no issues answering and questions or concerns I had. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs a radon system install.”

“I bought a house that had a Radon system installed in it by Bill from a previous owner. I was having an issue with the sump pump that was attached to the system and called Bill to confirm what I needed to be aware of with the radon system. Bill talked me through the system on a Sunday and helped me think of issues that could be what is wrong with the sump pump. Ended up being able to get the pump working again and Bill was super helpful.”

Common Questions

Questions homeowners ask us

Don’t see yours? Call or text Bill. That number is his cell.

Does American Radon Systems test for radon?
We have links to free and $8 radon test kits, based on which county you live in. Cook County mails suburban residents a free kit, and Will County sells one for $8 at its offices. If you want to watch your level year-round, we recommend a reusable radon detector you keep. Text Bill your result and he will tell you what it means and what fixing it would take, at no charge. The kit does the measuring, not the person who would sell you the fix. Buying or selling? A sale usually needs a licensed professional test, and we will point you to one.
What is a radon mitigation system and how does it work?
Most homes use sub-slab depressurization: a fan and pipe pull soil gas from under the foundation and vent it outside above the roofline. A U-tube manometer on the pipe shows the fan is creating suction. The exact layout depends on basements, crawl spaces, slabs, sumps, and finished spaces. Bill designs for the home you have, not a one-size layout.
How long does a typical radon mitigation install take?
Most residential installs are completed in a single visit, often a few hours once the plan is set. Bill looks at the home first so materials and routing are right. Real estate closings get scheduled around the calendar when you tell us the date early.
How much does radon mitigation cost?
Passive system activation starts at $900. A full new system runs $1,950 to $2,450 for most homes. A few homes need much more, up to $4,000 to $6,500 for a gravel crawlspace that has to be sealed or a home with more than one foundation type. Fan replacement on an existing system is $575. Bill looks at the home first, then gives you the price before work starts, and that number does not change unless you change the job. See our cost page for what moves the number.
What is your warranty?
If a fan we installed fails during its first five years, the visit, labor, and replacement fan are covered.Read the customer-care warranty details.
My radon fan is noisy. What does that mean?
A fan that becomes noticeably louder, rattles, grinds, hums, or sends vibration through the wall may be wearing out or may have another system issue that should be checked. We can usually come out within a day or two, including systems another company installed. There is no trip charge. A fan replacement is $575, including the fan, the visit, the labor, and a new five-year fan warranty, and Bill confirms that before the visit. If the failed fan is one we installed and it is within the five-year warranty, the service visit, labor and replacement fan are included at no cost. Call or text Bill’s cell at (815) 370-9682 with a clear photo of the fan and manometer.
Is (815) 370-9682 Bill’s cell phone?
Yes. That is Bill’s cell. Call, text, or send a photo of your fan, manometer, or test result. It is not a call center.
Are you state licensed in Illinois?
Yes. American Radon Systems holds Illinois radon mitigation license RNM2018212. Anyone hired to perform radon mitigation in Illinois must be appropriately state licensed. Illinois exempts a person doing measurement or mitigation in the dwelling where that person resides. Measurement and mitigation are separate license categories in Illinois; American Radon Systems holds the mitigation license and helps you get tested with free or $8 county kits.
What areas do you serve?
American Radon Systems serves a focused area across Chicago's south and southwest suburbs, including Tinley Park, Frankfort, Mokena, New Lenox, Manhattan, Orland Park, Orland Hills, Palos Park, Palos Heights, Oak Forest, Lemont, Homer Glen, Lockport, Crest Hill, and Shorewood.See all towns
