Versailles, KY: what's different here
Versailles, KY sits about 13 miles and roughly 19 minutes from Lexington via US-60 W (Versailles Road). Like the rest of Kentucky, its radon risk on state maps is based on bedrock type rather than measured home values. The Kentucky Geological Survey says actual in-home radon levels can be higher or lower than those maps suggest and may vary by season. That makes a radon monitor installation in your Versailles home the only way to know your real levels.
Why does radon monitor installation in Versailles require testing first?
Kentucky's radon map is based on bedrock type, not measured home values, so it is only a general guide. The Kentucky Geological Survey notes actual in-home radon levels may be higher or lower than the map suggests and can vary by season. A radon monitor installed in your Versailles home gives readings for your specific house.
How much does a radon mitigation system cost near Versailles?
Radon mitigation systems average between $1,200 and $3,000 in the Lexington area. If your monitor shows high levels and a fan-based system is installed, expect added energy costs. An active radon fan draws 100 to 300 watts continuously, adding roughly $30 to $300 per year to your energy bill.
How do I verify a radon contractor's Kentucky certification?
Kentucky requires contractors performing radon-related services to be licensed by the state. You can verify radon professionals through the state radon office at radon.ky.gov or by calling 502-782-2782. Always ask the pro for proof of licence and insurance before work begins.
