Why must the installer be certified?
Kentucky radon mitigation policy says mitigation measures must be installed by a professional certified for radon mitigation. Public Kentucky housing guidance follows the same rule. General handymen are not the right choice for this work.
How does the installer's certification show up?
A national radon directory identifies Kentucky state licensing and NRPP certification as part of qualified installer credentials. Ask the pro for proof of licence and insurance before work starts. Check that the certification is current.
Is mitigation a common repair cost?
EPA says installing a radon mitigation system in an existing home costs about the same as other common home repairs. That puts it within reach for most homeowners. The final price depends on the home, so compare written quotes.
What to do next
- Test your home first, using a radon test kit or a certified tester, to confirm the radon level before you hire anyone.
- Ask the pro to show proof of Kentucky state licensing and NRPP certification.
- Request written quotes that list the system type, installation cost, and warranty terms from the pro.
- Ask the pro for proof of insurance before signing an agreement or paying a deposit.
