Newtown, CT's Expert Radon Testing & Radon Mitigation Company
Experienced radon testing & radon mitigation contractor in Newtown
Does your home or property have high radon levels? If levels are above 4 pCi/L (picocuries per liter), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends installing a radon reduction system. As a tasteless, odorless, and invisible gas, radon can only be identified through testing. So if you're not sure about your property, Apex Radon Solutions is the trusted radon mitigation company that can help you answer this question!

Indoor air quality services: air purifiers, dehumidifiers, air duct cleaning & more
While radon is scary all on its own, it isn't the only air pollutant that home and property owners should be aware of. Pollen, pet dander, mold spores, dust buildup, and contaminants trapped inside your HVAC system can cause just as many health issues. And the risk is even higher for those with asthma, respiratory issues, or allergies. That's why Apex Radon Solutions offers quality indoor air quality products and services, including professional air duct cleaning to help remove dust, debris, and allergens from your ductwork and improve airflow throughout your home.

In this Newtown home, built in the 1970s, elevated radon levels led to a thoughtful discussion between the installer and homeowners, Todd and Melinda. Rather than jumping into a multi-system setup, both parties agreed to install a single-pipe mitigation system first, and monitor the results using a CRM or passive test kit. If the levels remain above 2.0 pCi/L, a second system will be installed without delay. This agreement was clearly communicated and documented to ensure alignment between both the service provider and the client.
The install itself was straightforward but executed with precision. The system was routed internally with minimal disruption to the home structure. The radon fan, piping, and exhaust layout were positioned based on airflow mapping and best practices. The job did not require extra sump pump sealing or encapsulation. The installer made sure to place a test kit before leaving the site and ensured the homeowners were comfortable monitoring and returning results. Overall, this job is a prime example of responsive radon mitigation built around both trust and measurable results.
For this Newtown home built in 1977, a radon reading of 10.5 pCi/L demanded a robust mitigation strategy. The property had one foundation, and we installed a three-pipe system through the cement foundation to ensure maximum airflow extraction.
Although the sump pump was unsealed during inspection, we professionally sealed the pump to reinforce system integrity. No encapsulation or extra piping was needed. The home also included an XxP SaniDry system — which complements the radon solution by helping manage moisture.
No special requests or complications were noted by the client. The result was a high-capacity, low-visibility mitigation system that protects the home without disrupting its structure.
When a teacher in Newtown purchased a home only to discover high radon levels, she was ready to take immediate action to ensure the safety of her living space. Our task was to design and implement a radon mitigation system that would effectively reduce radon levels to a safe range. Throughout the project, we maintained open communication, ensuring that she was informed and comfortable with each step of the process, mirroring the educational values she cherishes in her own profession.
Tasked with mitigating high radon levels in a 1959 ranch-style home recently put up for estate sale, our team faced unique challenges. Both the previous owners had passed away, leaving the home to their family. A critical part of the installation involved coordinating with the sister of the deceased to move a piece of furniture that was blocking access to an essential work area. With the door code 1680 providing entry, our team installed a robust radon mitigation system with dual extraction points and upgraded sump pump seals, significantly reducing the radon levels and ensuring the home’s safety for future residents.
