Off topic but thought maybe someone here might know.
Bought my house in 2011... old home built in 60’s first owners lived here for 35 years second owner 10 plus...
It’s a very drafty home so I never thought it might be an issue but I decided to get a radon test. They say levels over 4 are harmful. My basement was 67...
So I freaked out... called severa companies to remedy this. They all told me to relax and said they have seen levels in the 600-800 range. All the people still alive.
So I did research and the original owners of the house lived to be 82 and 87... the son is now 55. My question is.... how? The epa chart says with a level of 60 Is equivalent to smoking 6 packs of cigarettes a day.
What do you guys think ? Is radon over blown ? I am getting it fixed but researching it raises my curiosity
