I'm in the hills of LA and we had pretty high radon readings when we moved in, so we got a couple of these fans installed.
I tried to tell my neighbors about it and they weren't interested. Same with real estate agents here. Everyone in the LA hills has got their heads in the sand.
- abracadaniel 4y agoBoth my realtor and home builder told me it was mostly fake and just a scam by the government. My middle school science teacher died from cancer as a result of radon in his wine cellar. He explained to the class how radon worked, and how his measurement was so high he would almost certainly die from it. He died about 3 years later. People are still skeptical when I tell them this about him. Rip Mr. Stitt
- bcrosby95 4y agoTo be fair, California has cool nights and in LA you're likely opening all your windows in the summer/spring/fall evenings to cool off your house. Rainy weeks are the worst for radon in our house because we keep everything closed 24/7. It reaches around 6. But our yearly average is more like 1.9. It's probably still high enough that I'll do something about it eventually, but it's not high on my priority list.

- bcrosby95 4y agoWow yeah, that's pretty high. Hah.
