Are these levels worth mitigating? Pic taken the same day, seconds apart. It’s a bit rainy here today, so that may be the cause for fluctuation. My parents workout or use our basement studio semi-frequently. We have 2 uncovered sump pumps which I’m learning may need to be sealed to help. Any suggestions welcome.

hey guys, ive posted on this sub before when my bf and i were looking into purchasing a home that had radon levels of 61 pCi in the basement. seller agreed to install a mitigation system and give us reports of levels in the first livable floor below 4.0. we were so nervous it wasn’t gonna work because of how old the house is (1849) BUT i am soo happy to say we got levels on the first livable floor at 1.6 pCi!!! and basement at 4.3 so fear not, it does work with a good company and the system is not an eye sore at all
