Protect Your Moscow Home

This small borough in Lackawanna County faces elevated radon levels due to its unique position on the edge of the Pocono Plateau, where ancient geological forces created uranium-rich bedrock formations that continue to release radon gas today.
The area's Catskill and Pocono formations contain naturally occurring uranium deposits that formed over 350 million years ago during the Devonian period. As uranium-238 slowly decays over millennia, it produces radium-226, which further decays into radon-222 gas. This invisible, odorless, radioactive gas migrates upward through fractured bedrock and glacial till - sediment deposited during the last ice age - creating multiple pathways for radon to enter Moscow homes through foundation cracks, sump pumps, utility penetrations, and gaps around basement windows.
Moscow's position near Lake Lorain and surrounding rural areas compounds the risk. The borough sits at approximately 1,600 feet elevation on glacially-scoured terrain where bedrock lies close to the surface. The area's varied topography creates pockets where radon concentrations can spike dramatically. Properties built on bedrock outcrops or areas with shallow soil depth over fractured rock face particularly high radon levels, often measuring 2-3 times the EPA action level.
Unlike the anthracite coal mining regions in nearby Luzerne County, Moscow's radon challenge stems primarily from natural geological processes rather than mining disruption. However, this makes the risk no less severe - the direct contact with uranium-bearing bedrock creates consistent radon emission that affects both older homes and new construction throughout the Moscow area.
Professional making certified radon mitigation systems essential for protecting your family's health in this EPA Zone 1 area.

Moscow homes often test between 4-15 pCi/L due to local geology. The EPA action level is 4.0 pCi/L. About 45% of Lackawanna County homes test above this level, making professional testing essential.
Moscow sits in Lackawanna County with uranium-bearing rock formations from the Catskill and Pocono formations. The area's glacial till and fractured bedrock create pathways for radon gas migration from deep uranium deposits. EPA Zone 1 classification indicates highest risk in Pennsylvania.
Radon mitigation systems in Moscow typically cost between $1,500 and $2,500, depending on home size and foundation type. This includes professional installation, system warranty, and post-installation testing.
Yes! Radon levels can vary significantly even between adjacent homes in Moscow. Factors like foundation type, soil conditions, and home ventilation all affect radon concentrations. The only way to know your home's radon level is through professional testing.
Yes! High radon levels don't prevent a home sale in Moscow. Pennsylvania law requires radon disclosure during real estate transactions. Most buyers proceed with the sale after a mitigation system is installed. We offer fast-track installation for real estate transactions, often completing systems within 48 hours to keep closings on schedule. Having a professionally installed mitigation system can actually be a selling point, showing buyers the home is protected.
We understand real estate timelines are tight! For home inspection situations in Moscow, we offer emergency same-day testing deployment and can typically install mitigation systems within 2-3 business days.
