Meet OSHA and HUD standards and protect your employees from harmful radon.
As a commercial property owner, facility manager or multifamily property manager, you are responsible for the safety of people in your building. Radon exposure threatens that safety. This gas seeps into commercial spaces, rising to dangerous levels without intervention. Failing to address these risks has far-reaching consequences.
SWAT Environmental is a trusted name in commercial radon mitigation. Since 1988, we’ve helped to protect people and properties across the country with proven solutions.

The Importance of Commercial Radon Mitigation
Taking a proactive approach to radon mitigation can help to address the following in multifamily apartment communities and commercial housing properties:
- Reduce cancer risk: Radon is a Class A carcinogen and the leading cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers. If tenants get sick from failure to address high radon levels, property owners may face compensation claims, lawsuits and regulatory fines. Installing a commercial radon mitigation system lowers cancer risks.
- Meet funded property expectations: HUD, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac-funded multifamily properties are subject to radon policies. When testing reveals radon levels of 4.0 pCi/L or higher, professional radon mitigation becomes necessary. Failure to comply with these requirements can lead to funding denial, deal delays or legal liability.
- Address safety concerns: Elevated radon levels can create safety concerns for residents, tenants, property managers, lenders and other stakeholders. Mitigation reassures all parties that the property owner or manager commits to creating a safer environment.
- Ensure compliance: Property managers have a responsibility to meet local radon testing, disclosure and mitigation regulations. Violations can have severe consequences. Neglecting to mitigate high radon levels risks financial penalties, loss of license and costly lawsuits.
- Preserve property value: Commercial real estate transactions often include radon testing. Mitigation protects the asset’s marketability, prevents legal liabilities and helps to retain tenants.

Commercial Radon Testing Support
Since radon is invisible and odorless, testing is the only way to know there’s a threat of exposure in your building. We can help to facilitate commercial radon testing for your company.
You have a few options, including hiring a qualified radon tester to perform measurements or buying a DIY test from a hardware store. SWAT Environmental offers free radon testing kits with analysis by an independent laboratory. If radon levels show 4.0 pCi/L or higher, call us for mitigation.
Commercial Radon Mitigation System Design and Installation
Our team will design a system tailored to your property’s configuration, age and the source of radon exposure. We typically recommend active soil depressurization (ASD) for commercial radon abatement. This method equalizes the pressure between the outside soil and the indoor air, drawing radon out from under your building.
Contact us for assistance if you own or manage the following:
- Multifamily apartment communities
- Apartment complexes
- Housing developments
- Assisted living facilities
- Senior living communities
- HUD-funded properties
- Fannie Mae-funded properties
- Freddie Mac-funded properties
Each high-quality radon mitigation system installation complies with state, OSHA and HUD requirements.
Responsive Repairs and Maintenance
