RADON GAS The Scoop on Finding It
R
adon is a radioactive gas that has been found in homes all over the United States. During the natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water, it gets into the air you breathe in your home through cracks and other holes in the foundation. Measuring levels of Radon may be a necessary step in determining the safety of the air in your home. There are two basic types of devices commonly used for short-term testing. The “passive-devices” do not need power to function. These includes alpha-track detectors, charcoal canisters, charcoal liquid scintillation detectors, all types usually available through hardware stores, and the internet. The last, electret ion chamber detectors are only available through laboratories. All of these passive devices are returned to a laboratory for analysis. The alpha -track and electret ion chamber detectors are for long term testing, usually 6 months to a year, and are then returned to the laboratory. These would be most commonly used after remediation to control Radon, to determine effectiveness. Elevated levels are often found during the heating season. Weather conditions, frozen ground, operation of furnaces, and opening/closing of
windows and doors are factors that cause these patterns. For a homeowner, short-term test kits (charcoal canisters) are the quickest way to test, with a minimum test period of 48 hours, and can be easily and inexpensively done by an occupant of a home. These devices come in a sealed pouch with instructions. You would break the seal, set the device out for a 48-hour period, re-seal the device the provided pouch, document the collection location and time, and return the device to the laboratory for analysis…usually just a week. The cost is usually $20-$40.
outside? Where all the windows opened? Was there a wind storm during the test?) The “active-device” monitors generally require operation by trained testers, and these tests often cost more than passive testing. The protocols used in these tests will validify the results, a necessity in Real Estate transactions, or if necessary in legal cases. Fees for these tests can run up to $500, frequently with discounts for bundling with a Home Inspection.
Either way, testing is an inexpensive way to determine if your home exceeds the EPA’s action level of 4 pCi/Ls, now a national standard when compared to the medical expense and debilitating consequences of lung cancer. The bottom line, local Home Inspectors will know from experience how common action level tests occur in your area, just ask.
But, because radon levels tend to vary from season to season, a short-term test is less likely than a long-term test to tell you your yearround average radon level. The second group are the “active device.” These monitors consist of different types of “continuous monitors” and all require power to function. This is the class of devices you will find in use by Home Inspectors. Many of the “active monitors” provide additional data such as the range of variation within the test period, temperature, barometric readings, and will detect interference with the test.

How to preserve your wealth You’ve worked hard. You own your own home. You have a little savings and a 401 (K) or IRA. How do you make sure that the money you’ve earned retains its purchasing power? How do you preserve wealth? This article is not about gaining wealth, nor tax strategies to reduce the skimming of your income by the Federal Government. It is about preserving your current $$$ value, your accumulated net worth.
There are 4 ways to preserve wealth, 4 separate vaults in which you can store the value of the money you have now. People storing wealth put their money in 4 places, and it is my recommendation that you diversify your wealth into these 4 categories. As a rule of thumb, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to store 25% in each category, though some people may want extra weight in one class over another. 1. Cash & Liquid Savings: This includes your checking and savings account, C.D.’s and Bonds (Federal, State or Local Government). All these items are essentially very secure but low-interest investments. In other words, this is the portion of your $$$ that you want SAFE & READILY AVAILABLE (This is what “liquid” means). The downside of this category is that you often lose against inflation. This portion of your wealth is safe and easily retrieved but is actually losing value in the vault over time because of rising prices. $10 today may only buy $9 of goods tomorrow.
2. Stocks: You should invest something in the Stock Market. Most people feel uncomfortable handling this themselves because choices must be made regularly. The stock market is profitable, and your return should exceed the inflation rate, but stocks these days MUST be traded from time to time.
Owning your own home, preferably without debt, is a means of preserving wealth. Buying and selling stocks is necessary in this era. It is no longer appropriate to use Grandad’s system of “Buy & Hold Forever.” Therefore, you will probably need a trustworthy Broker who, of course, does remove some of those gains that would have been all yours if you did it yourself. Edward Jones is developing a ‘family friendly’ business in this regard but some Edward Jones representatives have very limited skills. So you may want to use a Merrill Lynch or a Charles Schwabb. This decision should be made carefully, but stocks form the second pillar of wealth preservation. 3. Real Estate: Owning your own home, preferably without debt, is a means of preserving wealth but, similar to the Stock Market, there is an element of risk and it can rise or fall in value over time. There is a school of thought that favors maximum leverage, or borrowing, against real estate but I am not of that opinion. From an Alaska point of view, it is my considered opinion that real estate in Anchorage will maintain an appreciation rate above the inflation rate for the next decade. This is because the economy of Alaska, though “steady as she goes,” is fundamentally sound.
3350 Midtown Place Anchorage, AK 99503 Each Office Independently Owned and Operated
Despite fears and rumors, the State has enormous natural resources, a strategic location for military as well as international freight, and is an increasingly attractive place to live or to visit. Your real estate assets should also include at least one income property, though it does not need to be in Alaska if cash flow is better elsewhere. 4. Gold and Other Precious Metals or Items: In my view, over the long term (10 to 30 years), this is the most “Inflation Proof “ investment of all and should comprise at least 25% of your wealth. The category includes Gold (literal, physical gold preferred) or Gold Investments, Silver and Other Metals, Diamonds, Artwork and Antiques. Within this category, I recommend half be allocated to Gold. While stories and predictions abound over the precious metal (currently around $1,200 an ounce) and, keeping in mind it has no industrial use, it is my sincere belief that, as an Alternative Currency in its own right, you MUST put some of your Dollars here. That is, use some of your current money to purchase non-money. Gold is the “alternative” wealth storage used by Sovereign Governments the world over. It is not only an inflation hedge but a safe haven in the event of global crises which are all but certain to be heading our way in the years ahead. Conclusion: The field of expertise that your Realtor specializes in is Vault number 3. My office, and that of the many fine Realtors in Alaska, can help you fill that particular vault, but make sure you have 4 Vaults total. Diversification is the key.
