Peachtree City’s planned community was built over several decades. Older sections, especially homes with basements, can carry radon risk that newer finishes conceal. SafeAir provides independent radon testing in Peachtree City with lab-certified results in 48-72 hours. No mitigation upsell, just an honest certified result.
Jeremy Shelton has been testing Peachtree City homes for indoor air quality problems since 2009. He founded SafeAir after discovering a mold infestation in his own crawlspace had affected his health for more than a year. Radon is different from mold in every way but one: you can’t know it’s there without a test.
SafeAir provides ACAC & IICRC-certified radon testing across Peachtree City with results in 48-72 hours. We test and report. We do not mitigate.

Yes, and Peachtree City’s village age matters more than the city-wide average.
Fayette County is classified as EPA Zone 2, where roughly 25 to 40 percent of tested homes exceed the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. Peachtree City’s recorded average of approximately 2.9 pCi/L is below the EPA action level, but that figure masks wide property-level variation. The underlying Georgia Piedmont Province bedrock includes crystalline metamorphic formations that generate radon throughout the local soil column. Homes in the city’s older villages, where basement foundations are more common, tend to test at the higher end of the county range.
Peachtree City was developed in five planned villages: Aberdeen, Braelinn, Glenloch, Kedron, and Wilksmoor. Homes in Aberdeen and Glenloch, the earliest-developed villages, were built primarily in the 1970s and 1980s with basement and crawlspace foundations. Kedron and Braelinn feature a mix of slab-on-grade and walk-out basement homes from the 1990s. Wilksmoor and the Cresswind section include primarily newer slab construction.
Zone data gives you a probability. A test gives you your actual number.
According to the U.S. EPA, radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States.
Peachtree City’s five villages span five decades of construction, with radon risk varying significantly by village era and foundation type.
Aberdeen and Glenloch, the earliest developed Peachtree City villages, feature a high proportion of ranch and two-story homes with basement and crawlspace foundations built before radon-resistant construction was standard. Fayette County’s Piedmont geology and these older foundation types make Aberdeen and Glenloch the priority testing areas in the city.
Kedron Village was developed primarily in the 1990s with a mix of slab-on-grade and walk-out basement designs on sloped terrain near Lake Peachtree. Walk-out basement configurations in Kedron Hills and Planterra Ridge are in direct soil contact, making them among the higher-risk configurations for radon accumulation in the mid-era villages.
Newer construction in Braelinn Village and Cresswind at Peachtree City is built to tighter energy standards with reduced air exchange. Tighter building envelopes concentrate whatever radon enters through slab penetrations and foundation joints. Testing is worthwhile in these communities even when construction appears modern and well-maintained.
Wilksmoor Village and the Centennial area include Peachtree City’s newest residential development, predominantly on slab-on-grade foundations. New construction is not radon-resistant by default in Georgia: foundation penetrations and slab joints allow soil gas entry. Buyers in these communities should schedule a certified test at closing.
Whatever your home type, the continuous monitor goes in your lowest livable level. The result is specific to your property, your foundation, your soil.
Jeremy or a SafeAir consultant places a calibrated continuous monitoring device in the lowest livable level of your home. The device records radon readings hour by hour over 48 hours.
Continuous electronic monitors produce significantly more data than charcoal canister kits. Their results are accepted by lenders, buyers’ agents, and real estate attorneys throughout Georgia. The $15 UGA Extension kit works for general awareness. It does not work for real estate transactions.
After device pickup, your written report arrives within 24 hours. It documents your radon level, testing conditions, and the inspector’s certification. A SafeAir consultant reviews the findings with you directly.

Radon comes up on most Peachtree City contracts now. Buyers’ agents request it. Some lenders require it. The due diligence window on most Georgia contracts runs 7–10 days.
What matters in that window: you need an independent result. A company that tests and sells mitigation has a financial reason to find a problem. SafeAir tests and reports only. If the result is below 4.0 pCi/L, you’re done. If it’s above, you know before closing and you negotiate from that position.
Mitigation in Peachtree City typically runs $800–$2,500 depending on foundation type and system design. Knowing the number before you close is leverage. Discovering it after is not.
If scheduling is time-sensitive, note your closing date in the form. SafeAir prioritizes contingency-window requests.
SafeAir does not sell radon mitigation systems. That is a deliberate choice.
Most radon companies test and mitigate. That creates a conflict: the company that finds a problem also profits from solving it. Jeremy built SafeAir to remove that conflict. He reports what the monitor records, regardless of the result. If your test comes back elevated, he explains what the number means and what your options look like. You choose your mitigator independently.
Jeremy holds certifications through ACAC (Certified Indoor Environmental Consultant, Certified Microbial Consultant) and IICRC. He has been testing indoor air quality in Georgia homes since 2009.
SafeAir tests homes and properties throughout Peachtree City and Fayette County, including:
If your neighborhood isn’t listed, we still test there.
Peachtree City and Fayette County are classified as EPA Zone 2, where roughly 25 to 40 percent of tested homes exceed the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. The city-wide average of approximately 2.9 pCi/L is below the action level, but individual home results span a wide range depending on foundation type and village. Homes in Aberdeen and Glenloch, the oldest villages, were built predominantly with basement and crawlspace foundations that provide direct soil-gas pathways. A certified test is the only way to know whether your specific Peachtree City home falls above or below the action level.
There are none. Radon is odorless, colorless, and produces no symptoms you would connect to it. Long-term exposure is cumulative. The only way to know if radon is present at an elevated level is a certified test.
Contact SafeAir for current pricing. For context: professional continuous monitor testing in the Peachtree City area typically runs $150-$300. The UGA Extension Program offers $15 charcoal kits for general screening, but those results are not accepted in most real estate transactions.
SafeAir uses 48-hour continuous electronic monitors. Your written report is typically delivered within 24 hours of device pickup. Most Peachtree City clients have results in hand within 3-4 days of scheduling.
The EPA recommends mitigation at that level. SafeAir provides the test and the result. We do not sell mitigation systems. If your result is elevated, we explain what it means and what your options are. Mitigation in Peachtree City typically costs $800-$2,500 depending on foundation type.
Georgia has no state law requiring radon disclosure or testing for home sales. However, buyers increasingly request it during due diligence, and some lenders require it on certain loan types. If a buyer requests a test and the contingency window is open, completing it before that window closes protects your transaction.
Jeremy has tested hundreds of Georgia homes since 2009.
No obligation. No upsell. Just a certified result you can trust.
