If you are looking into radon-in-water aeration system in Union Township, what the building sits on is the place to start.
When this is the right question
- A gross alpha or radon-in-water result from a Private Well Testing Act sample
- A private well and an indoor reading that a soil-gas system did not fully explain
- Neighbours on the same aquifer with known radioactivity in their water
Why this comes up in Union Township
Much of the township sits outside a public supply. Where a well serves an address, it draws from whichever of the township's three bedrock settings that lot happens to sit on.
Union Township — the state's own numbers
14% of the 2,584 test results NJDEP holds for Union Township were at or above the 4.0 pCi/L action level — 364 of them. That puts it in Tier 2 — moderate potential.
Union Township is a rural township of ridge and valley ground west of Clinton, split by Interstate 78, and that shapes what a system here has to be designed around.
What access looks like here
Open rural lots with good access on the newer properties; older farmsteads can be tighter and more built-around.
Construction permits go through Union Township, and installing radon mitigation for a fee anywhere in New Jersey requires NJDEP certification.
What the work involves
Aeration strips radon out of the water in a vented tank before it reaches the taps, then discharges it outdoors. It is the treatment the EPA points to for high waterborne radon, it needs a repressurisation pump and annual servicing, and it belongs at the point of entry — treating one bathroom does nothing for the rest of the house.

The sooner it is measured, the more of the options stay open.
Certification, checked before referral
Installing radon mitigation for a fee in New Jersey requires NJDEP certification as a radon mitigation business, affiliated with a certified radon mitigation specialist (N.J.A.C. 7:28-27). We confirm that on the NJDEP register and record the date we checked. That is a check, not an endorsement — satisfy yourself before you hire.
