Radon gas kills. So, if the inspection is in a high radon area, or if the inspector discovers a radon mitigation system during the inspection and the client doesn’t want to order radon testing, the inspector might consider having the client sign a separate waiver of radon testing. Create your own clean copy of this agreement by copying and pasting it into a Word Doc.
Waiver of Radon Measurement and Release
Date:___________
Client name:______________
Subject Property address: __________________________________________
My signature below acknowledges that I have read and understand the following:
The IAC2 Consultant has advised me that the subject property may be subject to contamination by Radon, a colorless, odorless, radioactive gas listed by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as being the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the US. I have been advised that Radon decay products may modify, damage or destroy cells or DNA in human lungs.
Nevertheless, I have directed the Inspector to perform NO Radon Measurement Test, and in doing so I agree to hold the Inspector, its agents, and employees harmless and free from all liability and legal action relating to any presence of Radon at the subject property, regardless of the legal theory upon which any such claim rests.
This waiver and release shall be binding on all my heirs, agents, assignees, successors, and on any other person(s) who might otherwise be entitled to file suit or make a claim on my behalf.
