Key Points For Radon Testing

Radon testing is a critical step for every home, regardless of age or location. Elevated radon levels pose serious health risks, making accurate testing essential for both homeowners and buyers.

EPA Guidelines
• The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends testing in the lowest livable areas of a home, often the basement.
• Radon testing methods include:
     Passive testing – placing test kits in the home for a set period.
     Active testing – using electronic monitors to measure radon levels continuously.

Testing Conditions
• For dependable results, tests should run for a minimum of 48 hours.
• Homes must remain under “closed building conditions” during testing to ensure accuracy.
• If radon levels exceed the EPA action threshold of 4.0 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L), mitigation steps should be taken promptly.
