KEYPOINTS FOR RADON TESTING
Radon testing is crucial for all homes, irrespective of their age or location.
Radon is a radioactive gas that forms naturally when uranium, thorium, or radium, which are radioactive metals break down in rocks, soil and groundwater. People can be exposed to radon primarily from breathing radon in air that comes through cracks and gaps in buildings and homes. Because radon comes naturally from the earth, people are always exposed to it.
For accurate results, the EPA suggests testing for at least 48 hours with sealed building conditions.
If radon levels exceed the EPA action level of 4.0 picocuries per liter (pCi/L), homeowners should take steps for mitigation.
Home inspectors should furnish a comprehensive report outlining test results and suggested mitigation measures.
Crucially, radon testing demands specialized capabilities. Home inspectors must be properly certified. If uncertified, inspectors should recommend hiring a certified radon testing professional.
