How does the radon test process work?
The test should be placed in the lowest lived-in level of the home. The radon test should be placed in a location where it will remain undisturbed by drafts, high heat or humidity. After the radon test is completed according to directions, it should be mailed to the laboratory. A lab report will then be returned to the consumer within a few weeks indicating whether they should pursue radon remediation. The EPA also recommends that you retest your home every two years to be sure radon levels remain low.
