When Should You Test Your Home for Radon?
Before Buying or Selling a Home
Radon testing is a standard part of a thorough home inspection and often plays a role in Radon in Real Estate transactions.
After Renovations
Major home renovations can change air flow and foundation integrity, impacting radon levels.
Every 2–5 Years
Even if your home previously tested low, shifting soil or changes to air conditioning systems can alter readings.
If You Live in a High-Risk Area
Certain radon zones have naturally higher levels due to local geology.
FAQ: Residential Radon Testing

A short-term radon test typically takes 2–7 days and provides an initial indication of your home’s radon levels.

Short-term kits offer quick results, while long-term radon tests measure levels over 90+ days, giving a more accurate year-round average.
