Not to mention, it's a responsible choice! Educating yourself on the adverse effects of high Radon levels, along with testing your home enables you to take the proper steps to resolve a potential health hazard.

| Short-term Testing (air):
Short-term Radon testing is done for a 48 to 96 hour period. This is the fastest way to test for Radon levels. It is recommended that you perform two short-term tests, since Radon levels may vary daily or seasonally. If you test for two days on the weekend, your reading levels may be lower as you will most likely be in and out of your home more frequently than during the weekdays. On the weekdays, while you and your family are at school or work, Radon levels will build since your home's doors and windows will most likely be shut tightly. |
Long-term Testing (air): Tests lasting for 90 days to one year can give you the most accurate readings by revealing the average Radon level in your home over a long period of time. |

The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency of the USA) recommends that you test the following steps in ensuring your safety against Radon:
Step 1:Conduct a short-term test. If your returned results read 4 pCi/L* or higher, take a second, follow-up test.
Step 2:The follow up test should be taken immediately if your short term test is 10 pCi/L* or higher. If not, you may follow up with a second short or long term test.
Step 3:If you followed up with a long-term test, fix your home if your reading result is 4 pCi/L* or more. If you followed up with a short-term test, the higher the results, the more certain you can be, that you should fix your home. It is recommended that you fix your home if your average between the two tests is 4 pCi/L* or more.
