Radon Risk Information
Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, after smoking. The US EPA and
Surgeon General strongly recommend taking further action when a homes radon test
results are 4.0 pCi/l or greater. The concentration of radon in the home is measured
in picocuries per liter of air (pCi/l). Radon levels less than 4.0 pCi/l still pose some risk
and in many cases may be reduced. If the radon level in the home is between 2.0 and
4.0 pCi/l, the EPA still recommends that you consider fixing the home. The average
indoor radon level is estimated to be about 1.3 pCi/l; roughly 0.4 pCi/l of radon is
normally found in the outside air. The higher the home radon level, the greater the
health risk. Even homes with very high radon levels can be reduced to below 4.0 pCi/l
and many homes can be reduced to 2.0 pCi/l or less.Ohio Certified Radon Tester #RT1326
