DIY Radon Test Kits

Available at hardware stores for 15 to 30 dollars. You mail a charcoal canister to a lab and receive results. Suitable for initial screening when no real estate transaction is involved.

DIY Limitations

DIY kits require strict closed-house conditions and proper placement. Results are not certified for real estate transactions in most states.

Professional Testing Advantages

Certified results, proper placement by a trained technician, chain-of-custody documentation, and expert interpretation.

Our Recommendation

For real estate, always use a certified professional. For initial peace-of-mind, a quality DIY kit is a reasonable start but follow up professionally if elevated.
