Disclaimer: The uncertainty of this radon
measurement is .+/-10%. Factors contributing to
uncertainty include, statistical variations, daily
and seasonal variations in radon concentrations, and
operation of the dwelling. Interference with test
conditions may influence the test results.
This report may only be transferred to a third party
in its entirety. Results Shown on this report
represent levels of radon gas measured between the
dates shown in the room or area of the site
identified above as "Property Tested". Incorrect
information will affect results. The results may not
be construed as either predictive or supportive of
measurements conducted in any area of this structure
at any other time. AccuStar Labs, its employees and
agents are not responsible for the consequences of
any action taken or not taken based upon the results
reported or any verbal or written interpretation of
the results.
What your test results mean
The average indoor radon level is estimated to be
about 1.3 pCi/L, and about 0.4 pCi/L of radon is
normally found in the outside air. If the results of
your test show a radon level of approximately 4.0
pCi/L or higher the EPA recommends that you perform
a second short term test to verify the radon level.
If the second test results are equal to or higher
than the first, then you may be certain that you
have a radon problem and need to take action.
There are several methods that can be used to lower
radon levels in your home or office. Some techniques
prevent radon from entering your home while others
reduce radon levels after it has entered. The EPA
generally recommends methods which prevent the entry
of radon. Your state Radon Agency can provide you
with a number of references, resources and
licensed/certified contractors to evaluate your
problem and recommend a reduction method. The below
listed references may be used to learn more about
the Radon problem, remediate the problem within your
home or office and provide sources for additional
information. If you do not have internet access, the
state Radon Agencies phone numbers are listed in the
"Guide to the Dangers of Radon" booklet provided
with your Radon Test Kit.
