Fast Facts : Radon
Over 40 percent of Pennsylvania homes have radon levels above the federal guideline of 4 pCi / L of air .
Home radon levels can vary in a neighborhood , due primarily to geology and construction characteristics .
In Pennsylvania , the cost of installing a radon reduction system ranges from about $ 800 to $ 1,200 .
After a radon reduction system is installed , another radon test should be performed to make sure the radon levels are brought below 4 pCi / L .
Pennsylvania has no state law requiring that homes , schools , or other buildings be tested for radon . However , DEP recommends all be tested .
