How long does it take to process my test?

How will I receive my report?
Upon completion, your radon test analysis report will be mailed to you and available online at RadOnline. You can log in at any time to RadOnline and using your commission number and password to retrieve a copy of your report.
Are the reports easy to understand?
Yes! We explain everything in the report and make recommendations based on your results.
On your report, there is a lot of information. The detector number(s), location information, and your results. The main bit of information to look at is your Average Radon Concentration. This is the radon level recorded during the time the test kit was deployed. Next to that number there will be a +/- number called the standard deviation. This number is the variance in which your radon level may have fluctuated. It will always be a small number and have little to no impact on your average radon concentration. Any decisions on fixing a radon level should be made solely on your average level.
The US and Canada have each set a guideline for exposure to radon and in the US it is 4.0 pCi/l and in Canada the level is 200 Bq/m3.
Recommended Placement of Radon Detectors
Our radon tests are highly accurate and easy to use, but placement is important for getting correct readings. Making a mistake could give you a false negative reading, letting you believe you're breathing in safe air while you're actually inhaling unsafe levels of radon. Placement mistakes rarely create false positive readings, but it could be possible if you place the test in too small of an area in an unoccupied basement or too close to a known radon source like an unsealed sump well.
