Radon exposure can cause lung cancer. EPA estimates that there are approximately 21,000 annual radon-related lung cancer deaths in the U.S. every year, second only to tobacco smoke. The combination of radon exposure and smoking can greatly increase your chances of developing lung cancer.he results of a radon test will give you the level of your homeâs indoor radon level. EPA recommends that action is taken to reduce the radon level in your home if the test results are 4pCi/L or higher.
You can measure radon levels in your home in two ways: short-term testing and long-term testing. Short-term radon test kits stay in your home for 2 to 90 days. A short-term test will give you quicker results, but it wonât tell you what your radon levels are throughout the year because radon levels change over the course of the day, with seasons, and with weather changes.
