*As indicated on the short-term test kit instructions from Alpha Energy:  Radon test kits must reach the lab at Alpha Energy Laboratories within 10 days of concluding the test in order for test results to be accurate.  Although your kit comes with pre-paid First Class postage, slower service and severe delays in First Class mail service have been experienced due to the United States Postal Service (USPS) budget crisis and subsequent facilty closures.  We strongly encourage you to consider an alternate shipping method, as outlined in your kit's instruction sheet.

What is Radon?

Radon is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and chemically inert radioactive gas. It is formed by the natural radioactive decay of uranium in rock, soil, and water. It can be found in all 50 states. Testing for it is the only way of telling how much is present.
