Radon

Radon, a naturally occurring, odorless, radioactive gas that causes lung cancer is found in 5-10% of the homes in Wisconsin above the US EPA guideline of 4 pCi/L.  Radon can be controlled in any house, and the only way to know the radon level in a house is to measure it yourself or hire a contractor to test for it.

Radon test kits are available for pick-up or ordering.  Call 262.896.8300 to order kits from Waukesha County using a Visa/MasterCard.

Kits are also available from the following local health agencies:
