Radon Gas Test Kit

A:  Because HomeDepot is a big lumbering corporation that is all about the dollar. They've driven the little guy out of business, the one who would actually listen. Enjoy your corporate overloard.

A:  I didn't have any problems. The test and report from the company were as described.

A:  Like i said it looks like i was never going to get my results without calling them. So their employees are not task efficient.

A:  I can't speak on The Home Depot's decision to sell these as they only sell what customers purchase. Part of the problem with this sort of test device is user error. I have used these test kits for multiple real estate transactions and am happy with their test results versus other brands and the more expensive tests I have paid for with home inspectors. For me, the appeal of this product is I can purchase multiple kits for an affordable price to test an entire home. My recommendation for anyone using these kits if you are concerned about the validity of the test results: 1) use multiple kits at a time 2) follow the directions 3) vary your test window and days (not all at the same time and same days) 4) average the results to determine your risk and remediation needs. Are these the perfect test kit? Nope. Are they a good indicator of whether or not you need to correct a potentially unsafe situation? Yes!

A:  We consider it a scam also. We did everything per the directions and paid to have the test results but they said there was a problem with one of the test tubes. The cap was loose when we opened the package and a phone call to the company said it would not be a problem yet then there was! They offered to do the test again if we bought a second kit. Our advise is to talk to your county about getting a local test kit. Maybe then the testing company is legit.

A:  I had to register my product . Send it out for test results. Then they emailed results to me

A:  you just have to type in when you start and estimate 2 days later... That is what I did. It worked fine

A:  Long term testing is considered A more accurate Representation of the actual radon levels since it accounts for seasonal changes etc. however, it is less convenient as you have to provide ‘closed house’ environment for a much longer period of time (some tests are designed for 90 days or more)

A:  Hello, Thank you for you business. Are short term kits are for two to four days. Our Long Term is for three months to a year. If you have any other question please call our Customer Service @954-384-4446.

A:  The length of the sample time. Most real estate transactions cannot wait weeks or months to gather a radon sample. The short-term test kit is for a quick and most likely less reliable sample of radon. The longer term kit will be for follow up testing and average radon level over a longer period of time. If you own a home and/or are considering selling, you may want to consider a long term kit to preempt any issues prior to sale.
