Why radon testing matters in Exeter

Exeter's bedrock and glacial soils can allow soil gas migration into homes, and the town's older farmhouses plus newer country construction produce a wide spread of results. Testing is the only reliable way to know a specific home's level.

Many Exeter homes have full basements or walk-out lower levels. Homes with finished basement living space are particularly worth testing at that level.

Rhode Island guidance follows the same framework. See our pages on understanding radon results, what to do about a high radon result, and Rhode Island radon information for more.
