The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) recognizes the significance of radon testing and actively encourages homeowners to take proactive measures in mitigating radon if elevated levels are detected. It is important to note that radon can be present in homes across the state, regardless of the location. Therefore, the NJDEP recommends that all homeowners undergo radon testing to ensure their safety. In specific areas designated as “Radon Priority Areas,” based on historical testing data and geological considerations, the risk of elevated radon levels is higher. Homeowners residing within these zones are strongly advised to conduct regular radon tests to stay informed about their radon levels.
