About

The EPA Map of Radon Zones helps people understand radon levels in different areas across the United States. It describes how radon is a natural gas that can be harmful if it builds up indoors. The map shows which zones have higher or lower risks of radon exposure, helping homeowners and builders take necessary precautions. By knowing their zone, people can decide if they need to test for radon or install systems to reduce its levels in their homes. The links provide more information about the map and how to use it effectively for safety planning.
