Risk Overview
How do I know if my house is in a high radon area?
The EPA’s radon map classifies every part of Ireland by the share of homes predicted to be above the Reference Level of 200 Bq/m³. A High Radon Area is anywhere more than 1 in 10 homes is predicted to be above it. Enter an Eircode on the EPA’s map, or get the EPA classification for the address inside a PropertyPack report. Radon varies house to house, so the EPA recommends testing any home regardless of the area’s classification.

How this banding works: counties are grouped by the share of homes tested that measured at or above the 200 Bq/m³ Reference Level in the EPA's published results (to end-2019), relative to the national share of 14.1% of homes tested. Testing was promoted hardest in known high-radon areas, so these are shares of homes tested, not of all homes, and radon varies house to house.

Radon Risk FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Is radon a problem in Ireland?
Yes. Radon is linked to around 350 lung cancer cases in Ireland each year, the second biggest cause after smoking. In EPA measurements to end-2019, 14.1% of homes tested nationally were at or above the Reference Level of 200 Bq/m³, and the EPA's 2022 radon map predicts about 170,000 homes above that level. Testing skewed toward known high-radon areas, so measured shares describe homes tested, not all homes. The EPA recommends testing any home regardless of area.
How much does a radon test cost in Ireland?
A standard radon test kit from the EPA costs approximately €52 and involves placing detectors in your home for at least three months. Professional measurement services from accredited providers are also available. PropertyPack reports include the EPA's radon risk classification for your specific Eircode.
Can radon levels in a home be fixed?
Yes. Remediation measures such as a radon sump (active sub-floor depressurisation) can reduce indoor radon by up to 90%, typically costing €800 to €1,500. New buildings must include radon preventive measures under the Building Regulations.
How do I check radon risk for a specific property?
Enter the property's Eircode on PropertyPack.ie. Your report covers EPA radon level estimates and zone classifications along with the rest of its 18 official checks. Reports use official government data, and the free snapshot is ready in about a minute.
Does the report measure radon inside the house?
No. Radon can only be measured with a detector inside the home over about three months. The report gives the EPA classification for the area around the Eircode, which is how buyers and solicitors decide whether to ask for a test or a radon barrier before they bid.
Is a high radon area a dealbreaker?
Rarely on its own. It changes the questions you ask: has the house been tested, does it have a barrier or sump, and what would remediation cost. The report gives you the area risk and those questions.
Do I need an account?
No. Enter the Eircode, get the free snapshot in about a minute, and pay €29 for the full report as a guest. If you are checking several houses, a pack of 3 reports costs €59 with a free account.
