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: Frequently Asked Questions
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.
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.
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.
