EPA Radon Levels
Kansas has 105 counties and 65 (62%) have been assigned Zone 1 counties by the EPA. Zone 1 counties have the highest potential to have homes test higher than 4 pCi/L. Kansas's state radon zone average is 1.38, which is the average of all county zone ratings the EPA has assigned the state, ranking it 11 among all states.
The radon levels in Kansas are above average in many areas of the state. That means there’s an increased risk for all homeowners, which is why we recommend testing exposure levels at least twice a year.

Disclaimer: It is strongly recommended that all households, schools and office spaces test radon levels individually. The EPA Radon Zone data is not an indicator of individual test results, but a guideline for strategic planning. Toxic radon levels can be found in all counties, regardless of their zone rating. While we make efforts to keep this information up to date, it is derived from thirdparty sources which may not be accurate or reflect the most current statistics.
