Radon Levels in Delaware, OH
Delaware sits in Delaware County, which the Ohio EPA classifies as Zone 1, the state’s highest radon potential category. Zone 1 counties average indoor readings above the 4.0 pCi/L action level the EPA recommends acting on.
The shale and limestone bedrock beneath the Olentangy River valley releases radon gas into the soil, which then enters homes through foundation cracks, sump pits, and gaps around utility lines. This affects the historic Victorians and Tudors near downtown just as much as the newer construction in developments like Springer Woods. Testing is the only way to know your home’s actual level, and homeowners can register for a free test kit through the Ohio Department of Health Radon Program.

Ohio Radon Control works throughout the city of Delaware and the surrounding county. That includes the Historic Northwestern neighborhood and downtown district, homes near Mingo Park and along the Olentangy River, properties near Ohio Wesleyan University, and newer developments toward the eastern side of the city near US-23.

Buying or Selling a Home in Delaware?
Radon testing is a routine part of real estate transactions in Delaware County, one of the fastest-growing counties in Ohio, given the area’s Zone 1 classification. Here’s what buyers and sellers typically need to know:
A radon test during your inspection period tells you whether the home you're considering has elevated levels before you close. If results come back above 4.0 pCi/L, mitigation can often be scheduled and completed before your closing date.
Testing ahead of listing your home can prevent surprises during a buyer's inspection and give you time to address results on your own timeline instead of under contract pressure. A clean radon report can also be a selling point in a county where buyers already expect the question to come up.
Most real estate radon tests take 48 to 96 hours to complete, and we provide a signed report that meets the standards lenders, agents, and inspectors expect.

Trusted by Homeowners Across Delaware, OH
Yes. Delaware is located in Delaware County, which the Ohio EPA classifies as Zone 1, the state’s highest radon potential zone. The shale and limestone bedrock throughout the county contributes to elevated indoor readings in many homes.
Older homes with basements, common throughout the Historic Northwestern neighborhood, can be more prone to radon entry because of foundation cracks and gaps that develop over decades. That said, newer homes in developments like Springer Woods can test high too. Age alone doesn’t determine your risk; testing does.
Most standard sub-slab mitigation systems in Ohio cost between $800 and $1,500, depending on your home’s foundation type, size, and the complexity of the pipe routing. Homes with crawlspaces or higher radon readings can run higher.
