Question 1

Why not New Jersey?

Accepted Answer

RSSI currently does not sell to addresses in New Jersey, send reports with a New Jersey location of use, or send reports to a New Jersey address.  New Jersey applies a large annual fee and a large unit fee that make sales associated in any way with New Jersey too expensive without an additional large charge.  We sell only in the 49 states where a single uniform cost applies in all locations.

Question 2

I just bought the long term alpha track radon detector kit  by rss Does it need to be place 4 feet high? can it be moved while testing for the year?

Accepted Answer

If I remember correctly, the detector should be placed at a minimum of 4 feet high. I placed my detector on a desk that was a little higher then that. I would not move it myself. I would keep it in the original spot it was placed in to finish the test but I don't know If you can or cannot. They have a phone number, you should call it for the correct answers to your questions to be sure and to be accurate.

Question 3

Hello, is there a lab fee to get reading results from this particular test kit?

Accepted Answer

There are no additional fees.  The analysis and results are included in the cost of the test kit.

Question 4

Should this be placed in my basement or on the first floor of my home?

Accepted Answer

Another manufacturer indicated that there should be one tester per 2000 square feet, PLUS one in the basement. If this product only has one detector included, I would buy one for the basement, and buy an additional one for whichever room you spend the most time in on the first floor, such as a bedroom (sleeping) or home office. The reason I say first floor is because radon generally seeps in from soil. If you have a home gym where you do a lot of heavy breathing, consider that also.
