Take home tests like the one provided by VDH are notoriously unreliable. The first one we did gave us a report of 8 pCi/L. Did a second done in the same spot for the same amount of time gave us 5 pCi/L.

Got an electronic monitor and it averaged out around 2.5 pCi/L.

It’s pricey but it’s worth it for the peace of mind.

Is it the Airthings corenthium by chance? Think I’m going to purchase that.

Yessireebob it was.

I’m kind of pissed I even went down the rabbit hole with it. We don’t have a basement and our risk was relatively low from the jump. Peace of mind ended up being expensive.
