Invisible gas, ignored risk?
Homeowners buy radon kits that sit unopened for years. Lung risk stays invisible.
1. The problem
Homeowners buy radon test kits with good intentions, then shelve them for years. Invisible gas risks lungs silently. Placement rules confuse across home types. Results need mitigation pros urgently. The hardest part is finishing tests started. A kit might expire unopened. That uncertainty makes it hard to breathe safely at home.
“Test kits sit shelved years here. I need seasonal nudges with placement steps simple.”
2. What exists
EPA guides, test kit sellers and mitigators address radon, while testing lags hugely. Guides inform without follow-through. A seller might ship without reminders. There is little help with test-completion flows plus result-based pro matching for homes.
3. The solution
The solution could be a finish-the-test engine for radon. It could time kits to closed-house seasons. It could guide placement step by step simply. Results could match mitigation pros instantly. The goal would be tested homes breathing safe.
