At Galloway Building Inspections we can tell you, air-radon levels fluctuate naturally on a daily and seasonal basis. A short term test is recommended for initial testing to quickly determine unhealthy conditions. Transient weather such as wind and changes in barometric pressure can affect short-term concentrations[1] as well as ventilation such as open windows and the operation of exhaust fans.
Testing for radon in the air is accomplished using passive or active devices placed in the building. Some devices are promptly sent to a laboratory for analysis, others calculate the results on-site.
