The protocol for radon testing in multifamily dwellings differs from that of single family dwellings and typically involves a more thorough procedure. Multifamily buildings are defined as buildings with more than three attached dwellings.
A separate test must be done in each of the following:
- Each dwelling in direct contact with the ground or crawlspace
- Every non-residential ground contact room that:
- is or can be made occupied with little or no modification
- has air communication with occupiable areas (e.g. stairwells)
- Every 2,000 ft for large or open areas
- In the upper floors at least one test per floor
- testing at least 10% of the dwellings per floor
- staggering tests between floors
