- Radon is a colorless, odorless, invisible gas that seeps into residential homes and has been linked to lung cancer. A generally acceptable safe level of radon is 4 pCi/L. A radon detection device measures the radon level once per hour at a randomly selected time throughout a one-week period. Then it calculates the mean radon level for the sample of measurements. Based on the sample results, the device performs a test of H0: µ = 4 Ha: µ > 4 where µ is the true mean radon level.
