AI Summary

  • Tenants may terminate a lease if they conduct a radon test at their own expense that shows elevated radon concentration and provide results to the landlord within 10 days of testing.

  • Landlords have 90 days after receiving test results to perform radon mitigation or hire a licensed radon professional to conduct an additional test to avoid tenant lease termination.

  • If the landlord fails to perform mitigation within 90 days or fails to hire a licensed professional for additional testing within 90 days, the tenant may terminate the lease.

  • If a landlord hires a licensed radon professional who performs an additional test showing elevated radon concentration, the tenant may still terminate the lease.

  • The law does not require either party to conduct radon testing or mitigation, and does not limit other rights or remedies under state or federal law; effective August 1, 2024 for leases entered on or after that date.
