Radon Test Kits in Worcester County, MA

Worcester County is EPA Zone 1. Newer one and two family homes here, built after January 2, 2015, are supposed to have a passive radon system, and the state says to test anyway. There is no county kit counter in this directory. Massachusetts DPH points you to Kansas State University for a discounted kit. The short-term price on that program's page is $20.
