Predicted (model estimate). The pCi/L figures on this page are long-term area averages from a peer-reviewed national model built on millions of real radon tests (2001-2021). They describe the typical home in this area - not your home, which can be several times higher or lower. The EPA radon zone is a separate, 1993 county-level classification. How the numbers work.

What this means for Trumbull

The typical Trumbull County home is predicted in the 2-4 pCi/L band. The EPA's guidance for this range is to consider fixing, because there is no known safe level and roughly one home in several in a moderate area will test above 4.

The 1993 EPA zone (2) and the 2001-2021 model agree for Trumbull. County figures weight each ZIP by its 2010 Census population, so they describe where people live rather than empty land.

Comparable Ohio counties: Defiance County (2.2), Geauga County (2.2), Clermont County (2.2), Fulton County (2.2). The state's highest is Knox County at 5.8 pCi/L.

Mitigation is a routine job: a fan-driven pipe that vents soil gas from under the slab to above the roofline, typically $800-$2,500 installed (typical range; local quotes vary). Use certified professionals: EPA find-a-professional. Read the full mitigation guide.

Trumbull County radon questions

Is radon high in Trumbull County, Ohio?
Moderate. The model predicts a long-term basement average of 2.2 pCi/L in Trumbull County (about 1.2× the US average of 1.8 and about 22% below the Ohio average of 2.8). That is in the 2-4 pCi/L range where the EPA recommends considering mitigation. Ranked 78 of 88 Ohio counties.
Should I test for radon in Trumbull County?
Yes, soon. With a predicted average of 2.2 pCi/L, many homes in Trumbull County will test above the 4 pCi/L action level. Use a short-term kit first; if it reads 2 or higher, confirm with a long-term test or continuous monitor before deciding on mitigation.
What does EPA Radon Zone 2 mean for Trumbull County?
Zone 2 - moderate potential (2-4 pCi/L). The zone map dates from 1993 and classifies whole counties. The 2001-2021 model agrees with the zone here. Neither replaces a test of your own home.
