Radon Test Kits in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania DEP says a home test kit from a hardware or home improvement store costs about $20 to $30. A free short-term confirmation kit is available only if a screening result is greater than 100 pCi/L. The American Lung Association, with DEP, also offers a limited free screening kit by mail. Delaware County lists free radon kits in its Test and Go kiosks. We did not verify a current Allegheny County giveaway.

Pennsylvania DEP home radon guidance
Pennsylvania DEP says testing is the only way to know your home's level, and that store kits cost about $20 to $30.
DEP says an easy-to-use home test kit can be purchased at hardware or home improvement stores for about $20 to $30. That is a store range, not a DEP sale price.
Buy a store kit, or hire a state-certified testing company. DEP also describes two limited free-kit paths below.
We did not find an Allegheny County kit counter on an official page during this check. Do not assume a free Pittsburgh pickup.
Pennsylvania DEP confirmation kit
DEP offers a free short-term confirmation kit if a screening result is greater than 100 pCi/L. This is not a general free kit.

Free
Free only for this confirmation case.
Call 800-237-2366 or 717-783-3594.
A separate note on the same page says parents of newborns may receive a hospital packet with a coupon for a free DEP kit. That path is for the newborn program, not for every household.
Pennsylvania Lung Association and DEP radon kits
The American Lung Association and Pennsylvania DEP offer a limited free radon kit by mail for residents who have not yet tested.
Who it is for. The page says the kits are for Pennsylvania residents who have not yet tested their homes. The page title says radon target counties. The form asks for an address. One kit per family.
Free
Free. One kit per family. The page says the number of kits is limited.
Order on the Lung Association page. Allow two to four weeks for delivery. Postage to the lab is included, and the page says results are at no cost. Use it as a first screening test in the lowest lived-in area.
Order link published by the agency
This is separate from the DEP confirmation kit, which is only for a screening result above 100 pCi/L. The order page does not name which counties are the target counties, so do not assume every address is accepted until the form says so.
Delaware County Test and Go radon kits
Delaware County lists radon test kits among the free products in its Test and Go health kiosks.
Who it is for. The county says kiosk products are free to residents.

The kiosk page says it was updated September 18, 2026. A separate April 6, 2026 press release announced radon kits for National Public Health Week. The September page still names radon test kits. The Maternity Care Coalition site in Upper Darby is listed for menstrual, sexual health, and baby supplies, not as a radon kiosk, so it is not shown here. The community college address is listed and is not pinned, because a building coordinate was not confirmed.
