For Oxford homes, radon mitigation starts with a test, and a rural address may qualify for a free kit.
Radon in Oxford: the local picture
To get a free Healthy Hometowns kit in Johnson County, you must live in the county, own the home being tested, and live in an eligible rural area [1]. County staff on the first floor of the Public Health office can check whether your address qualifies when you visit [1].
Can Oxford homes get a free radon kit?
Possibly. Johnson County's free Healthy Hometowns kits go to homeowners in rural areas on the federal HRSA map. Addresses inside a green-shaded area on that map qualify [1].
Do I need to check my Oxford address before I visit?
No. Johnson County Public Health says you don't need to check eligibility first. Staff on the first floor can check your address with you when you arrive [1].

We're a referral service, not a contractor. We send mitigation requests only to contractors on Iowa HHS's current credentialed list and testing requests only to state-certified radon measurement specialists, but we don't otherwise vet them, a referral is not an endorsement, and independent contractors may pay us for referrals.
