Ohio HB820 mandates radon testing in school facilities and offers tax credits for home radon mitigation systems.

Ohio HB820 requires school districts, college-preparatory boarding schools, STEM schools, chartered nonpublic schools, and community schools to test their facilities for radon. The Department of Education and Workforce will determine the testing schedule, which must align with the school district's schedule. All radon testing must be performed by a licensed professional. The bill also creates a tax credit for homeowners who install radon mitigation systems, up to $2,000 per address. The credit applies to taxable years starting from January 1, 2027.
