JOIN EAISLEARN MORE

The deadline for all Iowa public schools to test for and fix radon is July 1, 2027. That means this coming winter is your school district's last shot to meet Iowa Code 280.32 School Radon Safety requirements.

  • School districts  can save budget dollars by testing their own buildings with training that is Iowa HHS-approved.
  • The EAIS School Radon Training & Support System (SRTSS)© is all schools need to meet the long arm of the law, and help prevent lung cancer.
  • EAIS is non-profit, Iowa-based, and HHS-approved.
  • EAIS has gained on-the-trail experience with over 157 Iowa schools districts since 2015.
  • FIRST-TIME SCHOOL DISTRICTS: Save the date and register for a 2026-27 SRTSS© Kickoff (face-to-face) on October 14 or October 21, 2026
  • RETURNING SCHOOL DISTRICTS: Check your School Radon Testing Rotation Calendar, and watch for a reminder from your EAIS radon rep, to know if there is a need for you to register this year. Save the date and/or register for a Radon Review Zoom on October 2 or October 7, 2026.
EAIS has helped over 130 Iowa school districts test their facilities for radon.

SCHOOL RADON TESTING: JULY 1, 2027 DEADLINE

 #RadonFighters know the best time to test for radon is winter, which means there are now only 4 months left for Iowa schools to meet Iowa Code Chapter 280.32 (2022 HF2412 School Radon Safety Act) radon testing requirements! School districts need to start and finish testing during the 26-27 school year in order to meet the law requirements.  EAIS has schools covered with its School Radon Training & Support System©, helping  save taxpayer dollars by teaching schools to test for radon themselves.  Join the 130+ Iowa school districts already testing with us by registering for one of our October 2026 Kickoffs!

EAIS offers energy-related support and training as member districts work toward renewable energy sources, electrification, and more.

NEW ENERGY SUPPORT

EAIS prides itself on focusing on member needs and implementing its member schools’ suggestions. Our members have asked us to focus on the creation of energy supports schools will need in the future to help save budget dollars, such as renewable energy/solar and building electrification. Schools can reduce energy usage, improve buildings and save General Fund dollars with EAIS membership.

 

TESTIMONIALS

Hear from our member schools

 “The radon testing process that’s laid out by EAIS is phenomenal. It’s  simple. It doesn’t take a lot of time. I believe schools need to be a part of the process, rather than have an outside source do the testing for you. (I know) you want to do what’s best for children…test for radon with the EAIS Radon Training & Support System.  ” 

- Danny Roberts, Davis County (Iowa) Community School District director of Support Services

“EAIS was instrumental in developing a radon testing plan and schedule for our district.  When our Elementary and High School tests came back and we found that we needed to mitigate multiple parts of those buildings, EAIS was there to help us through the process. They put us in contact with a mitigation contractor, guided us through post-mitigation testing, and now ensure that all followup testing is being completed as required. The differing testing periods for mitigated and non-mitigated spaces can be a challenge to track, and they make it simple. Our district highly recommends EAIS.” 

- Derek Chappas, Okoboji (Iowa) Community School District maintenance director

“…When you first look at it…(doing school radon testing yourself) can seem a little overwhelming. But with the help you get from your EAIS Radon Rep/support person, it’s really a piece of cake.”

- Todd Goulding, Marshalltown (Iowa) Community School District electrician and maintenance support
