You can find a radon test kit at a local hardware store or online. Radon levels are different in different parts of your home, so put the small device in a room where people spend a lot of time. When the measurement is done, mail it back to the supplier, and they will send you the results. The cost should be no more than the equivalent of a few tens of dollars or Euros. You can also hire a professional.
