This paper examines the frequency distribution of indoor radon concentrations and air exchange rates in conventional and energy-efficient houses, discusses radon source magnitudes, compares the distribution of source magnitudes with information on emanation rates from source materials, and, finally, considers the ways in which variability in source magnitude might affect regulatory efforts to control indoor concentrations of radon and its daughters.
