Seven Massachusetts libraries now offer EcoBlu\u2122 radon detectors through Library of Things programs, helping residents test their homes for radon at no cost.<\/div>\n

SAN JOSE, Calif. – June 9, 2026 –<\/strong> Ecosense<\/a>, a leading provider of radon detection and monitoring solutions, today announced the continued expansion of its Library Lending Program<\/a> in Massachusetts. In collaboration with local libraries, seven libraries in Massachusetts have begun distributing Ecosense EcoBlu™ radon detectors through their Library of Things initiatives<\/a>, providing residents with free access to award-winning radon testing technology.<\/p>\n

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that is the number-one cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers. Because radon is odorless, colorless, and tasteless (i.e., cannot be perceived by sight, smell, or taste), its presence in residential buildings often goes undetected until levels are dangerously high.<\/p>\n

The Ecosense Library Lending Program is an efficient tool for solving this problem. The program makes it possible for people to get access to high-quality radon tests offered through community libraries, including the Marlborough Public Library.<\/p>\n

“We’re thrilled to be able to offer this important detection device to our community. Homeowners will now be able to make informed decisions about radon levels in their homes,” said Sara Belisle, Library Director at Marlborough Public Library. “We’re circulating two devices, and there’s currently a waitlist!”<\/p>\n

As public awareness of the dangers of radon gas rises, the demand for accessible, continuous monitoring and radon testing devices is becoming increasingly critical.<\/p>\n

“Libraries have an important role in connecting individuals with information that enriches daily lives,” noted Jinny Choi, Director of E-commerce at Ecosense. “Through the Ecosense Library Lending Program, which distributes EcoBlu™ radon detectors, we are enabling more households to access reliable, real-time radon monitoring.”<\/p>\n

Conventional radon test kits typically require sending samples to laboratories for analysis. In comparison, the EcoBlu™ provides users with instant radon readings on the device’s screen, allowing them to know their home’s radon levels and act accordingly if further measures are recommended or required.<\/p>\n

The Massachusetts library lending program aligns with Ecosense’s broader mission to increase access to radon testing. In addition, the program will help more people become aware of the dangers of radon and take action to protect themselves, their homes, and their loved ones.<\/p>\n

Since its launch, the Ecosense Library Lending Program has been adopted in more than 700 libraries across 14 states in the US, providing people with an easy way to acquire advanced equipment for detecting radon.<\/p>\n
