Radon Testing
- Radon testing is the only way to determine if radon levels in your home are putting you and your family at an increased risk of lung cancer
- Radon testing is simple and inexpensive to complete.
- There are multiple methods of radon testing, and several testing devices on the market.
- Short term tests are ideal when quick and reliable results are needed, for example a real-estate transaction, while a long term test (90 days) is considered the gold standard method to determine the level of risk due to radon in the home.
- Health Canada has established guidelines to determine acceptable levels of radon gas in the home. They have set an acceptable limit at 200 becquerels per cubic meter (200 Bq/m3), while the World Health Organization has proposed recommended levels of 100 Bq/m3. Radon levels have measured as high as 3,400 Bq/m3 in Calgary, and can vary greatly from home to home
- We recommend purchasing a digital monitor which will provide you with reliable and quick feedback, showing both the short and the long term average results.
