Should I Be Worried About Radon Gas?

As a highly toxic radioactive gas, Radon is released via the ground, water and some building materials slowly over time. Radon poses a danger to your health and has become the second leading cause of lung cancer in Canada. As Radon is tasteless, odourless, and colourless, it is crucial that Radon concentrations inside your Amherstburg location are accurately tested.

Choosing The Right Radon Testing

If annual Radon concentration levels within your Amherstburg building start to exceed 200 Becquerels per cubic metre (200 Bq/m³) with Radon testing, Health Canada recommends action be taken. We are able to provide you with two Radon testing options to assist you in measuring the Radon concentration levels at your location precisely, Short-Term Detectors (2-7 days); and Long-Term Detectors (1-12 months) for accurate Radon testing. With Radon levels often fluctuating, Long-Term Detectors are the ideal choice for a more accurate determination of Radon levels found within your Amherstburg location, as short term Radon testing is most often performed when results are required on an urgent basis, such as with the closing of a real estate transaction.

Radon Testing

Radon is a radioactive gas that is formed naturally by the decomposition of uranium in soil, water and rock.

Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer (after smoking) and is rarely determined to be the culprit. Radon is more of a concern in buildings as opposed to outdoors, as buildings are typically an enclosed space. Radon levels fluctuate seasonally, but are typically higher in the winter months. As buildings are typically sealed at night (less outdoor air intake), radon levels are higher at night than
