Radon monitoring at home
Radon is a colorless and odorless radioactive gas that silently infiltrates homes. The EPA cites long-term radon exposure as the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers.
- Where should I place my monitor?
- Radon enters the home through cracks or other gaps in your basement wall. For accurate readings, place your radon monitor in the lowest lived-in level of your home.
- How much radon is too much?
- Act if levels consistently exceed 4 pCi/L. For levels between 2-4 pCi/L, consider measures to reduce radon.
- How soon will I get results?
- Regular monitoring over a month is key. Radon levels fluctuate, so a longer period provides a reliable average exposure level.
- How can I reduce my radon levels?
- Improve ventilation and seal entry points. For significant issues, professional mitigation can cut radon levels by up to 95%. Monitoring effectiveness with regular checks is the key.
