What is Radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas formed by uranium breakdown and found in all soil and bedrock. Radon gas is odourless, colourless, and tasteless, so it requires specialized equipment to detect, measure, and control it. According to Health Canada, radon is the leading cause of lung cancer for non-smokers and is 10 times more dangerous for children. Radon gas is present in ALL new and old homes and cannot be detected unless you test your home.

Radon Mitigation
The most common radon reduction method is called sub-slab depressurization. With this Residential Radon Removal solution a pipe is installed through the foundation floor to an outside wall. A small fan is attached which draws the radon from below the house to the outside before it can enter your home. Increasing ventilation and sealing major entry routes can also help reduce radon levels, but their effectiveness will be limited depending on how high the radon level is and the unique characteristics of each home.
