Comprehensive radon testing, mitigation, and monitoring services with specialized solutions for real estate transactions and long-term radon management in Calgary homes and businesses.
Radon is a radioactive gas that occurs naturally from the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water. It's completely invisible, odorless, and tasteless—making it impossible to detect without proper testing. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking and is responsible for approximately 3,200 lung cancer deaths in Canada each year.
Calgary and surrounding areas have varying levels of radon concentration due to geological conditions. Some neighborhoods have significantly elevated levels, while others have minimal risk. The only way to know your radon exposure is through professional testing. Health Canada recommends that all homes be tested for radon, especially those in areas with known radon potential.
