Radon Testing for Businesses

What is Radon Gas?

Radon is a Class A cancer-causing chemical. Radon is known to instigate lung cancer in children and adults.

A large number of businesses in the area have a radon gas saturation above the dangerous level.

Radon gas filters out of the topsoil, not the building. No building, newly built or longstanding, is fully shielded from radon gas contamination.

Each and every establishment meshes with the ground underneath it in a different manner. That is part of the reason why businesses next door to others often have dramatically different radon saturation.

Radon gas saturation will shift daily and seasonally inside of a safe range. A quick radon gas test is a snapshot and a dependable indicator of whether or not the building has a radon accumulation.

Radon has a dangerous duration of only a few days. Accordingly, radon gas levels won’t be greater if the building is closed for months, days, or years.

How Does Radon Enter the Building?

No building is entirely draft-proof.

Radon gas will suffuse through any ground-facing gap in the property such as drainage, pipeworks, and even small cracks in the concrete work.

The technique to know with certainty the accumulation of radon in the dwelling is to run a radon test.
