What is Radon?
Radon (Rn) is a naturally occurring radioactive gas produced by the decay of uranium in soil, rock, and water. It is colorless, odorless, and tasteless — making it impossible to detect without proper testing equipment. It seeps into buildings through cracks in foundations and accumulates to dangerous levels indoors.
🫁
Radon Health Risks
When radon gas is inhaled, it decays and releases radioactive particles that can damage lung tissue over time. Long-term exposure is the second leading cause of lung cancer in Canada, responsible for approximately 3,000 deaths per year. Smokers exposed to radon face a dramatically higher risk.
🇨🇦
Radon Levels in Canada
Health Canada's guideline is 200 Bq/m³ — action is recommended above this level. The national average indoor radon level is approximately 47 Bq/m³, but Alberta's average is significantly higher. Edmonton sits in Zone 1, the highest risk classification, with many homes exceeding the action level.
🆚
Radon vs Carbon Monoxide
Both radon and carbon monoxide (CO) are invisible, odorless gases that can be deadly — but they are very different. CO is produced by combustion and causes acute poisoning. Radon causes cancer over years of exposure. CO detectors do NOT detect radon. You need a separate radon test to know if your home is safe.
⚠️
Is Radon Dangerous?
Yes — radon is classified as a Group 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization (WHO). There is no "safe" level of radon, but Health Canada sets 200 Bq/m³ as the point where action is strongly recommended. The higher the level and the longer the exposure, the greater the cancer risk.
🏠
How Radon Enters Your Home
Radon enters homes through: cracks in foundation walls and floors, construction joints, gaps around service pipes, cavities in walls, and through well water. Because homes are warmer than the surrounding soil, they create a slight vacuum that draws radon-laden soil gas in. Basements have the highest concentrations.
