Radonova launches new radon dosimetry product  

Radonova has launched a new radon dosimetry product. To understand the rationale for the product launch we’ve asked Radonova's CEO, Karl Nilsson, a few questions...  Why did you choose to develop the new product? We see an increased requirement for a complete radon dosimetry solution. Put simply, the new service measures individual employee exposure to radon. Historically, mines and other underground workplaces have deployed radon dosimetry solutions. However, times change and in terms of the EU's new radiation protection directive and national radiation protection laws, the need to conduct radon dosimetry practices…

Should I be worried about temporarily high radon levels? HomeMeasurement

Should I be worried about temporarily high radon levels?

Radon levels in a house can vary considerably over 24 hours, and will be different depending on the day you take the measurement. However, if you consider the possibility of being exposed to elevated radon levels over a 10 to 20 year period, then the risk of developing lung cancer increases. Therefore, don’t worry about temporarily elevated radon levels just…
