Using a detector to measure for radon continuously, what are the advantages?

When the analysis results of your radon measurement shows that the average concentration of one or more measurement points exceeds the reference threshold set by the regulations, it is necessary to take action to reduce radon levels below the threshold. However, the radon concentration in the air is never constant. It evolves every minute. This is one of the reasons…

Choose the right radon sensor to optimize ventilation in workplaces and schools

In this article, we explain why it is important to choose the right radon sensor if you are looking to optimize ventilation in workplaces and schools. In properties with ventilation, radon levels can often vary and this is often dependent on whether the ventilation is running or not. Normally, radon levels are significantly lower when the ventilation is switched on.…

Radon and ventilation: Robin, a radon sensor which controls ventilation

Radon: a radioactive natural gas that pollutes indoor air Radon is a colorless and odorless natural radioactive gas that comes from the ground and is present everywhere on the surface of the globe. It derives from the chain of radioactive decay of Uranium. As it is a gas it rises to the surface when it forms. Diluted outside, radon presents…

How effective are radon maps and what do they represent?

In many countries across the world, authorities have designed a wide variety of national radon maps that are used to illustrate radon priority areas. A recent paper published by Eric Petermann, Peter Bossew, and Bernd Hoffmann from BfS, Germany, questions the effectiveness of radon maps and whether they are having the desired impact on the public. Understanding radon maps Radon…
