What Are Safe Radon Levels in Canadian Homes?
In Canada, the radon action level is 200 Bq/m³. Below this is considered safe. Between 200 and 600 Bq/m³, homeowners should seriously consider mitigating to prevent long-term health risks. Above 600 Bq/m³, immediate action is required to reduce exposure.

Why is Radon Gas Dangerous?
Radon gas can enter homes through cracks in floors, walls, or foundations, and collects indoors. When you breathe in radon, it gets into the lining of your lungs and gives off radiation. Over a long time, that can damage the cells there and lead to lung cancer.
