The only way to know your level is to test, since radon cannot be seen or smelled. Below you’ll find practical, locally relevant articles to help Winnipeg homeowners understand radon, testing, mitigation, and what to do next.
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.
