Residential radon testing starts at $175. We offer both short-term (3-5 days) and long-term (90+ days) testing options. Commercial testing is customized based on building size and complexity.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer overall and the primary cause among non-smokers. Radioactive alpha particles from decaying radon gas damage lung cell DNA, leading to cellular mutations over years of exposure. For extensive global studies and data, review the official WHO Handbook on Indoor Radon ↗.

Health Canada has established a strict national guideline threshold of 200 Bq/m³ (becquerels per cubic metre). If your indoor testing shows levels exceeding this limit, mitigation is highly recommended to protect your family's health. Learn more about the safety limit, action timelines, and municipal policy development on the official Government of Canada Guidline ↗.

You can view the Health Canada Radon Blog and Datalab maps to see interactive radon percentages across Canada, which showcase the elevated risk profile of the Ottawa Valley and Eastern Ontario geological formations. Visit the Canada Datalab Radon Map ↗to view detailed regional statistics and visual percentages of high-radon homes.

No. Our systems are carefully designed to blend with your home's aesthetics and require only small penetrations that are professionally sealed. We paint all exterior components to match your home.

Ottawa sits on Precambrian bedrock formations containing elevated uranium levels. The Nepean sandstone and limestone common in our area naturally release more radon gas than other regions.
