WHAT IS RADON?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that comes from the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water. It’s odourless, colourless, and invisible, which makes it impossible to detect without proper testing.
In Calgary, many homes have been found to have elevated radon levels. Health Canada recommends taking action when indoor radon levels reach 200 Bq/m³ or higher, as prolonged exposure can pose health risks to your family.
At ATMOS Radon, we help Calgary homeowners measure, mitigate, and monitor radon, ensuring your home stays safe and comfortable.
Second Leading Cause of Lung Cancer
Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in Canada, after smoking, and the leading cause among non-smokers.
Long-Term Exposure Matters
Even moderate radon exposure over many years increases the risk of lung disease, making early detection and mitigation crucial.
Invisible Health Threat
Radon is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, so you can’t detect it without testing — yet it can silently impact your family’s health.
Health Canada Action Level
Health Canada recommends homeowners take action when radon levels are 200 Bq/m³ or higher, significantly lowering long-term health risks.
