When spring arrives in the northern hemisphere, it traditionally means that radon testing season is coming to an end.
But the research titled “Radon exposure is rising steadily within the modern North American residential environment and is increasingly uniform across seasons” published in the Nature’s Scientific Reports indicates that every season may be radon testing season. Their study sugge
May is always Radonova’s busiest period. This year, the world's leading radon laboratory broke records in the number of detectors processed. During a single week in May, Radonova handled approximately 34,000 received detectors. After a couple of years where the pandemic limited the ability to measure for radon, there is now great global demand for radon measurements.

A growing body of scientific evidence indicates that the air within your home and workplace can be more polluted than the outdoor air of the industrial cities.
Every May since 1972, the American Lung Association has sponsored Clean Air Month. This awareness month not only celebrates the achievements and advances in air quality since the passage of the Clean Air Act, but also educates people abo
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 no risk. However, when it rises in poorly ventilated i
Radonova has added EcoQube, developed by Ecosense, Inc., to its world leading radon measurement product suite in the United States. EcoQube is an affordable measuring instrument for residential use to measure continuously fluctuating radon levels during the day or night. EcoQube provides customers with real-time insights into hourly fluctuations of radon levels. This is not possible with other co
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.

Radonova – the global leader in radon measurement – has brought the more accurate Radtrak³ alpha track radon detector to Canada and the United States. The Radtrak³ is significantly smaller, which simplifies both deployment and shipping. Plus, with its reusable plastic components, this new detector is the most sustainable in the world!
The Radtrak³ has officially launched in North America, repla
In Spring 2021, Radonova launched the latest version of its most popular global radon detector, Radtrak³. Radtrak³ is smaller than its predecessor, which simplifies both the deployment and delivery process. The smaller size and the ability to reuse plastic components also makes it more environmentally friendly.
Radtrak³ is now approved for use in Germany, United Kingdom and Switzerland as an of
An extensive study conducted at the University of Calgary and published in the scientific nature journal Scientific Reports, shows significant differences between Sweden and Canada in relation to radon levels in houses built in 1980 and later. A team of architects, radon experts and cancer researchers have found that the average radon gas levels in new homes is 467% higher in Canada than in Sweden
