Content descriptions

General Note:
"Radon forms from the breakdown of uranium in the soil and enters all buildings. In enclosed spaces, such as a home, this gas can accumulate to high levels and become a health hazard. After smoking, radon is the leading cause of lung cancer in Canada and is responsible for as many as 16% of lung cancer deaths. Local residents can screen their home for radon gas by borrowing a radon digital monitor, free of charge, from their local library. These monitors allow people to explore radon 'in real time.' The screening period should be 14 days. " - instruction sheet
