What are radon levels like in Québec?
Radon concentrations differ from house to house and region to region, but every region in Canada has some homes with high levels.
Based on Health Canada’s 2012 Cross-Canada Survey of Radon Concentrations in Homes here is a quick summary of results for the province of Québec.
- 8% of homes were above 200 Bq/m3, however some regions had up to 25% of homes above 200 Bq/m3
Remember: no matter what percentage of homes in a region test above the guideline level, it’s impossible to know what the radon level will be in any given home until it is tested. Every home needs to test!
