Quebec Radon Map: Risk Zone Map and Complete Guide
Radon, a natural radioactive gas, is a major public health issue in Quebec. Invisible and odorless, it can accumulate in homes and increase the risk of lung cancer. Thanks to the Quebec Radon Map, it is possible to identify areas where high concentrations have been measured.
In summary: the map identifies statistical zones, but regardless of the region, all homes can have high levels of radon. Testing your home remains the only reliable method, and if levels are high, a mitigation solution exists.
Why the Quebec Radon Map is important
The Quebec Radon Map is an interactive tool developed by the Quebec Lung Association. By entering a postal code, users can consult available regional data concerning radon.
The Quebec radon map identifies risk areas, but each home is unique. Even in a low-risk area, high concentrations can be measured.
Even in a low-risk area, a home can exceed 200 Bq/m³.
👉 1 in 5 homes in Quebec is at high risk.

What is radon and why should you be concerned?
Radon comes from the natural decay of uranium in the soil. It can infiltrate buildings through foundation cracks, drains or joints. When it accumulates to high levels, it becomes a significant cause of lung cancer.
Consulting a radon map of Quebec is a first step, but it does not replace an actual test in your home. Each property is different and may have a unique level.
Some key statistics
- Approximately 1,000 deaths per year in Canada are linked to radon.
- Nearly 1 in 5 homes in Quebec exceeds 200 Bq/m³.
Home tested: 380 Bq/m³
After mitigation: 45 Bq/m³
✔ Fast and lasting reduction
✔ Installation in one day in most cases
👉 A solution exists if your level is high.
