"Best radon detector" has about 390 searches per month in Canada, with a difficulty of 9. The site ranks around 14th<\/sup> place. The comparison of construction site devices does not answer a homeowner's question: which test to buy for the house.<\/p>
The criterion is duration<\/h2>
A device that shows a number in ten minutes does not describe the home's exposure. Radon varies with heating, wind, and windows. The right detector is the one left in place long enough, then read by a laboratory.<\/p>
Two tests cover the two needs:<\/p>
- The 4-day test<\/a> detects quickly, for example before a transaction. Price shown on the page: $74.72 taxes included, consisting of the detector at $39.99, return and laboratory at $25, plus taxes.<\/li>
- The 91-day test<\/a> remains during the normal life of the house. Same all-inclusive price: $74.72 taxes included. This is the figure to compare to the 200 Bq\/m³ threshold of Health Canada.<\/li> <\/ul>
Where to place it<\/h2>
On the lowest floor you occupy, in a living room, away from a window and a heating vent. For the 4-day test, keep windows closed as much as possible. For the 91-day test, live normally.<\/p>
After the result<\/h2>
Below 200 Bq\/m³, you have a measurement. Above, the next step is a mitigation installation<\/a>, not another gadget. The standard installation is $2,799.99 + taxes, price confirmed before work.<\/p>
- The 91-day test<\/a> remains during the normal life of the house. Same all-inclusive price: $74.72 taxes included. This is the figure to compare to the 200 Bq\/m³ threshold of Health Canada.<\/li> <\/ul>
