Radon Mapping Tool Launched
Radon, a tasteless, odourless, and colourless gas, is the second leading cause of lung cancer in Canada—and the leading cause for people who do not smoke!
Radon can quietly build up in your home, but you can take control. Lung Saskatchewan’s new, interactive radon web-tool helps you explore radon levels in your area, understand how your lifestyle might influence exposure, and quickly order your own test.
Features include:
- View local radon levels on an easy-to-use map
- Check your postal code for area-specific information
- Learn how time spent at home may affect exposure
- Order a home radon test quickly and easily
This tool is for informational purposes only; it cannot tell you your personal risk. The only way to know your radon level is to test your home.
