Let’s face it — indoor air quality isn’t something we think much about…until it’s a problem. The trouble is that certain types of indoor air quality problems aren’t detectable at all (even though they are could be causing a BIG problem for your health).
Radon IS one of those problems.
It’s colourless, odorless, and tasteless so unless you specifically test for it, you won’t know you if you are one of the 7% of Canadian homes that contain dangerous levels of radon. It’s responsible for an estimated 3,200 deaths every year in Canada. The government of Canada recommends taking steps to mitigate radon in your home if the levels exceed 200 becquerels per metre cubed (bq/m3)
That’s why our favourite Celebrity Contractor and All-Round Good Guy, Mike Holmes, and his son, Mike Holmes Jr., are teaming up with Radon Environmental Management to talk all things indoor air quality Thursday, November 2nd at 7pm EST for the #ChatAirAware Twitter Party!
