LEX Scientific Inc. offers inexpensive, reliable and easy to use long-term and short-term radon gas detectors. Our detectors are sold individually, in packs of two, or in bulk depending on your requirements, and we ship nationwide.
LONG-TERM RADON GAS TEST KITLong-term tests, like our RSKS Radon Alpha Track Detector, are performed for a minimum of 90 days during the winter when houses are sealed up and radon concentrations are at their highest. Because radon levels fluctuate a lot day to day and season to season, a long-term test is recommended to determine if there is a high average radon concentration in your home or workplace. The long-term test will yield results that can be compared to the 200 Bq/m3 yearly exposure guideline set by Health Canada to help you determine if there is a need to mitigate. |
SHORT-TERM RADON GAS TEST KITShort-term tests, like our E-Perm® System radon detector, are performed over the course of 2-10 days. Short-term radon tests can be useful to get a preliminary idea of radon levels present in a home, or to provide short-term confirmation of the efficacy of a new radon mitigation system. While Health Canada recommends a long-term radon test to determine the need to mitigate, a short-term test can help you make an early determination if an extremely high radon level is found. |
