Radonova

Radonova UK Radonova is a radon measurement and testing company with research laboratories based in Uppsala, Sweden. They are the premier radon measuring company, providing essential detection services in North America and Europe. What is Radon and Why is it Dangerous? Radon is a radioactive noble gas that is produced by decaying radium. It is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. After tobacco use, radon is the biggest cause of lung cancer in the US, but symptoms may not develop for years after exposure. Miners and people who work in basements or cellars for extended periods of time are also at a heightened risk of developing cancer from radon. That's why the work that Radonova does in the US and the UK is so important - it helps keep people safe and healthy, while helping businesses, local authorities, and families make sure that their exposure to radon is within acceptable levels. Who are Radonova Radonova was formerly known as Landauer Radon, Inc. in the US and Landauer Nordic in the UK until May 2017. Providing radon detectors and radon test kits to private and commercial premises, they are an IS0 17205-accredited company, which demonstrates their competence in carrying out calibration tests and measurements. They also supply copies of radon testing reports and provide insight into what the results behind each test mean. Residential Radon Testing and Reporting Radonova offers residential radon testing to help identify whether a dangerous amount of radon is found within the home. Short- and long-term tests are available to track the levels of radon over time, from as little as ten days up to a whole year. The staff at Radonova can then advise on what steps to take to lessen the risk. In the UK, Radonova works with local authorities and councils, as well as housing associations and private landlords, to provide radon testing services as required by law. If the testing finds that radon levels exceed 200 Bq/m3, Radonova's experts can offer advice and assistance with removing traces of this dangerous element. Commercial Radon Testing and Reporting For commercial premises, such as offices and schools, Radonova provides test kits, detectors, and helpful remedial action to reduce the amount of radon as well as the risk to occupants' health. This is especially important if part of the building is underground and is in use throughout the year, as this raises the risk of radon-related illnesses such as cancer. For UK offices and other non-residential locations, the radon testing performed by Radonova ensures that you remain compliant with the standards set out in the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, which states that employers must perform risk assessments for radon levels if the premises are in what the Health and Safety Executive calls a ""Radon Affected Area"".
