Canada has some of the highest radon levels in the world and Saskatchewan is a radon hot spot! Testing your home tells you your radon level, and certified professionals can help reduce it.

Techniques to lower radon levels are effective and can save lives. Radon levels in most homes can be reduced by more than 80% for about the same cost as other common home repairs, such as replacing a furnace or air conditioner. If your radon level is 200 Bq/m³ or higher, contact a C-NRPP certified radon mitigation professional 👉 www.c-nrpp.ca.
