Radon testing in Sept-Îles: what matters here

During long winters, windows stay shut and the house draws more air from the soil. That's exactly the ideal time for a long-term test.

Gulf winds reveal every sealing defect. Winter thermography shows air leaks, and attic condensation is a frequent finding.

Radon testing: what the inspector checks in Sept-Îles

Health Canada recommends measuring radon for at least three months, ideally during the cold season, when the house is closed up and radon builds up more. A measurement lasting a few days only gives an indication.

In Sept-Îles homes, the inspector uses thermography to find air leaks exploited by Gulf winds. They also look for attic condensation, common in this climate.
