Radon testing and mitigation options for homes and building projects in Ottawa and surrounding communities.
Reduce elevated levels
Explore mitigation options, including systems that draw soil gas from beneath the home and vent it outdoors. The approach is selected for the building and its test results.
Plan ahead for your project
Building a new home, finishing a basement or managing a commercial property? Bring radon into the planning conversation early, with testing and mitigation scoped for the building.

A few things to know.
What is radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas released from soil and rock. It can collect indoors, and you cannot see or smell it. Testing is how you find out the level in your home.
How long does a home test take?
Health Canada recommends a long-term test lasting 3 to 12 months, including at least 91 days during the heating season. A brief reading does not establish the annual average.
What if my result is elevated?
Health Canada recommends reducing radon when the long-term result is above 200 Bq/m³. Your result and building assessment guide the next steps; follow-up testing checks how the system performs.
Can I plan for radon in a new build?
Yes. Discuss radon planning early so the foundation and mechanical work can be coordinated. The design and applicable requirements depend on the project, and testing after occupancy remains important.
How do I get started?
Request a radon consultation and tell us whether you need testing, have an existing result or are planning construction. We’ll confirm the service arrangements, scope and pricing for your project.
Health Canada recommends using C-NRPP-certified radon professionals. Read Health Canada’s home testing guidance or learn about C-NRPP certification.
