Radon testing in Chambly: what matters here
Older homes often have cracked foundations, incomplete slabs or open sumps, all entry routes for radon. A long-term test is all the more relevant.
The stone walls of older homes breathe, and insulating them from the inside carelessly can trap moisture. Thermography and a moisture meter help verify the results of past renovations.
Radon testing: what the inspector checks in Chambly
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 stone walls insulated from inside, the inspector measures moisture and looks for signs of condensation behind finishes. In suburban homes, thermography reveals losses through windows and the attic instead.
