Radon Testing
Mid-Cape Home Inspection’s continuous radon monitor, a Sun Nuclear mod#1029, is one of the most accurate and reliable radon measurement devices used today. The radon monitor is a patented electronic detection device used for the measurement of radon gas. It is twice as sensitive as most radon monitors providing selectable test increments as low as half an hour.
In addition, it is even more impressive with environmental sensors checking temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity and movement for monitoring closed building conditions and to detect tampering.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has affirmed that continuous radon monitors provide accurate results in radon measurement, even at very low levels. The EPA also notes that continuous monitors require skilled operators, annual calibration and bi-annual cross-checks. Continuous radon monitors are precision instruments that serve as the yardstick against which all other radon devices are measured.
According to the National Academy of Science’s 1998 BEIR VI Report, between 15,000 and 22,000 estimated deaths are attributed to radon.
