Don’t Assume Your Business Is Safe from Radon. Schedule Commercial Radon Testing Today.
Assess Radon Risks
The risks of radon are often overlooked in commercial environments, even though homeowners have become increasingly aware of the dangers of radon gas and made it a priority to test for radon at home. Most people spend about one third of their lifetime at work, so high indoor radon levels in the workplace can pose a significant health risk—one for which businesses and commercial property owners may be held liable.
Radon is in all air, indoors and outdoors. There is no level of radon that is considered safe.
The Goal is to Bring Indoor Radon Levels Down to the Same as Outdoor Air
Radon is everywhere, and it is in every building, even newly constructed properties. There is no known safe level of radon and you should always aim to have the lowest level.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends fixing your building if radon levels are above 4 picoCuries per liter of air (pCi/L). Therefore, commercial radon testing should be a priority for any business, school, daycare, healthcare facility, multifamily housing complex, office building, or other type of commercial property.

Why Businesses Should Prioritize Radon Testing
For some businesses, especially daycares, schools and in-home care centers, commercial radon testing is mandated by the EPA. These include nursing homes, hospitals, and schools. However, the importance of radon testing is not exclusive to these types of spaces. Radon testing shows a commitment to the safety of your employees, clients, and/or residents. Additionally, it can help you reduce potential liabilities that may come with prolonged radon exposure, such as an elevated risk of lung cancer.
Radon exposure is a significant health risk, causing around 21,000 lung cancer deaths annually in the U.S., according to the EPA. Commercial properties, such as offices, schools, and healthcare facilities, must prioritize radon testing to ensure safe indoor air quality. Regular testing and mitigation protect not only health but also help businesses comply with strict EPA and OSHA guidelines, avoiding potential legal and financial penalties. Detailed case studies, like a successful mitigation in a Grand Rapids office building, underscore the importance of these measures.

Benefits of Long-Term Commercial Radon Testing
Radon levels are not static through time. They fluctuate seasonally, becoming highest in the winter due to the stack affect, caused by the difference in ambient air temperature being colder than the air inside. During the heating months you’re overwhelming going to have higher levels of radon.
Other environmental factors can also alter radon levels, so it is important to get a broader view of radon levels over time. That’s why we typically recommend a long term radon test, which is conducted over a period of 90 days or more.
Regulations and Compliance
Commercial properties must comply with various regulations to ensure a safe environment. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) provide guidelines for acceptable radon levels in workplaces. Non-compliance can result in significant fines and legal consequences.
EPA Guidelines
The EPA recommends that action be taken to reduce radon levels in buildings that have radon concentrations at or above 4 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) of air. This guideline applies to residential, educational, and commercial properties alike. For workplaces, maintaining radon levels below this threshold is crucial to ensure the health and safety of employees and clients.
OSHA Standards
OSHA’s Ionizing Radiation standards (29 CFR 1910.1096) include regulations for protecting workers from exposure to radon and other radioactive materials. Employers are required to conduct regular radon testing, especially in areas known to have high radon levels. If elevated radon levels are detected, immediate action must be taken to mitigate the exposure.
Importance of Compliance
- Legal Obligations: Adhering to EPA and OSHA guidelines helps businesses avoid potential legal issues, fines, and sanctions. Non-compliance can lead to significant financial and reputational damage.
- Health and Safety: Ensuring that radon levels are within acceptable limits demonstrates a commitment to the health and safety of employees, clients, and visitors. This proactive approach helps prevent long-term health issues related to radon exposure.
- Risk Management: Regular radon testing and mitigation are essential components of a comprehensive risk management strategy. By identifying and addressing radon issues early, businesses can prevent potential liabilities and create a safer work environment.
