A radon measuring device or radon monitor is an essential tool for determining the radon concentration indoors. Radon, a radioactive noble gas, is produced by the decay of uranium in the ground and can enter buildings through cracks or leaks. As radon is harmful to health and increases the risk of lung cancer in the long term, regular measurement is important, especially in regions with high radon levels. There are different types of radon measuring devices: Passive devices, such as alpha track detectors or activated carbon containers, are suitable for long-term measurements over weeks or months. These provide an average value and are easy to use.
An active radon measuring device, on the other hand, such as an electronic radon monitor, enables real-time measurements and provides detailed analyses of the radon concentration. The placement of the measuring device is crucial. It should be positioned in occupied rooms such as the living room or bedroom, away from windows, doors and vents. Measurements over at least three months are recommended, as radon concentrations can fluctuate greatly. For precise results and protective measures in the event of increased radon exposure, professional advice should be sought.
