Radon test kits are analysed at HPA validated laboratories
What the result indicate for a 48hr Long test
|
A result below 100 Bqm-3 |
It's unlikely the annual average radon levels exceed the action level of 200 Bqm-3.
If making an offer on the property, no radon bond is required to be implemented. |
|
A result between 100 Bqm-3 and 400 Bqm-3 |
The result indicates the safe annual average radon limit of 200 Bqm-3 could possibly be exceeded and mitigation work may subsequently be required on the property. Further long-term testing should be conducted to establish the annual average radon levels before any radon mitigation work commences.
If making an offer for the property you should implement a radon bond prior to the exchanging of contracts. |
|
A result over 400 Bq m- |
The result indicates it's likely the safe annual average radon gas levels of 200 Bqm-3 will be exceeded.
If making an offer for the property you should reduce your offer accordingly to allow for radon mitigation costs on the property. |
