    The maximum tpma (out) must be under 33.5 degrees Celsius and indoor temperature of 31% of the tpma (out) plus 21.3 degrees Celsius. For example, the tpma (out) 33.5 degrees Celsius, the indoor temperature shall not be over 31.7 degrees Celsius.

    This means that a person living in an average European dwelling with 50 Bq/m 3 has a lifetime excess lung cancer risk of 1.53 × 10 −3. Similarly, a person living in a dwelling with a high radon concentration of 1000 Bq/m 3 has a lifetime excess lung cancer risk of 3–6%, implying a doubling of background lung cancer risk. [63]
