2. Radon mitigation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radon_mitigation

   Retesting is specifically recommended in several situations. Measurements between 4 and 10 pCi/L (148 and 370 Bq/m 3) warrant a follow-up short-term or long-term radon test before mitigation. Measurements over 10 pCi/L (370 Bq/m 3) warrant only another short-term test (not a long-term test) so that abatement measures are not unduly delayed.

   The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) recommends action for any house with a concentration higher than 8 pCi/L (300 Bq/m 3). The United States Environmental Protection Agency recommends action for any house with a concentration higher than 148 Bq/m 3 (given as 4 pCi/L). Nearly one in 15 homes in the U.S. has a ...

   The actionable concentration of radon in a home varies depending on the organization doing the recommendation, for example, the EPA encourages that action be taken at concentrations as low as 74 Bq/m 3 (2 pCi/L), [72] and the European Union recommends action be taken when concentrations reach 400 Bq/m 3 (11 pCi/L) for old houses and 200 Bq/m 3 ...

6. Health effects of radon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_effects_of_radon

   In the US, radon concentrations are often measured in picocuries per liter (pCi/L), with 1 pCi/L = 37 Bq/m 3. [5] The mining industry traditionally measures exposure using the working level (WL) index, and the cumulative exposure in working level months (WLM): 1 WL equals any combination of short-lived 222 Rn progeny (218 Po, 214 Pb, 214 Bi ...

7. Indoor air quality - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indoor_air_quality

   Radon is measured in picocuries per liter of air (pCi/L) or becquerel per cubic meter (Bq m-3). Both are measurements of radioactivity. The World Health Organization (WHO) sets the ideal indoor radon levels at 100 Bq/m-3. [97] In the United States, it is recommend to fix homes with radon levels at or above 4 pCi/L.
