Radon Emission from Renovation Materials: Granite > Tile > Concrete?...
Not all renovation materials are created equal when it comes to radon. While granite is often blamed, new data shows concrete and tile can also contribute. This post explores real emission rates and how the AEGTESTSHOP radon detector helps homeowners stay safe.
Radiation Unveiled: How Radon, X-Rays, and Cell Phones Affect Your...
Radon (radioactive gas), medical X-rays, and cell phones emit vastly different radiation types. Radon—the #2 global cause of lung cancer—seeps undetected into homes, damaging DNA via alpha particles. X-rays deliver controlled ionizing radiation for diagnostics, while cell phones pose negligible risk with non-ionizing waves. Learn critical distinctions, WHO safety thresholds (100 Bq/m³), and how AEGTESTSHOP's detectors (e.g., HOUND3699) empower prevention. Science, not fear, defeats radon.
90 Days or 7 Days? The Scientific Basis for Choosing...
Choosing between a 7-day or 90-day radon test? This article explains why the EPA recommends short-term testing for screening and long-term testing for accuracy. The AEGTESTSHOP Radon Detector offers both in one smart device.
Winter Radon Soars by 300%: How Heating Forces Poison Gas...
Winter heating can triple indoor radon levels due to the stack effect and poor ventilation. This article explains the science behind seasonal spikes and shows how the AEGTESTSHOP radon detector helps you track and mitigate the hidden danger.
Long‑Term Low‑Dose Radon Exposure: Why the “Safe Level” Isn’t Safe
Even low levels of radon exposure—like 100 Bq/m³—can significantly increase lung cancer risk over time. This article explains why so-called “safe levels” are misleading, citing new data from the European Radon Risk Committee, and highlights how the AEGTESTSHOP radon detector empowers families to monitor and mitigate exposure effectively.
