Breathe easy knowing your home is free from radon

Protect
Your Family

Element 86 is your complete radon solution. We carry out tests to see if radon is present in your home. If we find levels of radon that are above acceptable levels, we can develop and implement a plan that will stop the gas getting in.

Using only state-of-the-art testing equipment, our Device Technicians will safely test the air in your home and Element 86 founder Dr. Joseph Hayward will analyze the readings before preparing a full report on the findings. If the readings are above the acceptable limits, we’ll recommend the appropriate next steps to make your home safe.

We also design custom solutions – because every home is different – and carry out the work. So your safety is in our hands every step of the way.

Frequently asked
Questions

What is Radon Gas?

Radon is a radioactive gas. You cannot see, smell, or taste the gas. This means it can be in your home without you knowing. It enters properties through cracks in foundations and other structural gaps. The Canadian government estimates that almost 7% of homes in the country have unsafe levels of radon.

What You Need To Know About Radon And Your Home?

Despite campaigns by the Canadian government and various health organizations, the danger of radon is sadly not as widely known as it should be. Element 86 wants you to have all of the facts so that you have a clear understanding of the dangers posed by radon – and of the options you have to make sure you and your family are safe.

Why is radon dangerous?

Radon is second only to smoking as Canada’s leading cause of lung cancer. It is released by the natural breakdown of minerals in the earth. Outdoors, it is mostly harmless, but in enclosed spaces it can be extremely dangerous. This is because you and your family could be unknowingly breathing in high levels of radon. Radon can enter your lungs and damage the cells. When damaged, the cells in your lungs could develop cancer.

Does every home have a radon problem?

No. But the only way to know for sure is to test for the presence of radon.
