🏀Radon Is the “Slam Dunk” of Air Quality Monitoring I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with Simon Jones on the “Air Quality Matters” podcast. During our chat, Simon Jones shared an unforgettable gem from James McGrath: ☢️“Radon should be an absolute slam dunk when it comes to air quality monitoring… There are very few things that we can monitor on a continuous basis that are so specifically understood, Radon! We know its source, we can measure it precisely, and there’s a clear link between high levels and serious health outcomes. From all the things you can do in your built environment to protect your health, there’s no better slam dunk than measuring radon and taking action if it’s high.” Why is this perspective a game-changer? Because most other air quality metrics (PM, VOCs, CO2) are often proxies, we might know something is there, but not exactly what. Radon, on the other hand, is unmistakable and directly measurable. That’s why at Airthings we’re all about giving you a direct line to actionable insights. If you’ve been postponing that radon test, consider this your friendly PSA: It’s time to take the slam dunk seriously. Measure, monitor, and breathe easy! 😮💨 🎧 Catch the podcast here: https://lnkd.in/dvKTEpwr 🏃🏼Perfect for a long run to the Airthings X Strava Challenge: https://lnkd.in/dTqZJwdd #AirQualityMatters #Radon #IndoorAirQuality #HealthyBuildings #Airthings Julie G.
