Radon Levels in Belleville: Health Risks and Study Findings

A study conducted by Hastings Prince Edward Public Health (HPEPH) from 2019 to 2020 found that 29% of homes in Belleville have radon levels above 100 Bq/m³, with 12.2% exceeding 200 Bq/m³. Radon, a colorless, radioactive gas, is the second leading cause of lung cancer in Canada. It can enter homes through soil and rock containing uranium, making radon testing essential for homeowners.
