The 1st Canadian AARST- NRPP Certified Radon Chamber.

Your Trusted Partner for Quality Assurance and C-NRPP / NRPP certification requirements.

To Radon Measurement / Mitigation Professionals and Radon Analytical Laboratories, the Radiation Safety Institute of Canada National Laboratory, located in Saskatoon, offers its expert Radon Chamber services. Registered professionals need to make certain that their Quality Assurance (QA) process is effective. Annual equipment tests ensure that the instruments are performing well. Proper QA is also essential for C-NRPP and NRPP re-certification. With our expert radon chamber services it is easy to satisfy C-NRPP and NRPP certification requirements and stay on top of the internal QA process.

Team

Our radon chamber, designed with the input from the world leading radon experts, is the only AARST-NRPP certified walk-in chamber in Canada. With over 20 years of experience in the field, Brian Bjorndal MSc, Manager of our National Laboratories, is responsible for the chamber operations. He is supported by a highly technical team of professionals, together they offer a wide range of performance testing, continuous radon monitor (CRM) calibrations and spike testing of passive devices.

Process

In the chamber, the instruments are exposed for a predetermined time and the measured radon concentrations compared against our reference system. Unless otherwise requested, we ran the tests at ambient temperature and humidity. These conditions can be changed upon request.

Choosing to work with the Canadian radon chamber, in addition to our professional and reliable service, you also benefit from up to 60% in savings compared to international providers*.

Calibration Verification and Efficiency Determination of Continuous Radon Monitors (CRM)

In accordance with the C-NRPP quality assurance requirements CRMs should be tested once a year. An annual performance test ensures your CRM is working properly and provides confidence that you are providing your clients with accurate test results and advice. Annual performance tests also protect radon measurement professionals from unnecessary liabilities. To confirm and/or determine the calibration of continuous radon monitors the devices are exposed to a predetermined radon concentration. CRMs that agree with our reference system, within +/-25%, are considered to be operating properly. Instruments that fail the performance test are tested a second time to confirm the results. Verification report will be issued to the client upon test completion; verification sticker will be affixed to the monitor.
