Residents of Terrace are invited to protect their health by testing their homes for radon this winter by participating in the 100 Radon Test Kit Challenge, a program run by Take Action On Radon.

A free online Radon Information Session is being offered for anyone interested in learning more about the health risks of radon and a limited number of free radon home test kits are also available. The information session will cover the health effects of radon, why it’s a concern, and what Health Canada recommends for homeowners.

Radon Information Session:
Wednesday, October 28
7 pm
Online

Radon test kits will be available to pick up after the information session from October 29-November 6 from the Terrace Public Library.

Sign up now to reserve a spot and a test kit! Details at https://www.terrace.ca/discover-terrace/events/calendar/radon-information-session
