Introducing the Airthings Corentium Home Digital Radon Detector

The Airthings Corentium Home Digital Radon Detector is a compact and accurate device that helps you measure the radon levels in your home. Radon is a radioactive gas that is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, making it difficult to detect without specialized equipment. Prolonged exposure to high levels of radon can increase the risk of lung cancer, making it essential to monitor radon levels in your living space. The Corentium Home Digital Radon Detector features a large, easy-to-read LCD screen that displays both short-term and long-term radon levels. The device is simple to use, with a single button for switching between measurement modes and viewing historical data. It is also easy to set up, with a battery life of up to 2 years and no maintenance required.

Getting Started

Pull battery tab
Allow for initial calibration (first indication in less than 24 hours)
Place in the lowest liveable area of your home (basement or 1st floor)
Leave undisturbed for at least 2 months to get a good indication of your radon levels*

Radon levels fluctuate constantly, it is important to continuously monitor

Everyday Use

What do my levels mean?
Radon is measured in picoCuries/Liter (pCi/L).

Higher than 4 pCi/L
POOR: Keep measuring. If levels are maintained for more than 1 month, contact a radon mitigation professional.
Between 2 and 4 pCi/L
FAIR: Keep measuring, if levels are maintained for more than 3 months, contact a radon mitigation professional.
Less than 2 pCi/L
GOOD: No action needed, continue monitoring.

Home Digital Radon Detector Placement

Place the device in living areas on lower levels, such as a basement or living room. The device should not be exposed to direct sunlight or moisture. It should be placed at least 1.5ft/50cm above the ground and at least 5ft/150cm from the nearest door, window, or air vent. Do not move the device during measurement. The screen should be facing upwards. The device can be laid flat on a surface with screen facing up (recommended) or mounted on a wall. High humidity levels (over 85%) can cause permanent damage to the device, erratic readings and/or error codes.

ACCURACY
Results are more accurate over a longer measurement period. We recommend measuring for at least 2 months for a good indication of your long term exposure.
LONG TERM VS. SHORT TERM AVERAGES
After a full 7-days of measuring your detector will start to switch from a 24 hour measurement to 7-day average every 6 seconds. The long term average is intended to identify potential health hazards, while the short term average should be used to assess the effects of radon reduction efforts, such as increased ventilation, sealing cracks, etc.
RADON REPORTS
Save historic measurements and create reports with up to a year of data using the Airthings reporting tool. Go to dashboard.airthings.com/home-report to get started.

WHY WORRY ABOUT RADON?
Radon gas is the number 1 cause of lung cancer among non-smokers and kills 6 times more people than house fires and carbon monoxide combined. The US Environmental Protection Agency recommends radon levels remain below 4 pCi/L.
