Radon Assessment in Bridgwater

In July 2024, a Radon Assessment was conducted at a school in Bridgwater to check for any potential radon gas risks. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can build up in buildings and long-term exposure can be harmful, so keeping levels in check is essential.

The results showed that radon levels were well below the legal limit, meaning there’s no immediate risk to staff or students. Readings across different classrooms and workspaces confirmed that the building maintains safe air quality. The highest recorded levels were significantly under the threshold, so no further action is required.

Even though radon levels are safe, regular testing is always a good idea, especially in areas known for potential radon build-up. Keeping an eye on ventilation and ensuring spaces remain well-aired will help maintain these safe conditions in the future.

With this assessment wrapped up, the school can confidently continue operations, knowing the air is clean and safe for everyone. A proactive approach to air quality ensures a healthy learning environment for years to come!
