Penticton sits between Okanagan and Skaha Lakes in the South Okanagan, with neighbourhoods from the Naramata Bench and Wiltse to Columbia, Uplands, and Sendero Canyon. As part of the high-radon BC Interior, Penticton homes rest on soils that release radon, and BC CDC and Interior Health data place the wider region among those with a large share of homes above Health Canada's 200 Bq/m³ action level. Testing is the only reliable way to know your home's level.
Why Penticton homes should test for radon
Penticton's housing ranges from established homes near the lakes to newer hillside developments above the city, and all of them sit on Interior geology that produces radon. Basements, crawlspaces, and lower levels are the usual collection points. Because radon cannot be seen or smelled, a measurement is the only way to find it.
Radon testing in Penticton
We offer certified measurement for a clear Bq/m³ number. Interior Health provides free test kits across the South Okanagan as a first step, and we can follow with certified testing and a mitigation plan if your reading is high. See Radon Testing.
Radon mitigation in Penticton
If your Penticton home tests above the action level, we install an Active Soil Depressurization system, usually in a single day, and re-test to confirm radon is below 200 Bq/m³. Most systems run $2,500 to $3,500, about $3,000 on average. See the cost guide and Radon Mitigation.
