Measurements of 222Rn in water and indoor airborne 222Rn originating in water
Description
Results are reported from studies on domestic water as a contributor to indoor airborne radon-222. Emphasis is placed on the water → air → respiration pathway. Radon is somewhat soluble in water, but it will readily enter the air upon heating, agitation, or aeration, conditions which typically exist in household uses of water
