Corrective Actions to Reduce Concentrations of ²²²Rn in Existing Dwellings and Other Buildings. Annex IV (Spanish Edition)

The reduction of high concentrations of ²²²Rn in existing dwellings by means of corrective actions has been demonstrated to be feasible. The corrective actions are designed either to prevent the entry of ²²²Rn from the soil into a building or to remove ²²²Rn from the building by means of improved indoor ventilation. The effectiveness of any corrective actions depends on the construction of the dwelling and the climate as well as the lifestyle of the occupants. The corrective actions have been developed for world regions with four climatically distinct seasons, and they may need to be checked to ensure that their application in other parts of the world would be appropriate
