Radon is an odorless, tasteless, and colorless contaminant found in varying levels in groundwater and well water across Finland.
The quality requirement limit for radon is 1000 Bq/l, with a recommended guideline of 300 Bq/l.
Radon in drinking water exposes the digestive system to radiation, posing a cancer risk. Radon can also evaporate from water into the air, such as during boiling, showering, or using washing machines.
