Granite and other stones are a popular choice for countertops and other decorative features in homes. Radon gas occurs naturally in the environment, and is a natural and minor constituent of many common building materials such as concrete, brick, gypsum, and natural stone. Over 500 measurements of radon emissions from granite and other natural stone have been published in the peer reviewed scientific literature.
This white paper reviews the current scientific research in order to provide preliminary estimates of typical and upper levels of radon in indoor air of homes associated with emissions from natural stone countertops.
