Abstract

The equivalent equilibrium volumetric activity of radon in dwelling houses, located in permafrost regions, equipped with the heating boilers operating on natural gas and located inside the residential sector of houses are investigated. Allocation of radon from wooden walls, other constructions of houses and underground space is improbable. Hence, high variations of volumetric concentration of radon in different houses are caused, mainly, by burning of methane. It is established that in houses equipped with heating boilers with low efficiencies or having a bad thermal insulation of walls the equivalent equilibrium volumetric activity of radon may be close to permissible level of radon concentration for buildings under construction equal to 100 Bq/m3.
