I just spent the last 8 years working in the basement full time only to discover this week that the levels of Radon gas are at 248ppm which is 48 above the Canadian safety limit of 200. I have to install an air exchanger to mix the radon polluted air with fresh air. At higher levels, you need to take more measures. I'm getting my lungs checked next week as a precautionary measure.
If you work or live in a basement (half-basement) do the radon test. This has nothing to do with the age of the house. It is the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers. If you are a smoker and live in an environment with high radon levels you are doubly at risk.
