Low places where there is little or no ventilation. Radon is "heavy" and can accumulate from sources in rocks or soil in locations where there is a "low place" like a crawl space or basement that has little to no air movement in the space.

The Basement, or the LOWEST LEVEL, that's why that area is remediated almost all the time. I said lowest level because some houses like Ranchers do not have a basement. With ones only containing slab on grades or crawls paces, those are the areas that will be remediated instead.

Radon is a dense gas, heavier than air, so if a house has radon in it, the radon will tend to accumulate in the basement.

Where can you obtain the best observation in your AO?

Typically, the highest point in the "Area of Operation;" "High Ground."


What layer has the highest concentration of the ozone?

The stratospheric region of atmosphere has got the highest concentration of ozone. This is due to the presence of the ozone layer there. Moreover small parts of ozone are also present in the tropospheric region but the concentration there is of the level of parts per million so it is neglected and the stratosphere is taken the area of the max concentration of ozone.
