Removing the Largest Contributor to Human Background Radiation, Radon Gas!
Should We Flatten the Radon Curve?

Continuous radon data will change the world of indoor air quality. In the past, “real time” Radon test equipment has been too costly for the general public. Data from charcoal tests, the industry standard for the past century, gives no information on hourly fluctuations. But with CRM (Continuous Radon Monitoring) instrument costs dropping below $200, homeowners, and test engineers, will start recording and analyzing hourly data.
The baseline is often randomized by weather variables. The bottom line: radon (from natural soil minerals commonly found throughout the globe) migrates into ground contact buildings. It is a toxic inhalation hazard that enters the bloodstream and leads to many degenerative health issues. The wide variability masks its relationship to diseases, so medical research often fails to find the cause of illness. The good news is that affordable data will bring an end to radon’s lack of detection. It’s blood borne radiation damage will be well documented, and affordable technical advances will reduce indoor exposure.
“Leapfrog MVP,” an affordable centrifugal air cleaning development, adds ionization and magnetic separation to naturally spin out heavy radon gas. Testing discovered this process also removes other contaminants (including carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, and VOCs--volatile organic compounds.) Other studies indicate the ionization process within “LEAPFROG-MVP” will kill COVID19 and other pathogens. Unlike other ionization systems that inject charged particles into breathing air, LEAPFROG immediately removes airborne ions, that can cause corrossion damage to electronics, mechanical equipment, or stress the immune system of building occupants.
