Summary

Describes an evaluation of air cleaning as a means of mitigating the risks arising from exposure to indoor radon progeny in a single-family house in the north eastern USA using an automated, semi-continuous activity-weighted size distribution measurement system. The measurements included radon concentration, condensation nuclei count and activity weighted size distribution of radon decay products. Measurements were made with and without an operating air filtration system and with various particle sources common to normal activities operating. Presents the findings in some detail and assesses them.
