NEW!

• What if it isn't EMI? (Electromagnetic Interference) ScanTech can still assist in troubleshooting and discovering what is really going on due to our extensive interdisciplinary background. In many cases, the client assumes the problem is due to some external field, but the real issue can often be something unexpected and even less expensive / easier to fix than thought. A fresh insight from a highly experienced consultant can rapidly resolve your nightmare scenario at great cost savings.

• Concerned about your granite countertops or the incidents related to the reactors in Japan? ScanTech has had years of experience in this area - long before the recent concern over elevated levels of radiation and radioactivity. We have purchased new equipment so as to specifically target this issue.

• NEW INFORMATION ON HYBRIDS! We have had inquiries as to the EMF levels put out by Hybrid / Electric Vehicles. We have now actually studied hybrids for AC / DC magnetic, electric and RF fields and the results vary among year, make and model (electric or hybrid) so it may be worth getting yours tested if you are concerned. The cost is relatively inexpensive.

• New equipment has expanded our capabilities in RF and AC Electric Field measurements!

GRANITE COUNTERTOPS & RADIOACTIVITY FAQ

Q. Are granite or other natural stone countertops / tile / flooring a health hazard?

A. Possibly. (see below for more detail)

Most granite, marble and many other types of stone do contain noticeably higher levels of radiation. How much more depends on exactly how the stone was formed, where it was quarried from and the types of mineral inclusions that are present.

What constitutes a health hazard is a material with enough additional radioactivity beyond normal to elevate medical risk. To some extent this is subject to conjecture, and while ScanTech does not advocate fearmongering, we also believe that a consumer has a right to an informed choice as to what they and their familes are exposed to.

 

Q. What is background radiation?

A. Ionizing background radiation is everywhere - in the earth, from the sun, exposure to medical X-Rays, high altitude commerical flights will increase your dosage of cosmic rays, etc. Unless you want to live in a lead lined vault, you cannot reasonably get away from all forms of radiation.

 

Q. What levels are typical?

A. Normal background radiation levels vary from 0.03 - 0.26 microSieverts per hour. (a tissue radiation dosage measurement)

 

Q. What levels are dangerous?

A. From the limited research I have done, 50 milliSieverts per year is convservatively the lowest dose at which there is any discernable, elevated risk of cancer in adults. In my own NON-MEDICAL OPINION, I would consider 16 X normal background levels as being the threshold of concern.

This would translate to approximately 1.92 microSieverts per hour. In general, any radiation not used for specific and medical purposes in a controlled fashion isn't healthy, but there is the concept of comparative risk.

 

Q. How long and how much experience do have in measuring granite samples?

A. For several years I have been aware that granite had higher than normal levels. I was first hired out for a formal study a few years ago and since then I have served dozens of clients in this arena.

 

Q. What levels are you finding in granite and other natural stone samples?

A. So far I have gotten up to 0.80 microSievert per hour which is more than 3 X background. But according to others who have done more extensive studies, they are finding up to 3 % of the stone they have tested are 100 X normal. (which is well above the threshold of concern that I noted above)

 

Q. Do you consider this a reason for concern - enough to pay for a survey?

A. While the odds are against you buying a large quantity of a dangerous rock, I have found that my clientele are more than happy to pay the relatively small fee of testng in exchange for peace of mind.
