Case Study: Château des ducs de Bretagne protects visitors and staff from radon with Airthings wireless monitoring

Château Des Ducs De Bretagne protects 1.4 million visitors with Airthings

The Château des ducs de Bretagne, a historic castle monument, faced a serious challenge with elevated radon gas levels due to its granite construction and location. This posed a risk to its 80 employees and over 1.4 million annual visitors. The building technician, Sébastien Loiret, sought a robust monitoring solution from vendor Airthings that could work within the constraints of a protected historical site where drilling was not permitted.

Airthings provided a wireless sensor solution that was seamlessly installed without damaging the ancient walls. Thirteen sensors were distributed across offices and public areas. The results provided data-driven peace of mind through centralized dashboards for real-time monitoring by management and easy access for employees to check their specific work zones. This allowed the château to preserve its 500-year-old history while ensuring the safety of the people within it.
