Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive invisible gas that is present in virtually every home in the U.S. You can’t smell or taste radon, and it is the #1 source of lung cancer in non-smokers, causing more than 20,000 deaths per year. About one in every fifteen U.S. homes has Unsafe Radon Gas Levels. In addition, an enormous number of homes trap unhealthy amounts of radon gas that unsuspecting homeowners and their families breathe in. Businesses as well can be effected.
Radon is present in the soil and rocks around and beneath your home. It is not only hazardous to your health causing damage to your lungs though the air you breathe, but also causes a risk in the water supply for those homes with private wells. Radon can be an issue in all types of homes: new & old, finished and unfinished basements, heavily sealed and drafty. Radon enters your home through cracks and gaps in floors & walls. While problems are more concentrated in some areas, any home can have a problem, and Radon Testing is the only way for you to know for sure. The average indoor radon level is approximately 1.3 pCi/L, and about 0.4 pCi/L in outside air. Homes that test at 4.0 pCi/L or higher need to be fixed.
The Surgeon General, American Lung Association and EPA recommend that everyone test their home and working environment. It’s safe, easy and you can do it yourself. The good news is that if you have a radon problem, it can be fixed. Do not delay any further.
