What is Radon
It is a cancer-causing radioactive gas. It can not be seen, smelled or tasted. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Children maybe more at risk due to their higher respiration rate and their rapid cell growth. Smokers are also at a greater risk.

It is a fact from the Surgeon General and the US EPA that as many as 20,000 lung cancer deaths are caused a year in the US. Homes checked by the US EPA found that nearly 1 in 3 homes had levels over 4pCi/L. This is 35 times as much radiation as the Nuclear Regulatory Commission would allow if a family was next to the fence of a radio active waste site.

Exposure comes from breathing and ingesting. Radon in the ground, ground water, or building materials enters working and living spaces and disintegrates into its decay products. Although in the groundwater and may expose us to radon by ingestion. It is the radon released from the water that is most important.

Radon has been found in every
State at elevated levels. The US EPA estimates there are 8 million homes throughout the US with elevated levels.

There are NO symptoms that will alert you to radon gas. It is recommended by the US EPA, Surgeon General, American Lung Association, American Medical Association and the National Safety Council to test your home. Testing is the ONLY way to know. Evan at the 4pCi/l action level radon carries approximately 1000 times the risk of death as any other carcinogen. Most Important the action level is not a SAFE level. AS THERE ARE NO SAFE LEVELS OF RADON GAS.
