Radon is an Invisible and ODORLESS RADIOACTIVE
GAS, which occurs naturally from decaying uranium underneath the
earth's surface. Though you cannot see, smell, or taste Radon,
it is there and may be a problem in your home or office. When
trapped inside an enclosed space, it can reach dangerous and
often deadly levels. Continuous inhalation of radon damages
lung tissue causing lung cancer and long-term exposure may even
cause death.
High Levels Of Radon Can Put Your Family At Risk
The United
States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that radon kills as many as 30,000 people each year. Nearly 1 in 15
homes is estimated to have elevated levels of Radon. Radon Gas
is the #1 cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers.
How Radon Gets Into Homes And Offices
The greatest
concentration of radon is usually found in the lowest level of
the homes or offices. This is because Radon is found in the soil
and rock beneath the foundation. If you have dirt floors in the
basement, cracks in the foundation, or openings from the sump
pump hole or drain, radon is likely to build up quicker and in
higher concentrations.
