Radon testing

Radon Gas Testing

What is radon?
Radon is a cancer-causing radioactive gas. You cannot see, smell or taste radon, but it may be a problem in your home. The Surgeon General has warned that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States today. If you smoke and your home has high radon levels, you're at high risk for developing lung cancer. Some scientific studies of radon exposure indicate that children may be more sensitive to radon. This may be due to their higher respiration rate and their rapidly dividing cells, which may be more vulnerable to radiation damage.

The following video will show you the importance of testing for Radon gas. The video will also show you why it is important to choose an Inspector that uses the best equipment available. Choosing an Inspector who uses canisters available at a do it yourself center does not have your best interest in mind. Contact us today so we can properly test your home and provide peace of mind when the radon levels are low, or we can recommend how to properly mitigate high levels of radon to reduce the possibility of your family developing lung cancer.
