RADON TESTING
What is Radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas, and the leading cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers. Most people receive their greatest exposure to radon in their homes.
Radon is tasteless, colorless, odorless and is produced by the decay of uranium.
Radon is found in most soils and can enter your home through cracks in the foundation.
Inhaling Radon particles can damage lung tissue and lead to lung cancer over time.
