What if there is Radon
in my home?
Radon is an odorless, colorless, radioactive gas. Radon
has been found in homes all over the world. It comes from
the natural breakdown of uranium found in the soil and
moves up through the ground nding its way through tiny
cracks and holes in the foundation of a home.
Any home can have radon. You can only nd the radon
level in your home by testing. Numerous studies have
shown that continued exposure to elevated levels of radon
gas increases the chance of developing lung cancer.
The Environmental Protection Agency and the American
Lung Association agree that long term exposure to elevated
levels of radon gas is a signicant health risk.
The EPA has set a national action level of 4 pCi/L
(picoCuries of radon per liter of air).
If your home has a conrmed radon level of 4 pCi/L or
above in a living area, you should install a radon mitigation
system. It is recommended that a certied or state licensed
radon mitigation contractor install the system.
