In the United States, radon is the #2 cause of lung cancer after smoking and it is estimated to cause over 20,000 deaths each year.
WHAT IS RADON? Radon is an odorless and invisible radioactive gas naturally released from rocks, soil, and water. In outdoor environments, radon levels are very low and generally not considered harmful.
HOW DOES IT GET IN A HOME? Radon can get into homes or buildings through small cracks or holes and build up to higher levels. Over time, breathing in high radon levels can cause lung cancer.
That’s why it’s so important for every home to get tested. Call us to schedule an appointment - 828-242-7687.
