National Radon Action Month


Radon is a gas that comes from the natural decay of uranium which can be found in your water or the soil under your home. When you ingest or breathe in the particles they damage the cells in your stomach and lungs which can lead to cancer. Testing for radon is easy and inexpensive and should be done even if your home is brand new.
