What is Radon?

Radon is a naturally occurring gas that’s odorless, colorless, and tasteless.

It’s also radioactive, and forms when uranium breaks down in the earth. The combination of these factors is what makes radon a health hazard.

Radon can enter your home through cracks and openings in foundations, walls, and pipes. If the gas is not properly vented outside, it can build up to levels that become dangerous to your health.

Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the US, according to data from the EPA. If radon is concentrated in your home at levels above 4 pCi/L, you need to remediate the issue and mitigate buildup over the long-term.
