Indoor radon gas is a national health problem. The EPA estimates 21,000 deaths a year from lung cancer are radon related. Approximately 6 million U.S. homes are projected to have radon concentrations above the EPA guidelines of 4 pCi/L. Homes should be tested for elevated levels of radon, and properly mitigated if radon levels exceed the limit of 4 pCi/L. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that exists in rocks and soil underneath a home, which is tasteless, odorless, and colorless. The radon migrates through the soil and into a home through cracks in the foundation, water wells, sump pits, and from outside pressures on the home.
