what is radon?
Radon is a cancer-causing, radioactive, poisonous gas that naturally occurs in the Earth's crust. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer. You cannot see, smell, or taste radon, but it may be a problem in your home. There are no immediate symptoms of radon exposure and it takes years for symptoms to manifest. Testing is the only way to know your home's radon levels.
