Undetectable and Deadly

It is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. It poses a danger to you and your family even at low or medium dose exposure. It is a world-wide health risk. You could be living with it in your home and not even know it. You can’t see it. You can’t smell it. You can’t taste it. Are you at risk?


Radon gas is a toxic, radioactive gas that results from decaying uranium. It is found in nearly all soil and typically moves up through the ground, into the air and your home above. It does not matter who you are, where you live or the type of home you live in. Any home has the potential to have a radon problem. Fortunately, the testing and remediation of radon gas is simple and inexpensive. The EPA provides a wealth of information about Radon Gas.

January is Radon Action Month. Learn more about it.
