What's New

January is National Radon Action Month

Radon is a silent intruder that you cannot see or smell, but can build up at dangerous levels in your home. Radon exposure is the leading cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers in America, claiming the lives of over 21,000 people a year. Nearly all high-level exposure to radon is preventable. If high levels of radon are detected in your home, steps can be taken to protect you and your family.

There is no known safe level of radon in your home; however, risks can be reduced if high levels are detected. Solutions can range from as simple as sealing cracks in your foundation to as complex as a soil suction radon reduction system. This month, put testing your home for radon at the top of your to-do list and make sure you check it off! It's easy, and test kits are widely available.
