Radon is a naturally occurring, radioactive gas found in soil and rock. It seeps into homes through the foundation “cracks/ joints in concrete slabs, concrete blocks, exposed soil, sump crocks”, and gets into the air you breathe. Radon comes from the natural decay/ breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water. Radon can contaminate any type of building- homes, offices, and schools. You and your family are most likely to get your greatest exposure at home, where you spend most of your time.
As the temperatures drop, families spend more time indoors when the indoor radon levels are at their highest. It is a good idea to have your home tested for this lung cancer-causing radon gas.
