Radon, a colorless and odorless radioactive gas, can build up inside a home if left untreated and pose serious health risks. Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers and is responsible for about 21,000 lung cancer deaths every year. The only way to know if radon is present in your home is to test for it.
Testing for radon is easy and inexpensive. Contact your state or Tribal radon program to learn more about radon services in your area.
