Radon >Detecting Elevated Radon Levels
Radon gas is a colorless, odorless, radioactive gas that can pose a
serious health risk if it becomes trapped under your house. Radon
typically enters the home via underground crawl spaces, sump pumps,
gaps in the basement and even the water supply. It can pollute your
indoor air with its toxic vapors, and is held responsible for more than
20,000 lung-disease-related deaths every year. Radon is assumed to be
present in millions of American homes.
How do you detect the presence of radon gas, and how can you reduce its
presence and influence if it is found in your home? First, have your
home tested by a professional. Many contractors are licensed or
certified by state and/or local agencies. They will conduct diagnostic
testing to determine if radon gas is at acceptable levels. If levels
are dangerous, the contractor can install a radon reduction system. Ask
the contractor for references documenting the results of past work in
other homes. Make sure the company checks the house after the system is
installed, to verify that it is reducing the radon levels.
