What is radon gas and how does it get into my home?

Radon is a radioactive gas that forms naturally in the earth and can pose a significant health risk when concentrated in buildings. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, estimated to cause about 21,000 lung cancer deaths each year.

Radon can enter homes through cracks in the foundation, gaps around pipes, and even through well water. The only way to know if your home has elevated levels of radon is to test for it. If high levels are detected, it's important to install a radon mitigation system to reduce the risk.
