Why should you pay for a radon test?

Radon

For those who do not know, Radon is a colorless gas, which is radioactive, and is the second main cause of cancer in the USA today, the first is smoking. Radon is undetectable to the human nose as it has no odor, and as mentioned above, is colorless making it invisible to the human eye. If you are a smoker, then you are at risk and exposed to higher levels of radon in the atmosphere, and whoever lives in the home with you have an increased risk of lung cancer.

Here’s the thing, even if you are not a smoker, there is still a possible risk of radon poisoning. Radon is formed by natural breakdown of soil, as a result, the uranium in the broken down soil produces the emissions of radon gas. The radon gas can easily pass into both well-water systems, and enter the house through cracks in the foundation.
