What is Radon
Radon is a radioactive gas that comes from the breakdown of naturally occurring uranium in soil and rock. It is invisible, odorless and tasteless, and can only be detected by specialized tests. Radon enters homes through openings that are in contact with the ground, such as cracks in the foundation, small openings around pipes, and sump pits. It is the leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Test Your Home!
Testing your home for radon is easy and homes with high levels of radon can be fixed (mitigated). The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection recommends that all homes be tested for radon. A buyer must hire a certified business to conduct a radon test.
