The Facts // WHAT IT IS
Radon is a radioactive gas produced when uranium in soil and rock breaks down. It seeps up through foundations, cracks, sump pits, and crawlspaces — and concentrates inside the home.
It is invisible, odorless, and tasteless. The only way to know if a home has elevated radon is to test it.
Why It Matters // HEALTH
