January is Radon Action Month!

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has no color, odor or taste, and comes from the natural breakdown of uranium in soil. Soil under the home releases radon, which escapes to the air, where it can dissolve in water and accumulate in your well. 

Radon can be inhaled when it is released from water while showering, washing dishes or cooking. It also can be ingested directly through drinking water. Inhaled radon is of greatest concern as it increases the risk of lung cancer. 

Radon exposure is completely preventable. Learn more about radon here. Find a certified lab in your area. Try ETR Labs for both air and water radon testing.
