RADON: What are the Health Effects?
Radon gas contains radioactive particles that can get trapped in your lungs when you breathe.
These particles release small bursts of energy that can damage lung tissue and lead to lung cancer.
ALL major health organizations including the American Lung Association, the Center for Disease
Control and the American Medical Association agree that radon causes thousands of preventable lung
cancer deaths every year. In fact, the Surgeon General has warned that radon is the second leading
cause of lung cancer in the United States today. Only smoking causes more lung cancer deaths. If you
smoke and your home has high levels of radon, your risk of lung cancer is especially high.

What are the solutions?
Many people don't test their homes for radon because they fear they may incur a large financial
burden in order to correct the problem if they test high. In fact, most solutions are inexpensive
and most problems are relatively easy to correct.
Even in cases where radon
levels are high and mitigation is neccessary, it is relatively low in cost when compared with most
home repairs. Radon is a very real and serious threat. Make your home as safe as possible for you
and your family.
