What is Radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring gas from the decay of Uranium in nearly all of Earth's soils. Radon is everywhere, including the area of Gainesville, Georgia. As a Class A carcinogen, a significant amount of Radon exposure can cause lung cancer. According to the EPA, radon is estimated to cause approximately 21,000 lung cancer deaths per year in the U.S. and about 800 deaths per year in the state of Georgia.
How often should radon testing be done?
The EPA recommends performing a radon test every 2 years. Every type of building should be regularly inspected for radon, including homes, offices, and schools. The greatest exposure to you and your family is most likely at home where you spend a significant amount of your time.
