Radon

What is radon?

Radon is a colorless and odorless radioactive gas that is emitted from soil by the decay of uranium and radium, both naturally and commonly occurring elements in the earth.  Radon is found in all parts of the country and enters houses and buildings through the ground.  Under certain conditions, it can build up to high levels that may be harmful to breathe.

If you are concerned about radon you can have the home tested.  These tests are time consuming and expensive but may offer peace of mind.  Make sure and tell Sharon if this is a concern of yours.
