What is Radon?
According to the EPA, National Academy of Sciences and the World Health Organization, Radon accounts for over 20,000 lung-cancer related deaths in the United States each year. In fact, radon accounts for more lung-cancer related deaths than secondhand smoke. Radon’s most dangerous attribute is its subtlety. Colorless, odorless, and chemically inert, elevated radon levels will go undetected in nearly 1 of every 15 homes in the U.S. While most folks are aware of the damaging effects of radiation, few realize that as much as 55% of a person’s total radiation exposure comes from radon gas and its damaging decay products.
Radon & Well Water
Central PA is home to some of the highest radon levels in the nation (see PA Radon Level Map). While correcting a radon issue is a relatively easy fix, few homeowners realize they have an issue until they are in the throes of a home transaction. Fewer still consider testing their private drinking supply. In addition to radon entering a home through the foundation, radon mixes easily with water and may also enter through private wells.
