David Smith of David Smith Radon Remedies in Bloomington, IL talks about how critical it is to test your home and work space for the presence of radon.

Radon gas is invisible and odorless. It seeps from the earth into buildings where people breathe it. The process of decay causes radioactive energy to damage cells and ultimately potentially lead to lung cancer. Every world health organization agrees that radon is the number one cause of lung cancer in non-smokers.

Radon is present in new buildings, old buildings, drafty buildings, and airtight buildings. It is even present in buildings where a radon mitigation system is installed but not functioning properly. Concentrations differ with the seasons and weather patterns. There is no way to tell that your air is free of dangerous radon gas unless you test and testing over a longer period tends to give more accurate results.

In this video, David shares some of common tests in the market today, explaining how they work and the next steps to take if you discover that you have a radon problem.

Licensed mitigators have the training and skills to successfully mitigate radon. If you find you have a radon problem, reach out to a local radon mitigator to help make the air you breathe safe for you and your family, your colleagues and employees.
