How to reduce cancer-causing radon levels in your home
The EPA has designated this week as National Radon Awareness Week. Radon gas is the leading cause of lung cancer for non-smokers and is second only to smoking as the leading cause of lung cancer for the general population. The Surgeon General and EPA recommend radon testing for all homes. If your home’s radon level is confirmed to be 4 picocuries per liter or higher, you’ll need to take steps to reduce radon levels. The following document from the EPA shows what to look for when selecting a qualified contractor to reduce the radon levels in your home and how to determine an appropriate radon reduction method and maintain your radon reduction system.
