Does Your New Home Have Radon?

Many new construction homes have higher levels of Radon Gas than homes built before 1999. 

• Older homes tend to be less insulated than newly build more economical homes. This lack of insulation lowers levels of Radon that gets trapped within the home.
• New houses are built to be energy efficient, and while they successfully keep hot and cold air inside, they also harbor high levels of Radon.
• Radon comes from depleted uranium and naturally seeps through rocks and soil into the basement of the home like a vacuum. 
• Radon is not a danger when outside because it is diluted by the air, however, when confined to a house, it can build up in dangerously high levels. 
• The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that 7 million homes in the United States have high Radon levels, with Ohio being one of the worst states for Radon gas exposure.
• Radon is a silent killer that is tasteless, odorless, and colorless. This radioactive gas is responsible for 21,000 deaths each year, and is the 2nd leading cause of lung cancer.
