Radon Testing

​​​

What is Radon and Why Should You Care?

​

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that forms in soil, rock, and water. It’s colorless, odorless, and tasteless—which makes it impossible to detect without specialized equipment. As radon seeps into your home through cracks in the foundation, slab, or crawl space, it can accumulate to dangerous levels indoors.

​

The EPA estimates that 1 in every 15 homes in the U.S. has elevated radon levels, and Tennessee is considered a high-risk radon zone. Long-term exposure is the second leading cause of lung cancer, right behind smoking.

​

If you're buying a home or concerned about indoor air quality, radon testing is one of the smartest decisions you can make.
