What is Radon?
Radon is a natural gas that is produced by uranium decay in rocks and soil. It is very toxic and can cause major health problems if it makes its way into your home. Radon typically moves up through the ground and into your home through cracks and other holes in the foundation. If you have cracks in your foundation, your home is at greater risk for radon intrusion.
Radon is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, making it very difficult to detect. In order to protect your home from intrusion, an Ann Arbor radon mitigation system is needed to decrease the exposure and protect your family from radon’s harmful health effects.
The Dangers of Radon
Radon is a very dangerous gas that can cause serious health issues for anyone who has contact with it. Radon is said to be as cancer-causing as tobacco smoke and asbestos which are responsible for thousands of deaths per year. Radon is one of the leading causes of lung cancer, and those exposed to it are at greater risk of illness in the future.
Symptoms of radon exposure include:
- Chest pains
- Coughing up blood
- Persistent cough
- Wheezing
Radon Mitigation Systems
Your home’s radon levels can be tested to see how great your exposure risk is. Based on the results of the radon test, we can install a radon mitigation system to reduce the amount of radon in your home for a safe and healthy environment.
Radon mitigation systems use a fan to pull air from the soil and push it outdoors through a pipe. The pipe discharges the radon outside away from any windows or other openings. To protect your home and your family from the dangerous impacts of radon, an Ann Arbor radon mitigation system is very important. Contact us for your free evaluation!
