Radon is a radioactive gas that can neither be seen or smelled. It is found in the ground and ground water, formed from the decay of uranium. The radiation given off is the same as other sources such as plutonium. Most of the gas produced goes through the ground to the air above, some stays… Read More

Testing for Radon There are two types of devices used for short term testing. Active devices are operated by trained testers like us and can monitor data over the entire test period. Passive devices, like the one used in the video below, use charcoal to trap radon. The tests are sent to a laboratory for… Read More

What is radon? Radon is carcinogen and a form on ionizing radiation. Radon is a colorless, tasteless, chemically inert and odorless radioactive gas.
