Radon gas is the 2nd leading cause of lung cancer in the US and is linked to approximately 21,000 deaths each year. Radon is a colorless, odorless, inert gas, that escapes through the soil into crawl spaces as well as penetrations and cracks in your concrete slab. The EPA radon maps identify areas in Alabama, Tennessee and GA that have the highest potential to see concentrations of radon above the action lever of 4 pCi/L. With a simple test the dangers of radon exposure can be identified and reduced by the installation of a radon reduction system
