What Is Radon Gas?

​Louisville KY Radon Mitigation has some facts to share about radon gas which may enlighten you about its behavior and the methods used to combat it.

Radon gas is much heavier than room air, so it tends to sink into basements or ground level rooms. Breathing air that is high in radon puts you at a 50-90% higher chance of getting lung cancer over the course of your life.

Inhaling just one radon atom, in its radioactive state, can allow it to damage a single lung cell. The damaged cell can become cancerous in 5, 20 or even 40 years, making radon exposure unpredictable and potentially deadly.

Lung cancer is impossible to treat in about 1 out of 4 cases. It is an aggressive cancer with a high mortality rate, so avoiding risk as much as possible is a wise decision.
​
Radon mitigation Louisville KY homeowners want reduces their radon levels drastically. Outside, the air has a concentration of roughly 0.4 pCi/L. If we can keep your home’s levels around this figure, we are satisfied that you are getting no more exposure to radon than you would be walking down the street.

Worried About Radon Gas?

​Louisville KY Radon Mitigation is a full-service radon mitigation company, so we consider any amount of radon gas in your home to be our business!

The EPA has made recommendations about interior radon gas levels, but there are no mandates that home builders and buyers must follow at this time.

We, on the other hand, have specific recommendations for every customer regardless of the level of radon gas in their homes. Our standards for recommending action are more stringent than the EPA’s, but ultimately, decisions about radon gas are left in the hands of our valued, respected customers.
