Have you ever heard about this thing called Radon? I had never come across it before my boyfriend started looking into buying a house. Radon is along the same scary lines a carbon monoxide, Radon is a invisible, tasteless, odorless gas that is emitted from the breakdown of uranium inside the earth’s crust. There are many different ways that Radon can appear in your home. You can be exposed to it through the air you breathe or there can even be Radon in water. The thing that makes Radon scary is that it is the number one cause of lung cancer in people who have never smoked a day in their life.

Now that I’ve scared you slightly into being aware that Radon in water exists, now I am here to tell you about the people who are here to help and mitigate it from your home or business. Before you get too panicked, there are tests that can be done to see if Radon is something you need to worry about in your home or office. The Radon in water professionals at Affordable Water Treatments are here to help, they can get you tests kits and also help you through the results.
