In case you’re not aware, radon is a odorless, tasteless, colorless naturally occurring radioactive gas. This gas occurs in nature due to the breakdown of uranium in the ground. Well then how does it get into my water, you might be asking. Radon seeps into the groundwater that runs directly though or over radium rich rocks. The more the water passes through or over those rocks the amount of radon increases. If you have a dug well here in Maine there are good chances that your water had radon in it.
