  Radon is a radioactive gas that comes from the decay of radium in the soil and rocks all around us.  Radon gas is colorless, odorless, and invisible.  It can be detected in a home by using a continuous monitor, 48 hour test (meets EPA requirements).  Long term exposure to elevated radon levels has been linked to an increased incidence of lung cancer.

  When testing indicates that radon level in lowest primary living area of the home is above 4.0 pCi/L, the E.P.A. recommends that the home owner take appropriate corrective action.

Dean Home Inspection uses a NY ELAP Certified Lab - AirChek - to analyze all radon tests. (http://www.radon.com)
