Is your home radioactive?

Before you put on your hazmat suit, read this.

Radon is an invisible, odorless, radioactive gas that has a tendency to build up under the concrete foundation of your home. Remember, concrete is porous and radon is a gas. That means it can penetrate through the tiny holes in a home’s foundation. Unfortunately, being exposed to this radioactive isotope won't give you superpowers.

Regardless of location, the only way to know if a home contains dangerous levels of radon is to test for it. One house can have radon levels next to zero while the house next door can have levels that are off the charts.

Did you know that..

...radon test results from a neighbor’s house aren't accurate indications of radon in your own home?

Unfortunately, it’s true. A study from the National Institute of Health showed that soil composition and ground permeability are key factors affecting the level of radon in your home, and they are factors that are specific to your plot of land. And while the argument could be made that your neighbor’s house is built in the same soil and close enough to your own house to know that the ground permeability is relatively constant, differences in home construction between your home and theirs could alone account for different readings of radon.
