The number one cause of lung cancer in non-smokers is radon. Radon gas is a colorless/odorless gas that is in everyone's' home. The EPA recommends every home be tested. The standard for measurement for radon mitigation is recommended at 4.0pCi/L or above. Testing typically take a minimum of 48 hours. Test kits are available at local hardware stores, however, they don't give you an hour by hour reading like professional radon monitors do. So what do you do if you have high radon in your home? Below is a video of what a radon mitigation system will look like. After this home was tested during a home inspection, it was discovered that the level was at 30pCi/L! That is way high radon levels! After Bloodhound Environmental installed the radon mitigation system, these levels dropped from 30pCi/L all the way down under 1 at a 0.4pCi/L. This family can now breathe easy!
