Radon Testing
Uncover the hidden threat of radon, a naturally-occurring, odorless, colorless, and tasteless gas in your home. Radon testing is crucial to determine if your Denver, CO residence or surrounding areas are exposed to unsafe levels of this harmful gas. Ensure your family’s safety with our comprehensive radon testing services.
What is Radon?
More Info
Radon, a naturally-occurring gas, is odorless, colorless, and tasteless. Radon testing is the only way to know if your home has unsafe levels of Radon gas.
Radon gas is produced when uranium 238 and other radioactive elements break down in soil, rock, and water. Released into the air, it accumulates in poorly ventilated areas. Exposure to Radon causes cancer. It is estimated to cause about 21,000 lung cancer deaths each year in the U.S.
