Radon is an invisible radioactive gas that can build up in homes and is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Testing is the only way to know your home's levels. Short-term tests (2–7 days) give a quick check. Testing is cheap, easy and should be done during home sales, after big renovations, or if your area has known radon. If levels are 4.0 pCi/L or higher (EPA guideline), mitigation—like active soil depressurization—can cut indoor radon and lower risk. Test regularly and get professional help to keep your home safe.
