What is Radon?

Radon is an invisible radioactive gas that has been found in homes all over the United States. It comes from the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water and gets released into the air. Radon moves up through the ground to the air above and into your home through cracks and other holes in the foundation. Radon can also enter your home through well water.
