Radon
About 1 out of 10 homes in Wisconsin has high radon levels. Radon is a gas, naturally occurring from the ground. Although you cannot see it or smell it, it can be present in your home. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States.
Testing Your Home
Testing is the only way to know if you and your family are at risk from radon. If you've never tested your home before, it is recommended that you start with a short-term test. Simply follow the instructions provided as you test your home. The ideal time for testing is during the fall and winter heating season, when the home is closed up. Certified measurement professionals are also available for radon testing.
