January Is National Radon Action Month

Test. Fix. Save a Life. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter building structures from the ground and build up to dangerous levels. Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers and is responsible for about 21,000 lung cancer deaths every year. Both colorless and odorless, the only way to know if you have high levels of radon in your home or workplace is to test. CLICK HERE > for more information on testing for radon in the state of Michigan.
