Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that seeps from soil and bedrock into buildings through foundation cracks and other openings. Since radon is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, the only way to know if your property is affected is through professional testing.
Davenport sits atop soil layers with higher uranium concentrations, making homes and commercial buildings in this area more susceptible to elevated radon levels. Prolonged exposure to radon significantly increases the risk of lung cancer, making early detection critical for you and your family’s health.
Our comprehensive radon testing services use the latest technology and methods to provide accurate readings, giving you the information you need to make smart decisions about your indoor air quality.
Radon originates from the natural decay of uranium found in soil, rock, and water.
Because it is a radioactive gas, long-term inhalation at high levels poses serious health risks. It’s the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking.
Radon can enter any type of building—from single-family homes and apartment complexes to schools and offices—making testing and mitigation critical regardless of building age or type.
Radon gas migrates upward through soil and can penetrate your building through multiple entry points, including:
Small or large cracks in the foundation of your home provide direct entry points for radon to seep in.
Spaces around pipes and sump pump pits can serve as entry points for radon gas.
Gaps or joints between the floor and walls can be potential entry points for radon gas.
Radon can sometimes be present in well water and released in the air when used for showing or cooking, in some cases.
Once inside the home or building, radon can be distributed by heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
