As a business owner the last thing you want to worry about
is an invisible gas creeping into your store or business where customers and
employees visit every day. No one wants to be part of the reason that someone
gets lung cancer but, regardless of where you live or where your business is,
you need to have radon gas
testing completed to determine if you and other people are being exposed
to this dangerous and toxic gas.
The allowable amount by the EPA is 4.0 pCi/L; any amount
higher than that should have a mitigation system installed. If the radon gas
exposure levels are at 4.0 pCi/L or lower, it’s advised to have an air
purification system installed for safety’s sake. We offer radon mitigation, a process that reduces radon
concentrations, in order to keep your home or business safe from this dangerous
gas.
Radon is a toxic gas and is the number-one cause of lung
cancer in non-smokers and second leading cause of lung cancer in smokers. Radon
gas is also radioactive, not visible to the human eye, and it cannot be smelled
or tasted.
Each year more than 20,000 Americans die of radon-related
lung cancer. Breathing radon gas is more of a health risk than drinking water
that contains radon however, both scenarios should be addressed properly. Radon
gas has a higher health risk for children than adults, so radon testing is
especially important if your business works with children.
