Since radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, and is responsible for the deaths of more than 20,000 Americans every year this is most definitely a good thing. It will save lives in the long run.
Radon seeps into homes through cracks in the foundation, walls and flooring. It is released as a natural decay product of elements such as Uranium, which is abundant in soil, rock and more. Once inside the home, it collects in great amounts eventually growing to hazardous levels. When inhaled, the radon gas particles remain stuck to the inner linings of a person’s lungs where they continue to decay. Since it’s a radioactive gas, it can cause serious harm to the body – resulting directly in lung cancer.
Get In Touch with a Radon Removal Service ASAP
The good news is that the health effects mostly come from long term exposure. Since radon increases the risk of contracting lung cancer – and that risk grows exponentially when smoking is involved – it can be prevented by mitigating the issue. In other words, the radon gas can be vented from the home and those affected will be safe from harm.
The only way to detect whether or not radon is a problem in your residence is to test the air specifically for its presence. That is why you need to get in touch with a radon removal service provider as soon as possible. The sooner you have your home tested the better off you and your family will be.
It just so happens, radon testing equipment is one of the things Greene’s Inc. now has available.
A Radon Removal Service Can Help You Mitigate Radon In Your Home
If a problem is discovered, Salt Lake residents can also acquire the proper tools to remove the deadly, cancer-causing gas from their home.
Jeremy Worley, a certified radon mitigation expert for Greene’s Inc. says that most people have no clue radon even exists.
“Lung cancer from radon gas is a huge problem most Americans don’t even think about while living in or buying their homes. This terrible disease and the needless deaths that result from radon exposure can be almost entirely avoided with a simple test and, if needed, the installation of a radon mitigation system.”
A huge problem indeed. If you are reading this, take some time to get familiar with the natural danger that is radon gas. Once you are educated, share the information with friends, family, neighbors, colleagues and anyone you know. The more people that are aware radon gas exists and that it’s a serious health risk, the better.
If you live in Salt Lake City, contact Greene’s Inc. as soon as possible and schedule a radon test for your home. If you live elsewhere in the U.S. – or the world – get in touch with a local radon removal service to get your home tested. Have it tested sooner rather than later.
