Description:

Testing for radon is especially important if your home is affected by chemical vapor intrusion, and you don’t have a venting system installed.

Even if testing shows that you don’t have a vapor intrusion problem, you could still have a radon problem. Vapor intrusion investigations usually don’t test for radon, even though radon gets into your home the same way that chemical vapors do.

Read on to learn more about radon, radon testing, and reducing radon in your home.
