What is Radon and why is it harmful?

Radon is a naturally occurring, radioactive gas that is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. Radon gas decays into radioactive particles that can get trapped in your lungs when you breathe. As they break down further, these particles release small bursts of energy. This can damage lung tissue and lead to lung cancer over the course of your lifetime.

Current data indicates that 1 in 4 houses in Kansas may have elevated levels!

WhY should You test your home?

Testing your home for radon is the only way to know if radon levels are high, which could put you and your family at risk for lung cancer. Radon is a radioactive gas that comes from the decay of uranium in rocks and soil, and it can enter buildings through cracks, gaps, and/or sumps. Houses act like large chimneys. As the air in the house warms, it rises to leak out the attic openings and around the upper floor windows. This creates a small suction at the lowest level of the house, pulling the radon out of the soil and into the house.

How do we conduct a test?

At Wichita Radon Testing, LLC, we perform short-term radon measurement tests lasting 48hrs. We use the most advanced Continuous Radon Monitors (CRMs) that report in hourly increments allowing us to track changes in radon levels over time. This information can help you stay informed about radon levels and take actions to mitigate any potential health risks associated with high radon levels. The CRM is placed in the lowest level of the home or building. After the 48hr test you will receive a full report containing hourly test data with EPA/Overall averages, radon risk, and testing protocols.
