Radon Testing Overview
Radon is a colorless, odorless, radioactive gas that occurs naturally. When radioactive elements in the ground break down, they release radon into the surrounding soil, which eventually rises and releases into the air. If this occurs underneath your home, radon gas can seep in through cracks or gaps in the foundation and begin to build up inside the lower floors of the property.
Radon is carcinogenic, and is the leading cause of lung cancer for non-smokers in the United States. If you allow radon to build up in your home with no mitigation system installed, you may put your family at increased risk to their health.
Radon levels can vary greatly throughout New Mexico, Texas, and Colorado. Although levels are generally lower in the Southwest, each of these states have a potential for moderate or high levels of radon, so homeowners in this region should have their property tested for radon.

The Benefits of Continuous Radon Monitoring Systems
When it comes to ensuring the safety and health of your home or business, testing for radon is a crucial step. Radon, an invisible and odorless gas, is a natural byproduct of uranium decay in soil and rocks. Unfortunately, it’s also a known carcinogen and a leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers. Among the various radon testing methods, Continuous Radon Monitors (CRMs) stand out for their accuracy, convenience, and ability to provide a real-time analysis of radon levels.
A Guide to Radon Mitigation Compliance Testing
While installing a radon mitigation system is an essential step in reducing radon levels, it is equally crucial to verify that the system is working as intended. This is where radon mitigation compliance testing comes in, ensuring that the mitigation system adheres to established safety standards and effectively reduces indoor radon levels.
The Importance of Radon Testing for Homebuyers
Radon is a significant concern in real estate transactions, yet it often doesn’t receive the attention it deserves. This naturally occurring radioactive gas, which seeps into homes from the ground, poses a serious health risk, particularly in enclosed spaces. For both buyers and sellers, understanding radon and addressing it during the home buying or selling process is crucial to ensuring safety and peace of mind.
