FACT: Radon gas causes an estimated 21,000 cancer deaths per year in the US & is the number two cause of lung cancer in the U.S. Radon gas is second only to smoking cigarettes according to the EPA, Surgeon General and The American Lung Association. Get a radon gas detector now.
Radon cannot be seen, smelled or tasted, but it exists in the air you breathe. You are likely to gain the most exposure to Radon in your own home, where you spend most of your time. Without proper precautions, Radon can build up to toxic levels and put your family members in danger of developing lung cancer. Learn more about radon...
EPA estimates that
about 20,000 lung cancer deaths each year in the U.S. are radon-related.
Exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking.
Radon is an odorless, tasteless and invisible gas produced by the decay of
naturally occurring uranium in soil and water. Radon is a form of ionizing
radiation and a proven carcinogen. Lung cancer is the only known effect on
human health from exposure to radon in air. Thus far, there is no evidence
that children are at greater risk of lung cancer than are adults.
Radon in air is ubiquitous. Radon is found in outdoor air and in the indoor
air of buildings of all kinds. EPA recommends homes be fixed if the radon
level is 4 pCi/L (picocuries per liter) or more. Because there is no known
safe level of exposure to radon, EPA also recommends that Americans consider
fixing their home for radon levels between 2 pCi/L and 4 pCi/L. The average
radon concentration in the indoor air of America's homes is about 1.3 pCi/L.
It is upon this level that EPA based its estimate of 20,000 radon-related
lung cancers a year upon. It is for this simple reason that EPA recommends
that Americans consider fixing their homes when the radon level is between 2
pCi/L and 4 pCi/L. The average concentration of radon in outdoor air is .4
pCi/L or 1/10th of EPA's 4 pCi/L action level.
For smokers the risk of lung cancer is significant due to the synergistic
effects of radon and smoking. For this population about 62 people in a 1,000
will die of lung-cancer, compared to 7.3 people in a 1,000 for never
smokers. Put another way, a person who never smoked (never smoker) who is
exposed to 1.3 pCi/L has a 2 in 1,000 chance of lung cancer; while a smoker
has a 20 in 1,000 chance of dying from lung cancer. Figure A compares the
risks between smokers and never smokers; smokers are at a much higher risk
than never smokers, e.g., at 8 pCi/L the risk to smokers is six times the
risk to never smokers.

FACT: Radon in drinking water is a significant health hazard (to include stomach cancer), though a lesser hazard than radon gas in indoor air. Even when bathing or showering the radon gas releases from the water & can be dangerous. People with well water are usually more at risk. Learn more about Radon in water...
