Radon

Radon is a colorless, odorless, tasteless and chemically inert gas that is formed by the natural radioactive breakdown of Uranium in rock, soil or water. Radon was randomly deposited when the glaciers moved through this area and can be found in all 50 states. It can seep into your home undetected through various routes, including cracks in your foundation or sump pumps. Madison County is reported by the EPA to be a Zone 1 for radon levels, which is the highest level. For an interactive map of EPA radon zones, please click here. The Surgeon General has warned that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer among those that smoke, and the first leading cause among those who do not smoke.
