RADON IS A VERY BIG PROBLEM. YOU CAN’T SEE IT, TOUCH IT, SMELL IT OR TASTE IT. BUT, IT CAN KILL YOU!
Is Radon Endangering Your Loved Ones?
As many as 21,000 preventable lung cancers are caused by radon every year. You can live in your home for many years without any symptoms and then one day you may find out you have lung cancer. They say the greatest enemy you could ever have is the enemy you do not know is there. Our mission is to help you find that enemy by doing a radon test. You will then know whether or not your home is a healthy place to raise your family.
ARE YOU WORRIED that there is radon gas in your home? The EPA estimates that 1 out of 5 homes have dangerous levels of radon. Radon is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, radioactive gas. It comes from the natural breakdown of uranium and its products. Radon gas is found underground and in every state. It can easily get into your home and you would not even know it. But, you can use a radon test to determine if you have a radon problem.
Modular Construction Corp. will test each and every home we build, to protect you and your family against this dangerous killer. Each of our homes is built with a Radon pipe as part of your home. If your Radon level is above 4 pCi/L, which is the highest allowable rating for Radon, we can connect Radon mitigation devices that will bring the Radon Level down below the allowable standard of 4 pCi/L. We have to wait until your house is completed and the basement is closed in, before we can run the test.
Radon is a natural part of the ground. It is higher in some places than other places. There is no way to tell prior to building your home. Beware of granite counter tops. Granite is a stone that comes from the earth. Some granite contains more Radon than others. If your going to buy a granite countertop, you must find out what the Radon levels are prior to you installing them in your house.
