Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas and a leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers. In fact, the U.S. EPA estimates that over 21,000 Americans die annually from radon-induced lung cancer. But what exactly is radon, why is it dangerous, and how can you test for it?
Radon is an invisible, naturally occurring radioactive gas that can accumulate inside homes, schools, workplaces, and other buildings. Because it has no color, odor, or taste, testing is the only way to determine whether elevated radon levels are present.
Eurofins Built Environment Testing provides reliable radon testing solutions to help homeowners, building professionals, schools, and businesses identify potential exposure and make informed decisions about indoor air quality.

What Is Radon and Why Is Testing Important?
Radon is produced by the natural breakdown of uranium and radium in soil, rock, and water. It can enter buildings through foundation cracks, floor drains, construction joints, and other openings, potentially accumulating to elevated levels indoors.
Long-term exposure to radon is a leading cause of lung cancer, including among people who have never smoked. Since radon cannot be detected without testing, routine monitoring is an important part of maintaining healthy indoor environments.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends taking action to reduce indoor radon concentrations at or above 4.0 picocuries per liter (pCi/L).
