When you and your kids spend your days at home, healthy indoor air should be the last thing you need to worry about. Test for #radon for peace of mind protection against the leading cause of #lungcancer among nonsmokers. 

Did you know? 💡 Kids are even more at risk for harmful exposure to radon because of their lung size, shape, and faster breathing rates compared to adults. 

To put it into perspective - the EPA action level for radon is 4.0 pCi/L. The damage to adult lungs at this level is like smoking 8 cigarettes per day or receiving 200 chest x-rays per year😱 And we know you would never hand your kid a lit cigarette... make sure they're not breathing radon at home.
