November is Radon Action Month

Submitted

As the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers, exposure to radon claims more than 3,000 lives in Canada each year.  

Radon, which is found in every home in Canada, is an invisible, radioactive gas that comes from the ground. Radon levels vary from one house to another, even if they are similar designs and next door to each other. The only way to know the level in your home is to test. 1 in 5 homes in Canada has a high radon level.  

No matter the age, type of construction or where your home is located, the only way to be sure of the radon level in your home is to test.
