What is Radon and How to Test For It Featuring RADON AUTHORITY
Where does radon come from?
According to Gregg Zetzman, owner of Radon Authority in Florida, radon can also be present in the materials actually used to build your home. Radon is used to make concrete materials, such as your walls and floors, and is also present in the soil under your house, Zetzman said in an interview with ABC7 News in Sarasota, Florida.
That means we can be exposed to radon regardless of how old our home is or what type of home we live in.
