Welcome to Maine Radon Mitigation Company, a local company run by Mike Wilson and Doug Robinson, both are Registered Radon Testers and Mitigators.
Radon is a colorless, tasteless, naturally occurring radioactive gas produced from the decay of uranium-238, which occurs naturally in rocks and soil.
Maine is part of a geographical region that is relatively high in natural uranium-238 which increases the level of radon in air and water. When radon accumulates in indoor air it can increase the health risks (primarily lung cancer) to occupants.
Radon typically moves up through the ground to the air above and into your home through cracks and other holes in the foundation. Radon can also enter your home through well water. Your home can trap radon inside. |
