Radon is a naturally occurring, odorless gas that can cause lung cancer.
Radon is measured in picocuries per liter of air, or pCi/L. Testing is the only way to determine radon levels. The federal government recommends homeowners take action to lower radon levels if test results show levels of 4 pCi/L or more.
