Radon is a natural, radioactive gas that is very common in Connecticut. Radon is colorless and odorless, and it can come from the soil into the ground floors of houses.

Radon kills 58 people each day and is the second leading cause of lung cancer. 

 

Winter is the best time to test for radon as your house is more likely to be closed up.  

 

Testing your home is easy to do and should only take a few minutes of your time.
