It’s time to test your home for radon.
Winter is the best time to do home radon testing. Radon is a radioactive gas that can seep into homes through the foundation, and it’s more likely to infiltrate a home in the winter when the furnaces are running. 1 in 10 Wisconsin homes have radon, and it’s been shown to increase cancer chances.
