Dakota Radon Mitigation

Dakota Radon Mitigation serves Sioux Falls and the surrounding area. We test for radon levels in your home or business, and can also install the mitigation systems to help keep you safe.Radon is a naturally occurring, colorless, odorless, highly radioactive gas. It is produced by the natural radioactive decay in soil, rock, and water. Radon and its associated by-products emit alpha and beta particles and gamma rays. These particles attach themselves to other airborne particles such as dust, and are inhaled into your lungs. Once inside your lungs, they lodge in the mucus membranes. The damage from these particles can cause cancer.Radon claims over 20,000 lives annually. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers and is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. The amount of Radon and the length of time you have been exposed to it determine your lung cancer risk from this sometimes deadly gas. The higher the level the higher the risk.
