DARLINGTON - One of the most serious health hazards found in indoor air is completely invisible. It is an odorless, colorless gas called radon.
Radon occurs naturally in the soil and accumulates in homes especially during the winter months. In Southwest Wisconsin, past testing has shown that in some areas 30 percent of homes have elevated radon levels. Making repairs to eliminate radon gas can be simple and affordable. A typical radon problem can be solved for less than $1,000.
Testing is the only way to know what the radon level is in your home. Test kits are available free of charge at the Lafayette County Health Department, 729 Clay Street, Darlington. For more information, contact the Lafayette County Health Department at (608) 776-4895.
