Maine radon is a naturally occurring, odorless, tasteless, radioactive gas that can be emitted from the rock bed below our homes. Radon usually gets into our homes through natural foundations or even concrete foundations. Even a concrete slab will not completely protect you from the potential of Maine radon levels. If radon levels in your home go untreated, the exposure has been proven to be the number on cause of lung cancer.
