(EstateNewsWire.com, July 20, 2012 ) Altoona IA – Radon testing and mitigation specialists service child care facilities to perform radon testing as prescribed by the Iowa Department of Health. Radon testing is required within one year of initial licensing or renewal and additional tests must be performed every two years after the initial testing.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas known to cause cancer in humans. It comes from uranium and radium in soil and rock. According to information posted on the Radon Testing Altoona IA website, Iowa has the highest percentage of homes with dangerous indoor levels of radon in the U.S.
Visitors to the site learn the statics; 1 in 15 homes in the US test high for radon levels. Most homes in Iowa and about 20% of schools have high levels of radon. The risk is serious. Radon in homes causes 14,000 to 15,000 lung cancer deaths per year, more than drowning, home fires and airline crashes combined!
According to the National Academy of Sciences infant risk is slightly higher than adults. Factors that influence a child’s risk include the level of radon in the daycare and their home, the amount of time spent in those areas and whether or not someone in the home smokes.
No level of radon is safe. EPA and IDPH recommends service by qualified radon testing and mitigation specialists for Iowa residents and business owners. Radon is invisible, odorless and tasteless but can easily and inexpensively be measured and reduced.
