Taos Pueblo Environmental What You Should Know About RADON And how you can protect your family

RADON GAS PARTICLES typically move up through the ground in through your home through cracks and other holes in the foundation. Your home traps radon inside, where it can build up. Can you be the MITIGATOR and help the radon gas move out of the house into the atmosphere so they will not get trapped?
