1 in 3 KC-Area Homes Test Positive for Dangerous Levels of Radon

National Initiative to Raise Awareness with Radon Action Week

KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI – October 23, 2015 – (RealEstateRama) — The dangers of radon exposure often go overlooked, perhaps due to the fact that radon is an invisible gas that has no odor or taste. However, according the American Lung Association and U.S. Surgeon General, radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, resulting in an estimated 15,000-22,000 deaths each year. Locally, in Kansas City, an average of one of every three homes test positive for levels above the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) recommended safe level.
