Why Mount Airy Homes Have High Radon Levels

Mount Airy sits on a geological transition zone between the Piedmont Plateau and the Frederick Valley, both of which produce elevated radon. The underlying Piedmont metamorphic rock and Triassic basin sediments create conditions where radon migrates into homes through foundation cracks, gaps around pipes, and sump pits. Professional radon testing is the only way to confirm your home’s level. According to the EPA, radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, responsible for approximately 21,000 deaths per year.
