Recent preliminary studies have shown elevated levels of radon in the Prince George area and for that reason, the BC Lung Association is offering free testing kits to residents. What is Radon? “[It] is a radioactive, invisible, odorless gas that can seep into your home through cracks in floors, walls and foundations. You can't see radon. You can't smell it or taste it. But when radon seeps into a closed-in space like a house, it can be harmful”.
