Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can dissolve into groundwater and make its way into a home’s water supply. Though most people associate radon with indoor air, it can be present in well water and occasionally other local sources, especially in areas with variable water conditions like Angel City. Everyday activities—running the shower, doing laundry, or washing dishes—can release radon from water into the air, which is why homeowners often consider testing and treating both their water and indoor air when addressing radon concerns.
You won’t detect radon in water by taste, smell, or sight; it’s invisible in a glass and doesn’t change the water’s appearance. The only dependable way to know whether your Angel City home’s water contains radon is to test, since levels can differ widely between utilities, wells, and neighboring properties. If testing finds elevated radon in the water, choosing treatment that matches your plumbing layout and daily water use is important—many homeowners find a point-of-entry, whole-house solution provides the broadest protection.
The single most effective treatment for reducing radon in household water is generally a whole-house aeration system installed at the main water entry. Aeration removes radon by transferring the gas from the water into an air stream that is vented safely outside, which is more direct for a gaseous contaminant than sediment or carbon-only filters. Properly installed, an aeration system lowers radon throughout the entire home rather than only at individual taps.
A whole-house aeration filter is a contained unit that mixes incoming water with air and vents the radon-rich air outdoors, protecting all water used for bathing, cooking, and cleaning. It’s installed ahead of the water heater and main plumbing so every tap benefits, and it can be paired with prefiltration when local water quality warrants extra protection for the aeration equipment.
