Radon in DeBary Florida Water

Unhealthy Levels of Radon in the Water Supply of DeBary Florida Homes

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can dissolve into groundwater and make its way into a home’s water supply. While most people think of radon as an indoor air issue, it can be present in well water or other groundwater sources; when you run a shower, do laundry, or wash dishes, some radon can release from water into the air. In DeBary, homeowners often consider both water and air testing when they’re concerned about radon because activities throughout the house can move gas from water into the spaces where you live.

Radon in water has no taste, smell, or color, so you can’t detect it by looking at or tasting a glass of water. The only reliable way to know what’s in your supply is to test, since levels can vary block by block and even between neighboring properties. If testing shows elevated radon in your water, it’s sensible to choose treatment that fits your plumbing layout and daily water use—especially in DeBary homes built on the Floridan aquifer region where homeowners may also be managing hard water and mineral scale in plumbing and heaters. A whole-house solution treats water where it enters the house for consistent protection throughout.
