Carbon monoxide (CO) isn't known as the silent killer for nothing. Every year between 30 and 50 people are estimated to die from breathing in this deadly gas. The saddening part is that taking some simple precautions could have very likely prevented most of these deaths.

From a human health standpoint, radon is a potential hazard when it accumulates in high concentrations inside homes and commercial buildings. Fortunately, we have reliable ways to measure radon levels in buildings.
