Radon can enter your home through your water supply, especially if you use well water. Radon is produced in the ground from trace amounts of uranium, the gas can travel great distances through porous soil and cracks in the rock. Radon dissolves in water and can contaminate your underground water supply. When radon enters your home through your water, it can raise the radon concentrations in your air whenever the water is used.
