Radon Found In Countertops

my wife has some deadly radon gas, should i replace her or will it just become some one elses problem then.

This is just another load of crap from companies that make some other countertops and are not even close to granite. Granite is the best and it is true; you got more radon in the basement of your house and it doesn't come from granite.

send me all of your granite countertops. It doesn't bother me, I live on the edge.

I first heard that granite countertops were radioactive when I heard they were checking all containers coming into the US looking for nukes, & what always sets off the detectors is granite countertops--saying "Oh, its just countertops again" All granite countertops send off some radiation,& some are "hot" levels-- very dangerous. You have to find out what type of radiation it is sending off too because.radon gas is very dangerous when breathed in the air. Gamma is also dangerous for the unborn.

Iam one of those workers, and would be very greatful of any more info on this subject as in the UK there has been no tests that i know of to date for people who work with natural stone.

They both have granite at their homes.

I just found online that this CMT Labaratories company does recomend granite for the countertops. What was this on TV; SOME PAID STUNT?

This is so fake. My family has granite in their houses for decades. Go in your basement and check the radon level and you will find that you have something in level that should have kill you 3 years ago. However, this guy says only in red and purple granites, and who likes their countertops to be red or purple. Nothing beats granite and radon in granite is false information placed to consumers like us by those fake countertops companies. FAKE PRODUCTS FAKE RADON INFORMATION.

I have a dosimeter just like that in my school :P

i dont think its dangerous but over a long period of time espesally prepairing foods that obsorb this gas then could potentially be a hazard and may contribute to intestine and bladder cancers im guessing its safer to prepare meals off the floor now heh
