From past TOTV threads, Radon should be checked. The issue is ,if they find levels that are too high, it's a problem because in a basement you can vent it out from there. Not sure what you would do in a slab home. Anyone care to comment. I'd be interested as well.

You might be interested in what you'll find at this site by scrolling down (?) to " Basement and Slab-on-Grade Homes."
