Method was used drying method warming to calculate the concentrations of radioactive elements in the models measured were used technique test tubes to measure radon using a detector effect nuclear CR-39, The Hits radioactive radon ranging from (3.82 PCi L) to (9.99 PCi l). All the results were below the levels of pollutants maximum (MLC) for radon in drinking water and registered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
