Radon Testing in Big Lake
Radon Testing in Big Lake, MN by Closer Look Inspectors — a photo-mapped report within 24 hours.
Radon Testing in Big Lake
Radon testing places an EPA-protocol continuous monitor on a home's lowest livable level to measure radon gas — and it matters across Minnesota, where more than two in five homes test above the action level.
Sherburne County is EPA Radon Zone 1, and MDH reports more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk. Sandy, permeable outwash moves soil gas readily, so new construction is not exempt. Minnesota's Radon Awareness Act requires sellers to disclose known results. We place a continuous monitor on the lowest livable level for a 48-hour closed-house test and attach the result to your report.

Local conditions in Big Lake
Out in Big Lake, many properties sit beyond city sewer and water on private septic systems and wells, so we flag those for the specialized testing they deserve. Big Lake sits in Sherburne County, in EPA Radon Zone 1, and MDH reports more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk. Finished basements concentrate radon, and only a 48-hour test tells you the number. Footings here must reach the 3-1/2-foot depth Minnesota Rules 1303.1600 set for the southern frost zone, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle is what drives the settlement cracks, frost heave and ice-dam wear that Big Lake-area homes face.
