Radon Testing in Edgewood
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 roughly two in five homes test above the action level.
Iowa has the highest average indoor radon level in the nation; the Iowa DNR puts roughly five in ten homes above the 4.0 pCi/L action level, and Clayton, Delaware and Fayette counties are all Radon Zone 1. On the Driftless side, fractured limestone near the surface gives radon an easy path into basements. We place an EPA-protocol continuous monitor on the lowest livable level for a 48-hour closed-house test and attach the result to your report.

Local conditions in Edgewood
Iowa runs no municipal time-of-sale inspection ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on a Edgewood home. Edgewood sits in Clayton County, and Iowa has the highest average indoor radon level of any state — the Iowa DNR puts roughly five in ten Iowa homes above the 4.0 pCi/L action level, and Iowa sellers must disclose known radon results on the property disclosure. Finished basements concentrate it, and only a 48-hour test gives you this home's number. Footings here are set below a frost line of roughly 42 inches in northern Iowa, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear we calibrate every Edgewood visit to find.
