Radon Testing in Apple Valley, Dakota County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Apple Valley is a southern suburb of 1980s-1990s family homes around its parks and lakes.

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.

Apple Valley housing runs to 1980s-1990s family homes, across the neighborhoods around the parks and lakes, on rolling, wooded sites — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find.

Local conditions in Apple Valley

Dakota County is listed as EPA Radon Zone 1, and the Minnesota Department of Health recommends that every Minnesota home be tested regardless of zone. In Apple Valley we set a monitor in the lowest lived-in level, often a finished lower level in a walkout, keep windows and exterior doors closed, and read the result. A high reading points toward mitigation, and the same test can be repeated after work is done.

Questions

Common questions.

Is radon really a concern in Minnesota?
Yes. The Minnesota Department of Health reports that more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk, and finished basements are where it concentrates.
How long does the test run?
A 48-hour minimum under closed-house conditions; the result is delivered with your inspection report.
What should I look for in an Apple Valley house built in the late 1980s?
Roof shingles, window seals, water heater and furnace age are the first items, since many of those are now at or past their typical life. Attic ventilation, the electrical panel, the sewer lateral and the basement for moisture matter as well. Houses of this age are often in good shape but with several components ready for replacement, and knowing which is the main value of the inspection.
Do you inspect Apple Valley homes?
Yes — late-century homes here commonly need attention to aging water heaters, HVAC and decks.
