Radon Testing in Delavan

Radon Testing in Delavan, Faribault County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Delavan is a small Faribault County farm town of older homes west of Wells.

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.

Local housing

Homes in Delavan.

Delavan housing runs to early-1900s farm-town homes with scattered postwar additions, across the compact town core, on flat Faribault County prairie clay — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find.

Local conditions in Delavan

Delavan does not run a point-of-sale housing ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on the home. Delavan sits in Faribault 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 Delavan-area homes face.

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.
Do you cover Delavan?
Yes — Delavan is a short run from our Mankato base, inside the ring where our own inspectors do thermal imaging and mold testing. Older farm-town homes get wiring, plumbing and foundations dated precisely, and flat prairie clay keeps drainage and basement moisture in every report. Faribault County is Radon Zone 1.
