Radon Testing in Grant

Radon Testing in Grant, Washington County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Grant is a rural Washington County city of acreages and lakes, incorporated in 1996, and we calibrate every visit to that.

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.

Tuned to Grant.

Grant housing runs to acreage houses and custom homes of varied ages, with some older farmsteads, across the wooded lots and acreages along Highways 36 and 96, the Gateway Trail corridor and the lake-side areas of the city, on rolling glacial moraine with many kettle lakes and wetlands in northern Washington County — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find. Instrument-grade tools, a local eye, every visit.

Local conditions in Grant

Grant does not run a point-of-sale housing ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on the home. Grant sits in Washington 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 we calibrate every Grant visit to find.

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.
Most Grant homes are on wells and septic — how does the inspection handle that?
Grant covers about 25 square miles of land and became a city in November 1996 after long being Grant Township. Many homes depend on a private well and an on-site septic system, so those systems are part of what we evaluate. We inspect the visible septic components and access lids, look for wet or lush spots over the drainfield, review well casing, cap and pressure tank condition, and recommend water testing and a septic evaluation by a licensed pumper.
