Radon Testing in Minnetrista

Radon Testing in Minnetrista, Hennepin County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Minnetrista is a mostly rural western Hennepin city of farms, horse properties and Lake Minnetonka bay shoreline, 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 Minnetrista.

Minnetrista housing runs to older farmhouses, mid-century rural homes, and newer lake-area and acreage houses from the growth that took the city to 8,262 people, across the farmland and horse properties along Six Mile Creek, the shoreline around Lake Minnetonka bays, and the lake-dotted country near Whaletail Lake, on the Des Moines-lobe end moraine of the Big Woods, with Six Mile Creek draining toward Lake Minnetonka — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find. Instrument-grade tools, a local eye, every visit.

Local conditions in Minnetrista

Minnetrista does not run a point-of-sale housing ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on the home. Minnetrista sits in Hennepin 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 Minnetrista 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.
What should I check on a hobby farm or horse property in Minnetrista?
Minnetrista is largely rural, with corn, soybeans, hay and horses on the land, and its township roots go back to German Home Township in 1858. On a property like that the house is only part of the job. We inspect the house and any attached structures, then look at drainage around barns, outbuildings and the house pad, wells and septic systems, wood-framed additions, and moisture in low ground near creeks or wetlands. Six Mile Creek carries runoff from about 17,000 acres to Lake Minnetonka, so water routing across a parcel deserves attention.
