Radon Testing in Montgomery

Radon Testing in Montgomery, Le Sueur County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Montgomery is a small Czech-heritage southern town of early-1900s homes.

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 Montgomery.

Montgomery housing runs to early-1900s Czech-heritage homes with postwar infill, across the historic town core, on rolling southern till — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find.

Local conditions in Montgomery

Out in Montgomery, many properties sit beyond city sewer and water on private septic systems and wells, so we flag those for the specialized testing they deserve. Montgomery sits in Le Sueur 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 Montgomery-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.
What is specific to Montgomery's older homes?
Heritage-era construction — balloon framing, original masonry and systems that have been layered over for a century. The value in the report is untangling which layer is current and which is abandoned in place, especially in the wiring.
