Radon Testing in Rice

Radon Testing in Rice, Benton County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Rice is a small Highway 10 town of older homes and rural acreage between St. Cloud and Little Falls.

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.

Two-story home with lit windows in fresh snow at dusk — Radon Testing in Rice, MNRice
Local housing

Homes in Rice.

Rice housing runs to older homes and rural acreage, across the Highway 10 core and the acreage toward the Mississippi, on sandy plain between the Mississippi and the Benton County granite — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find.

Local conditions in Rice

Out in Rice, many properties sit beyond city sewer and water on private septic systems and wells, so we flag those for the specialized testing they deserve. Rice sits in Benton County, in EPA Radon Zone 2 — a moderate county rating, but MDH reports more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk, and a county zone never predicts one house. 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 Rice-area homes face.
