Radon Testing in Tyler

Radon Testing in Tyler, Lincoln County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Tyler is a Danish-heritage town of older homes on the Buffalo Ridge wind country.

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 Tyler.

Tyler housing runs to older Danish-heritage homes, across the town core on the ridge, on Buffalo Ridge upland till — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find.

Local conditions in Tyler

Out in Tyler, many properties sit beyond city sewer and water on private septic systems and wells, so we flag those for the specialized testing they deserve. Tyler sits in Lincoln 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 Tyler-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.
Does Buffalo Ridge weather affect Tyler homes?
It does — the ridge is one of the windiest places in Minnesota, so roof wear, flashing, and wind-driven moisture at siding and windows get particular attention.
