Radon Testing in Wells

Radon Testing in Wells, Faribault County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Wells is a small rail-era farm town of early-1900s homes on flat prairie ground.

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 Wells.

Wells housing runs to early-1900s rail-era homes, across the older town grid, on flat Faribault County prairie clay — and that mix shapes what a radon testing here needs to find.

Local conditions in Wells

Out in Wells, many properties sit beyond city sewer and water on private septic systems and wells, so we flag those for the specialized testing they deserve. Wells sits in Faribault 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 Wells-area homes face.

What comes up in Wells homes?
