Local conditions in Hector

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