Radon Mitigation Problems in Bondurant Homes
The local problem
A failed radon test during the first resale of a young Bondurant home
What you notice: You are selling a house that is only a few years old, and the buyer's inspection reads above 4.0 pCi/L days before closing.
Why it happens here: Bondurant roughly quadrupled between 2000 and 2020, so most homes are recent builds now on their first or second sale, and many were never tested.
How we fix it: We schedule radon testing inside the contingency window and, if needed, install a residential system and post-mitigation test before closing.
Every Iowa county is EPA Zone 1
About 71% of Iowa homes test above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. Your neighbor's number tells you little about yours, so a 48-hour test is the only way to know.
Winter makes it worse
When the furnace runs and the ground freezes, warm air rises out of the house and pulls soil gas in through the slab, sump and cracks.
High results stall closings
A failed radon test during inspection can hold up a sale. We test inside your contingency window and can install and verify a system before closing.

Local homes
Young Homes, First Resales
Bondurant went from about 1,800 residents in 2000 to more than 7,300 in 2020, so most houses here are recent builds. Many were never tested, and the first time radon comes up is often a buyer's inspection.
If a test is high, most of these homes need a single sub-slab suction point, an airtight sump lid and a manometer. Homes with a builder passive pipe can usually be activated with an attic fan.

Bondurant Radon FAQs
My Bondurant home failed the buyer's radon test. Can you fix it before closing?
Usually, yes. Most newer homes in town need one sub-slab suction point, and installs take about a day. We run a post-mitigation test after the fan has worked at least 24 hours and send the report for the lender.
Do you serve the neighborhoods around Lake Petocka?
Yes. We cover downtown, the Lake Petocka area and the newer subdivisions along US Route 65 and the Chichaqua Valley Trail.
Can you activate a builder passive radon pipe?
Yes. We add a fan in the attic, connect power, mount a manometer and retest, usually in one short visit.
Still have a question?
Our support line answers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
