Radon Mitigation for Indianola Rentals and Homes
The local problem
Rentals near Simpson College that change tenants every year
What you notice: A landlord needs to know the radon level, but tenants come and go and nobody watches the system.
Why it happens here: Indianola has more than 6,400 housing units, many of them older rentals near Simpson College and downtown, where turnover is constant and an unmonitored fan can fail unnoticed.
How we fix it: We run radon testing between leases and install systems with a visible manometer, so radon system maintenance checks are quick.
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.

Indianola Radon Questions
Can you test a rental near Simpson College between tenants?
Yes. We place a 48-hour continuous radon monitor during the gap between leases, so the result is ready before the next tenant moves in.
How can a landlord tell if the system is still working?
We mount a U-tube manometer where it is easy to see. If the liquid levels are uneven, the fan is pulling. If they are level, call us for a service visit.
Do you serve newer homes along Iowa Highway 92?
Yes. Along with downtown and the Simpson College area, we cover newer Indianola neighborhoods off Highway 92 and US Route 65/69.
