## Radon Mitigation Problems in Newton Basements

The local problem

### Hollow block-wall basements in Maytag-era Newton homes

**What you notice:** Sealing the floor did not fix it. Radon keeps coming through the basement walls.

**Why it happens here:** Newton had about the same population in 1960 as in 2020, so much of its housing dates from the Maytag years, often with hollow concrete block walls that carry soil gas up through the cores.

**How we fix it:** Residential radon mitigation here seals block tops and wall penetrations, adds sub-slab suction and sometimes a second point near the walls.

### 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.
