Radon gas moves from the soil into homes through small openings in the foundation and lower levels. In Ankeny homes, the most common entry points include:
Even hairline cracks in concrete allow radon gas to seep into basements and lower living areas.
Open or improperly sealed sump pits can draw radon in directly from beneath the home.
Areas where walls and floors meet often create pathways for radon entry.
Gaps around plumbing, wiring, and HVAC lines can allow soil gases to enter the structure.
Homes with crawl spaces may experience radon buildup without proper sealing or ventilation.
Radon can enter through cracks or expansion joints in slab-on-grade homes.
