Radon gas moves upward from the soil and enters buildings through openings in the foundation and lower levels. Common entry points in Marshalltown homes include:
Once inside, radon tends to build up in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas—especially during colder months when windows and doors are closed. Because it’s colorless and odorless, there’s no way to know your home’s radon level without professional testing. That’s why routine testing and mitigation are so important for maintaining healthy indoor air quality in Oskaloosa.
Small cracks in concrete foundations allow radon gas to seep into basements and lower levels.
Unsealed sump pits can act as direct entry points for radon from beneath the home.
Gaps where foundation walls meet floors are common radon pathways.
Openings around plumbing, electrical, and HVAC lines can allow radon to enter.
Homes with crawl spaces may experience radon buildup without proper sealing or ventilation.
Expansion joints and cracks in slab-on-grade homes can allow radon intrusion.
Understanding these entry points highlights why professional testing and properly designed mitigation systems are essential.
