Because of its underlying geology, Marshall County is mapped as EPA Radon Zone 1 — the most elevated classification — where predicted indoor screening averages exceed 4 pCi/L.

Radon FAQ for Gatzke, MN

Yes. Radon testing should be part of every home purchase. A short-term radon test is typically included as part of the home inspection process and costs $150–$250. If elevated levels are found, you can negotiate mitigation as part of the sale.
