Wabasha County Radon Profile

Because of its underlying geology, Wabasha County is mapped as EPA Radon Zone 1 — the most elevated classification — where predicted indoor screening averages exceed 4 pCi/L. Direct test data for Wabasha County remains limited, so the closest neighboring readings are used here to represent the radon conditions homeowners are likely to encounter. As the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S., radon warrants testing in every Wabasha County home regardless of zone or a neighbor's results.

Radon FAQ for Kellogg, MN

What EPA Radon Zone is Kellogg in?
Kellogg and the 55945 zip code are in Wabasha County, which has an EPA assigned Radon Zone of 1. A zone of 1 predicts an average indoor radon screening level greater than 4 pCi/L.
Why are radon readings shown from areas near Kellogg?
No homeowner radon tests have been submitted for Kellogg yet. Because radon is driven by regional soil and bedrock geology, readings from the closest cities—and the Wabasha County average—are the best available indicator of local conditions until Kellogg homeowners submit their own results. The EPA still recommends testing every individual home, since levels can vary significantly from house to house.
How much does radon mitigation cost in Kellogg?
Radon mitigation in Kellogg typically costs between $800 and $2,000. Most homes with standard basements can be mitigated with a sub-slab depressurization system in the $1,000–$1,500 range. Factors that can increase cost include complex foundations, crawl spaces, or very high radon levels.
Should I test for radon if I'm buying a home in Kellogg?
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.
