Radon Mitigation in Lower Windsor Township
Lower Windsor Township is the southeastern river side of York County, hillier than Windsor Township and closer to the Susquehanna. Wrightsville is the borough people use as a landmark.
Houses in Lower Windsor Township
Hill houses, farmhouses, and later homes on sloped lots are the stock. Walkout basements are common because the grade falls toward the river. The buried side of that walkout is soil. The open side is a door. Radon enters on the buried side. An older stone farmhouse in the same township can have a dirt cellar instead, and that house does not get a walkout detail pasted onto it.
Lower Windsor’s hills are still York County, still EPA Zone 1. The river gorge is scenic and not a vent for the soil under a slab. Shale is part of this landscape. Water runs down the hill and people notice the wet walkout first. The radon test is the second fact. We do not let the wet door talk us out of measuring.
What the visit is usually about
Walkout versus dirt farm cellar is the split. Sub-slab depressurization for the walkout slab. Testing placed in that lower level, not on the uphill first floor. Wrightsville is the borough page.
Lower Windsor Township is not Windsor Township and not Wrightsville Borough. The names share a river and not an office. Pennsylvania DEP radon page is the state reference. A fan on a walkout wall has to clear the door and any bedroom window above it, which is the EPA radon guidance point we check on the slope.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions we hear on York County jobs.
Is Lower Windsor the same office as Windsor Township?
No. They are different townships. Windsor Township is the Red Lion side. Lower Windsor is the river-hill side toward Wrightsville. Using the wrong name sends the permit and the driving directions astray.
