Radon Mitigation in Penn Township
Penn Township in York County wraps Hanover. It is not the Penn Township in other counties. Hanover borough has its own page. This one is the township around it.
Houses in Penn Township
Around Hanover the township is subdivisions, roadside houses, and older farms. Basements are standard in the subdivisions, often with a sump and a finished room. Farmhouses farther out still have stone cellars. Hanover borough is denser and older in the center. A township house can see Hanover every day and still pull permits from the township. We need that distinction before we schedule the electrical inspection.
Western York County, including the Hanover area, stays in EPA Zone 1. The geology is still Piedmont shale and carbonate rock, not a different province because you are closer to Adams County. Adams County is also high-potential ground. A Hanover-area test is not optional because the house feels suburban. Closed-house winter numbers are the ones that match how the basement is used.
What the visit is usually about
Subdivision sumps are the common Penn Township system. Sub-slab depressurization seals that sump and pulls under the slab. Real-estate testing is the other frequent start on this side of the county. Hanover borough remains its own page.
Penn Township and Hanover Borough are different offices. EPA zone map covers York County, including this western township. EPA radon guidance is the system guidance. We already have a Hanover page for the borough. Do not use it for a township subdivision just because the stores are in Hanover.
