What Elk River homeowners should know about walk-in tubs

The median home in Elk River was built in 1997, and about 26% were built before 1980. Many homes of this age still have their first kitchen or bathroom. Decide early whether you want to move fixtures, since that changes the permit and the scope.

The U.S. Department of Energy places Sherburne County in climate zone 6A (cold, humid). In a damp climate, a bathroom exhaust fan that vents outside (not into the attic) helps prevent mold. Cold winters make exterior walls matter. If walls are opened, ask whether insulation will be added before they are closed.

About 68% of homes in Elk River are single-family houses, and about 79% of occupied homes are lived in by their owners.
