Local housing stock
33.3 percent of Auburn's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 2001, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. With a median build year of 2001 and only a third of the stock older, the houses are modern slab and frame, but many of them stand with the cooling set high and the doors shut for months at a stretch, so the interior sits at a humidity where nothing releases and a wall closed damp stays that way.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 54.41 inches, 5.49 of them in March, against a warm season that peaks at 80 degrees in July; rain recorded at AUBURN 0.6 ENE 1.6 miles away and temperatures at AUBURN NO.2 1.8 miles away. March is the wettest month and no month averages a freezing low, so the heaviest rain arrives before the cooling season rather than during it; a loss in spring that is closed up before the building is properly dry then sits through a long warm summer with nothing working on it.
How water losses tend to end in Auburn
- Buildings left closed with the cooling set high, so the indoor humidity stays at a level where nothing dries between one visit and the next
- A March rain peak ahead of the warm season, so a spring loss is followed by months in which the building will not finish it
- Modern tight envelopes, so what does not leave through equipment does not leave at all
