What drying runs into in Tucson

Local housing stock
Only 31.7 percent of Tucson's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1979 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1979 with nearly seven in ten houses older, the roofs are very low slope with a built-up membrane laid in layers and finished with loose gravel over the top, which protects the membrane from the sun and hides it completely from anyone looking at the roof.
Climate & seasonal risk
August brings 2.37 of the 12.14 inches Tucson sees in a normal year, and July averages 88.2 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at TUCSON 6.4 SSE 1.6 miles away and temperatures at TUCSON INTL AP 5.2 miles away. August is the wettest month at under two and a half inches of a twelve inch year and the warm season runs past a hundred degrees, so the roof spends most of the year in extreme heat and sees rain a few times in late summer; the membrane ages in that heat where nobody can inspect it.
How water losses tend to end in Tucson
- A gravel surface over the membrane, so the layer that fails cannot be seen or assessed from above
- Extreme heat aging the membrane out of sight, so failure arrives on a schedule nothing visible predicts
- Water moving between layers before it enters, so the point it comes through is not the point that failed
