What drying runs into in Visalia
Serving Visalia and the surrounding area, including Ambler, Shannon Ranch, Sterling Oaks, Reimer, Campo Estates, Valley Oak, Vista del Sol, Westport Village.
Local housing stock
The typical Visalia house dates to 1988, with about half of the stock (52.3 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1980s work. Around a median of 1988 with about half the stock older, the floors are slab with carpet and a foam pad laid over them, and in air this dry the perimeter of a wet pad gives up its moisture quickly while the middle of it does not.
Climate & seasonal risk
No month in Visalia has a normal low below freezing, and December is the coolest at 37.9 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in January at 1.96 inches of an annual 10.32; both figures recorded at VISALIA, 1.6 miles away. January is the wettest month at under two inches of a ten inch year and the warm season reaches the mid-nineties, so the indoor air is extremely dry for most of the year; that dries the accessible edge of a wet floor fast and leaves the middle of it untouched.
How water losses tend to end in Visalia
- A pad that dries from its edges inward, so the perimeter reads dry over a wet middle
- Very dry air acting only where it can reach, so the contrast between the edge and the middle is unusually sharp
- Readings taken at the wall, so the conventional place to check is the least representative point on the floor
