Local housing stock
86.5 percent of New Haven's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1954, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1954 with nearly nine in ten predating 1990, a good share of this housing is in larger buildings cooled centrally, which puts a tower and its pumps on the roof with water circulating between it and the plant below.
Climate & seasonal risk
April brings 4.19 of the 41.79 inches New Haven sees in a normal year, and July averages 73.9 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at NEW HAVEN TWEED AP, 3.8 miles away. April is the wettest month at 4.19 inches of a 41.79-inch year and four months average lows below freezing, so the system is drained and refilled around a winter shutdown; the failures cluster at the start and end of the season rather than during it.
How water losses tend to end in New Haven
- A quantity of circulating water standing on the roof of an occupied building
- Pipework running down through the building from the tower to the plant
- A seasonal system, so a fault that developed over winter appears on the first warm day
