What drying runs into in West Haven
Serving West Haven and the surrounding area, including West River.
Local housing stock
Only 9.8 percent of West Haven's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1959 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1959 with nine in ten houses older, the bathrooms were built with tile bedded in a thick mortar layer over the subfloor rather than bonded to a board, and that bed is a slab in its own right: heavy, absorbent, and sitting directly on the floor structure.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 41.79 inches, 4.19 of them in April, against a warm season that peaks at 73.9 degrees in July; both figures recorded at NEW HAVEN TWEED AP, 4.2 miles away. April is the wettest month at just over four inches of a forty-two inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in a cool spring when the building is still being heated; a mortar bed wet in that stretch releases very slowly, and the timber beneath it slower still.
How water losses tend to end in West Haven
- Tile set in a thick mortar bed, so the floor holds many times the water a bonded tile floor would
- A bed sitting directly on the floor structure, so the timber beneath it is wet from above with no gap and no air
- A layer that has to be broken out to reach what is under it, so the removal is heavy work before any drying starts
