What drying runs into in Greenacres
Serving Greenacres and the surrounding area, including Covered Bridge.
Local housing stock
The typical Greenacres house dates to 1987, with close to three fifths of the stock (61 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1980s work. Around a median of 1987 with six in ten homes predating 1990, the houses are concrete block with board fixed to furring strips on the inside face, and the supply lines were run in that shallow space, so a leak is confined to a gap of about an inch with masonry on one side and finish on the other.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 66.27 inches, 10.43 of them in August, against a warm season that peaks at 83.2 degrees in August; rain recorded at ABERDEEN 4.2 NNW 2.5 miles away and temperatures at WEST PALM BEACH INTL AP 4.6 miles away. August brings over ten inches of a sixty-six inch year, and nothing freezes; a furring space taking water in that month has masonry on one face that is already cool and damp and a sealed finish on the other.
How water losses tend to end in Greenacres
- Supply lines run in a shallow furring space, so a leak fills a gap barely an inch wide and shows at the base of the wall rather than at the fitting
- Block on one side of that gap and board on the other, so neither face gives the water a route out
- Furring strips fixed flat against the masonry, so the wood in the wall is in permanent contact with a cool damp surface
