What drying runs into in Indian River Shores
Serving Indian River Shores and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
The typical Indian River Shores house dates to 1987, with close to three fifths of the stock (56.4 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1980s work. Around a median of 1987 with a little over half the stock older, the houses on this barrier island were built with the lowest level given over to parking and storage and the rooms people live in raised above it, which means the bottom of the building is finished to a standard that expects water.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Indian River Shores gets 56.4 inches a year with September heaviest at 7.62, and the drying season runs from a 63.5-degree January to a 83-degree August; both figures recorded at VERO BEACH 4SE, 4.2 miles away. September is the wettest month at over seven inches of a fifty-six inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the wet season runs long and warm; a lower level built to be given up still has to be dried, because the structure above it is not sacrificial at all.
How water losses tend to end in Indian River Shores
- A lowest level finished to expect water, so what is down there is simple but the structure through it is not
- Living space a full story up, so a lower-level loss does not damage finishes but does reach the floor above
- Columns and stairs passing through, so the elements carrying the house are the ones standing in the water
