What drying runs into in Cordele
Serving Cordele and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
67 percent of Cordele's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1978, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1978 with two thirds predating 1990, the housing is small frame and brick houses, a substantial share of them without ducted central cooling, so there is no equipment running in the background and an assembly that gets damp stays damp until a machine is brought in to it.
Climate & seasonal risk
December brings 5.04 of the 50.13 inches Cordele sees in a normal year, and July averages 82.4 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at CORDELE, 2 miles away. December is the wettest month and no month averages a freezing low, so the heaviest rain lands in the mild season and the summer is hot without being the wettest part of the year; in a house with no central system neither season removes moisture on its own.
How water losses tend to end in Cordele
- Houses cooled by window units rather than ducted systems, so nothing is dehumidifying the building between losses and a damp assembly stays damp
- Rooms cooled individually with doors closed, so humidity varies from room to room and a wet area is not evened out by circulation
- A December rain peak with no freeze at either end, so the calendar never delivers a stretch that finishes a job by itself
