What drying runs into in Danville
Serving Danville and the surrounding area, including Vermilion Heights.
Local housing stock
Only 7.5 percent of Danville's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1951 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1951 with over nine in ten homes predating 1990, a large share of the older houses have a small vaulted room built under the front porch off the main cellar, and that space has earth on three sides, no heat, no ventilation and frequently no light.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 75.1 degrees against 27.4; the 41.96 inches a year peak in June at 5.11, rain recorded at DANVILLE 0.6 NW 1 miles away and temperatures at DANVILLE 2 miles away. Three months with lows below freezing keep the split season short, and the June rain peak lands when the ground around a porch vault is at its warmest and wettest; that room is damp in every month of the year and a loss simply adds to a standing condition.
How water losses tend to end in Danville
- A vaulted room under the porch with earth on three sides, so the space is damp as a permanent condition and a loss cannot be read against it
- No heat or ventilation in that room, so nothing there dries without equipment placed specifically in it
- Storage kept in that space, so porous contents sit in the dampest part of the building and keep releasing into the cellar
