What drying runs into in Fairbury
Serving Fairbury and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Roughly 1,276 of Fairbury's 1,615 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1965; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1965 with nearly four in five houses older, the basement floor drain in a good share of these houses discharges to a tile line in the ground rather than to a public sewer, which means it can only work while the soil around it has capacity.
Climate & seasonal risk
5 months in Fairbury have normal lows below freezing, January the coldest at 15.2 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in June at 4.18 inches of an annual 35.49; rain recorded at FAIRBURY WWTP 1 miles away and temperatures at CHENOA 10.6 miles away. June is the wettest month at just over four inches of a thirty-five inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in early summer when the field is at its fullest; a drain that depends on the ground taking water fails exactly when it is needed.
How water losses tend to end in Fairbury
- A floor drain discharging to ground rather than to a sewer, so it works only while the soil has capacity
- A system that backs up in the wettest weather, so it fails at the moment it is relied on
- A tile line nobody has seen, so its condition and route are unknown until something is dug
