What drying runs into in Olympia Fields
Serving Olympia Fields and the surrounding area, including Graymoor.
Local housing stock
Only 40.2 percent of Olympia Fields's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1980 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1980 with about six in ten houses older, the houses are big enough that the heating was divided into zones with separate controls, which means part of the building can be shut down and left cold for months while the rest is lived in normally.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 42.1 inches, 4.91 of them in June, against a warm season that peaks at 73.9 degrees in July; both figures recorded at PARK FOREST, 2 miles away. Five months average a low below freezing here, and that length is what matters rather than the June rain peak; a wing that has been turned down spends the whole of that stretch at a temperature nobody is watching, and the plumbing in it is on the same schedule.
How water losses tend to end in Olympia Fields
- Zones that can be shut down independently, so part of an occupied house runs cold all winter
- Plumbing that was not zoned with the heating, so lines run through spaces the system is no longer warming
- A failure in a closed-off wing, so it runs unattended in a house where somebody is home
