What drying runs into in Barnstable
Serving Barnstable and the surrounding area, including Mills Village.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Barnstable were built and the answer is 1978 at the median, 78.5 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1978 with nearly eight in ten houses older, the outdoor shower is standard rather than a luxury here, fixed to an exterior wall with its supply run through that wall and its drain going into the sand below.
Climate & seasonal risk
4 months in Barnstable have normal lows below freezing, January the coldest at 22.3 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in December at 5.61 inches of an annual 51.9; rain recorded at BARNSTABLE 3.6 W 2.4 miles away and temperatures at HYANNIS 2.7 miles away. December is the wettest month at 5.61 inches of a 52-inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the shower is in use through a warm season and then must be drained before a real freeze arrives.
How water losses tend to end in Barnstable
- A supply line passing through the wall, so there is a penetration low on an outside elevation
- A line that must be drained each autumn, so the failures cluster at the first hard freeze
- Water discharging at the foundation daily all summer, so the ground beside the wall stays saturated
