What drying runs into in Bel Air South
Serving Bel Air South and the surrounding area, including Kings Charter, Parsons Ridge, Harold Heights, Bright Oaks, Northridge, Glenangus, Hunters Run, Glenwood.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Bel Air South were built and the answer is 1991 at the median, 46.9 percent of them finished by 1990. With a median of 1991 and under half the stock older, a large part of the newer building here went up as attached rows rather than detached houses, and the walls between them are shared; a loss in a middle home has no outside face to open and is reached only through the neighbors on either side.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 50.54 inches, 5.59 of them in July, against a warm season that peaks at 77.1 degrees in July; rain recorded at KINGSVILLE 2.5 NNE 4.9 miles away and temperatures at ABERDEEN PHILLIPS FLD 7.9 miles away. July is the wettest month at over five inches of a fifty-one inch year and three months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain arrives in the warm humid half of the year; a shared wall opened in July is drying into air that offers nothing, and the equipment has to hold conditions in more than one home at once.
How water losses tend to end in Bel Air South
- Shared walls between homes, so the assembly that got wet belongs to two households and is opened from both
- Middle-of-row homes with no exterior wall to work from, so all access is internal and has to be arranged before anything starts
- Water crossing a shared floor structure, so a neighbor with no visible damage still has a wet assembly
