Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Glenn Dale were built and the answer is 1990 at the median, 50.4 percent of them finished by 1990. With a median of 1990 and about half the stock older, the houses sit over iron-bearing ground, and the drainage laid around their footings carries water that deposits as soon as it meets air in the pipe.
Climate & seasonal risk
July brings 4.51 of the 44.02 inches Glenn Dale sees in a normal year, and July averages 77.4 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at BELTSVILLE, 7.7 miles away. July is the wettest month at 4.51 inches of a 44-inch year and three months average a low below freezing, so the drain runs through a long warm season; deposition is faster in warm water, so the clogging builds fastest when the drain is most needed.
How water losses tend to end in Glenn Dale
- A drain that fills from the inside, so it fails by blocking rather than by breaking
- Deposit that hardens, so it cannot simply be flushed once it has been left
- A gradual loss of capacity, so the basement gets wetter over years with nothing having changed
