What drying runs into in Forest Hills
Serving Forest Hills and the surrounding area, including Ada Township, Cascade Charter Township.
Local housing stock
The typical Forest Hills house dates to 1988, with about half of the stock (52.5 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1980s work. Around a median of 1988 with about half the stock older, the plans moved the laundry up out of the basement and put it on the main floor beside the kitchen, which places a machine holding and discharging a considerable volume directly over finished rooms below.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 39.51 inches, 4.3 of them in June, against a warm season that peaks at 72.8 degrees in July; rain recorded at ADA 1.8 W 2 miles away and temperatures at GRAND RAPIDS 5.4 miles away. June is the wettest month at under four and a half inches of a forty inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the wet season is mild and the cold season supplies dry indoor air; a floor structure wet in June is drying in the most humid month, with a finished ceiling closed underneath it.
How water losses tend to end in Forest Hills
- A washing machine on a finished floor over finished rooms, so a failure is a floor structure loss rather than a slab one
- A closed ceiling below, so water is held in the floor between two finished surfaces
- Supply hoses under constant pressure in a room closed when nobody is home, so the volume is set by how long the house was empty
