What drying runs into in Livonia
Serving Livonia and the surrounding area, including Rosedale Gardens.
Local housing stock
Roughly 34,564 of Livonia's 39,665 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1964; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1964 with nearly nine in ten houses older, the attics are reached by a pull-down stair set into the hallway ceiling, a plywood panel with a wooden ladder folded onto it and no insulation on either side.
Climate & seasonal risk
May brings 3.61 of the 33.02 inches Livonia sees in a normal year, and July averages 71.4 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at FARMINGTON, 4.8 miles away. May is the wettest month at 3.61 inches of a 33-inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the house is heated hard for half the year; warm wet air from inside meets a cold attic at that panel every day of that stretch.
How water losses tend to end in Livonia
- An uninsulated panel in a heated ceiling, so the coldest interior surface is in the hallway
- Air moving up through the gaps around it, so moisture is carried into a cold attic continuously
- Condensation and frost forming above the panel, so it drips back down when a thaw arrives
