What drying runs into in Bloomington
Serving Bloomington and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Bloomington were built and the answer is 1972 at the median, 82.5 percent of them finished by 1990. The median house dates to 1972 and 82.5 percent predate 1990, frame ramblers and split levels over full basements, so the recurring losses are rim joist splits and finished-basement partitions rather than anything at roof level.
Climate & seasonal risk
July brings 4.89 of the 34.02 inches Bloomington sees in a normal year, and July averages 74.3 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at EDINA 1.9 SSE 2.9 miles away and temperatures at MINNEAPOLIS/ST PAUL AP 5.6 miles away. July is the wettest month at 4.89 inches and the year totals just 34.02, with five months below freezing and January lows near 9 degrees, so the winters are severe and the heating season supplies exceptionally dry indoor air.
How water losses tend to end in Bloomington
- Rim joists splitting where a line runs behind packed insulation on the cold side
- Split-level landings where water crosses two floor levels before it is found
- Finished basements with partitions fixed tight to poured walls
