What drying runs into in Edina
Serving Edina and the surrounding area, including Normandale Park, The Heights, Brookview Heights, Creek Valley, Lake Cornelia, Prospect Knolls, Bredesen Park, Cahill.
Local housing stock
The typical Edina house dates to 1971, with over four fifths of the stock (78.3 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1970s work. Around a median of 1971 with nearly four in five houses older, the lower levels are finished directly over a slab poured onto ground that never warms, so the floor of the most-used space in the house is also the one surface that stays cold in every season.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 34.02 inches, 4.89 of them in July, against a warm season that peaks at 74.3 degrees in July; rain recorded at EDINA 1.9 SSE 1.8 miles away and temperatures at MINNEAPOLIS/ST PAUL AP 6.4 miles away. July is the wettest month at under five inches of a thirty-four inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the one humid stretch of the calendar is short and lands in midsummer; that is exactly when a cold lower-level slab becomes a condensing surface, and drying down there means warming the floor rather than only moving air.
How water losses tend to end in Edina
- A slab that stays cold all year, so moisture in the air collects on the floor rather than leaving with it
- Finishes laid directly on that slab, so the covering traps what condenses underneath it
- A short humid season landing in midsummer, so the worst conditions for a lower level arrive in the months people assume are the driest
