What drying runs into in Kansas City
Serving Kansas City and the surrounding area, including Pendleton Heights, Scarritt Point, Columbus Park, Independence Plaza, Lykins, North Indian Mound, Harlem, River Market.
Local housing stock
The typical Kansas City house dates to 1969, with about three quarters of the stock (71.4 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1960s work. Around a median of 1969 with seven in ten houses older, the waste from every floor collects in a single cast iron stack boxed into a wall and carried down to the basement, so one pipe passes through every level of the building and is enclosed for all of it.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 38.13 inches, 5.33 of them in June, against a warm season that peaks at 81 degrees in July; both figures recorded at KANSAS CITY DOWNTOWN AP, 2.5 miles away. June is the wettest month at over five inches of a thirty-eight inch year and three months average a low below freezing, so the wet season is warm and the dry season is cold; a stack chase opened in June is drying into humid air and has almost no air movement of its own, so it is dried as a closed void.
How water losses tend to end in Kansas City
- A single waste stack serving every floor, so a failure anywhere on it wets the chase from that point down
- The stack boxed into finished walls, so the wet area is a vertical chase that shows itself only where it exits at the bottom
- Drain water rather than supply water, so the materials it touched are handled as contaminated and removed rather than dried
