What drying runs into in O'Fallon
Serving O'Fallon and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Only 81.2 percent of O'Fallon's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 2000 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. With a median of 2000 and under one house in five predating 1990, the floors were framed with open-web trusses deep enough to carry the heating and cooling inside them, which puts the ductwork within the floor rather than hanging below it in the basement.
Climate & seasonal risk
May brings 5.09 of the 44.42 inches O'Fallon sees in a normal year, and July averages 77.4 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at WELDON SPRING NWS, 6.3 miles away. May is the wettest month at over five inches of a forty-four inch year with three months averaging a low below freezing, so the wet season is warm; a floor cavity opened in May is drying into humid air, and it cannot be dried by running the system because the system is inside it.
How water losses tend to end in O'Fallon
- Ducts inside the floor structure, so wet framing and the air path occupy the same space
- A system that cannot be run while the floor is wet, so the house loses heating or cooling during the work
- Open webs that let water travel the length of a truss, so the wet area follows the floor rather than the room
