What drying runs into in East Orange
Serving East Orange and the surrounding area, including Hutton Park.
Local housing stock
Roughly 24,816 of East Orange's 29,921 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1956; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1956 with more than four in five buildings older, the roofs are flat with a parapet all round, which means the rainwater cannot run off the edge and is taken instead through openings in the roof into pipes that run down inside the building to the drainage below.
Climate & seasonal risk
June brings 4.87 of the 50.42 inches East Orange sees in a normal year, and July averages 77.9 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at HARRISON, 3.3 miles away. June is the wettest month at under five inches of a fifty inch year with three months averaging a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in warm weather; a pipe carrying that volume inside a wall is under load in the middle of the building, and a failure in it wets every floor it passes.
How water losses tend to end in East Orange
- Roof water carried down inside the building, so a failure in that pipe is in a wall rather than outside
- One pipe passing several homes, so a single failure wets a wall on every floor
- A line that only runs during rain, so the leak is intermittent and stops before anyone can find it
