What drying runs into in Northfield
Serving Northfield and the surrounding area, including Northfield Plaza, Tudor Terrace, Ridgewood Heights, Oakcrest, Atlantic City Suburban Estates, Heather Croft, Atlantic City Hills, Penny Point Park Apartments.
Local housing stock
The typical Northfield house dates to 1965, with over four fifths of the stock (80.8 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly mid 1960s work. Around a median of 1965 with eight in ten predating 1990, a good share of these houses have a framed and clad chimney enclosure rather than a masonry stack, and the top of that enclosure is closed with a single sheet of metal.
Climate & seasonal risk
August brings 4.92 of the 47.83 inches Northfield sees in a normal year, and July averages 78.2 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at EGG HARBOR TWP 1.3 NW 4 miles away and temperatures at MARGATE 3.6 miles away. August is the wettest month at 4.92 inches of a 47.83-inch year and two months average lows below freezing, so the cap takes heavy summer rain and salt-laden air off the bay; both work on sheet metal faster here than they would inland.
How water losses tend to end in Northfield
- One sheet of metal closing the top of a hollow enclosure, with a whole roof's exposure
- Corrosion beginning on the underside, where condensation collects and nothing is seen
- An enclosure that runs down inside the building, so water entering at the top goes with it
