What drying runs into in Trenton
Serving Trenton and the surrounding area, including Battle Monument, Mill Hill, Central West, North Trenton, Perdicaris Place, Lamberton, East Trenton, Chambersburg.
Local housing stock
Roughly 29,261 of Trenton's 34,513 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1953; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1953 with more than four in five houses older, the houses sit on lots that drop from the street to the rear, so the same basement has only a few feet of earth against its front wall and the full height against its back one.
Climate & seasonal risk
4 months in Trenton have normal lows below freezing, January the coldest at 22.7 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in July at 4.8 inches of an annual 47.89; rain recorded at EWING TWP 1.6 SE 2 miles away and temperatures at TRENTON STATE COLLEGE 3.6 miles away. July is the wettest month at under five inches of a forty-eight inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in warm weather; the rear wall is taking ground water at depth while the front wall is barely below grade, in the same room.
How water losses tend to end in Trenton
- One basement with two very different wall conditions, so the front and the back behave nothing alike
- A rear wall at full depth taking ground water, so the load is concentrated on one side of the room
- Readings that vary widely across one space, so a single measurement describes neither end
