What drying runs into in Wildwood
Serving Wildwood and the surrounding area, including Diamond Beach, Seapointe Village.
Local housing stock
Only 35.8 percent of Wildwood's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1976 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1976 with nearly two thirds of the stock older, a large part of the island stock began as seasonal cottages and had heating, insulation and year-round plumbing added afterward rather than built in from the start.
Climate & seasonal risk
March brings 4.45 of the 44.1 inches Wildwood sees in a normal year, and July averages 76.9 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at WILDWOOD CREST 0.1 WSW 1.6 miles away and temperatures at CAPE MAY 2 NW 6.8 miles away. March is the wettest month at 4.45 inches of a 44-inch year and two months average a low below freezing, so the cold snaps are few and short; a building that was never meant to face them has no margin when one arrives.
How water losses tend to end in Wildwood
- Supply pipes in walls with no insulation behind them, so a short cold snap reaches them
- Heating added to a building designed without it, so the warm air does not reach everywhere the pipes do
- Two freezing months a year, so nothing here is set up for a cold that arrives rarely
