What drying runs into in Albuquerque
Serving Albuquerque and the surrounding area, including Martineztown-Santa Barbara, Old Town, Los Candelarias, Netherwood Park, Los Duranes, Silver Hill, Barelas, Los Griegos.
Local housing stock
The typical Albuquerque house dates to 1982, with close to three fifths of the stock (61.8 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1980s work. Slab-on-grade houses with stucco over frame or block, flat or low-pitch roofs, and tile or concrete floors are the ordinary stock, so a loss is usually a roof or an evaporative-cooler line rather than a basement, and the drying runs on the ceiling cavity and the slab in air that helps at every step.
Climate & seasonal risk
5 months in Albuquerque have normal lows below freezing, December the coldest at 20.6 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in July at 1.81 inches of an annual 10.3; rain recorded at ALBUQUERQUE 1.7 SSE 2.1 miles away and temperatures at RIO GRANDE NATURE CTR 2.7 miles away. With barely ten inches of rain a year and dry air in every month, a sealed room here reaches the dry standard faster than almost anywhere, while five months of freezing lows put rooftop cooler lines and exposed supply lines on the winter calendar.
How water losses tend to end in Albuquerque
- Flat roofs ponding a July monsoon storm, so the ceiling cavity is opened and the soaked insulation comes out before the roof is patched
- Rooftop evaporative-cooler lines splitting in a freeze or leaking in spring, so the ceiling below is dried before the unit is reconnected
- Tile over a wet slab hiding a plumbing leak, so the floor is lifted where the slab reads wet and the concrete is dried directly
