What drying runs into in DuBois
Serving DuBois and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in DuBois were built and the answer is 1948 at the median, 89 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1948 with nearly nine in ten homes predating 1990, the houses were built to be heated by a single source and have had systems added piecemeal since, so most of them have a back room, a landing or a rear addition that never gets properly warm and that room behaves like a different building.
Climate & seasonal risk
5 months in DuBois have normal lows below freezing, January the coldest at 17.4 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in June at 4.66 inches of an annual 42.42; both figures recorded at DUBOIS JEFFERSON CO AP, 8.4 miles away. Five months with lows below freezing and a warm season that peaks near 79 degrees mean there is no hot stretch at any point in the year, so an unheated or underheated room has nothing working for it in any month and a wall in one will hold its moisture indefinitely.
How water losses tend to end in DuBois
- Heat added room by room over decades, so every house has a cold room where drying stalls regardless of the equipment used
- A warm season peaking near 79 degrees, so even summer offers no stretch that would dry a cold room passively
- Rear additions on shallow foundations, so the coldest room is often also the one closest to the ground
