What drying runs into in Titusville
Serving Titusville and the surrounding area, including Titusville Historic District.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Titusville were built and the answer is 1944 at the median, 93.4 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1944 with nineteen houses in twenty older, the original wood sash are still in place with storm windows fitted outside them, which leaves a sealed air space between two sheets of glass and a wooden sill at the bottom of it.
Climate & seasonal risk
June brings 4.86 of the 46.33 inches Titusville sees in a normal year, and July averages 68.9 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at TITUSVILLE WTR WKS, 1.2 miles away. June is the wettest month at under five inches of a forty-six inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the heating season is long; through all of it the space between the two windows is colder than the room and warmer than outside, which is where moisture collects.
How water losses tend to end in Titusville
- A closed space between two windows, so moisture that gets into it cannot leave until spring
- A wooden sill at the bottom of that space, so the water collects on the one part of the assembly that rots
- A condition that runs all winter, so what is found is long-standing decay rather than a recent event
