What drying runs into in Washington
Serving Washington and the surrounding area, including Gabby Heights, Franklin Farms, Elwood Park, Log Pile, Lincoln Hill.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Washington were built and the answer is 1942 at the median, 93.8 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1942 with nearly 94 percent of the stock older, the houses were built with an extra fixture standing free in the cellar, unenclosed and connected directly to the house drain where it leaves the building.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 72.6 degrees against 28.4; the 41.34 inches a year peak in June at 4.48, both figures recorded at WASHINGTON 3 NE, 3.1 miles away. June is the wettest month at 4.48 inches of a 41-inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain arrives in summer when ground water is highest; the house drain is under most pressure at exactly that time of year.
How water losses tend to end in Washington
- The lowest fixture in the building with nothing enclosing it, so a backup arrives in the open
- A direct connection to the main, so it takes whatever the street line sends back first
- A fixture that may be unused for years, so the trap is dry and nothing seals the line
