What drying runs into in Columbia
Serving Columbia and the surrounding area, including Eagle Park, Tanglewood, Windsor Lake Park, Wedgewood, Windsor Estates, Weddell, Briarwood, Forestwood Estates.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Columbia were built and the answer is 1980 at the median, 60.4 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1980 with six in ten houses older, a great many of the crawl spaces have been encapsulated in recent years, lined in heavy plastic and closed off with a dehumidifier running in them.
Climate & seasonal risk
July brings 5.56 of the 48.69 inches Columbia sees in a normal year, and July averages 81.6 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at COLUMBIA 3.1 E 5.2 miles away and temperatures at SANDHILL RSCH - ELGIN 6.6 miles away. July is the wettest month at 5.56 inches of a 48-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the outside air is warm and saturated for months; sealing the crawl against that is exactly why the work is done.
How water losses tend to end in Columbia
- A liner covering everything, so the structure beneath it cannot be seen
- Equipment the space now depends on, so a failed dehumidifier changes the conditions entirely
- Water trapped between liner and ground, so a leak is held rather than evaporating
