What drying runs into in Johnson City
Serving Johnson City and the surrounding area, including Towne Acres, Greenfields, North Hills, Camelot, Charbray, Fairlawn, Greenacres, Princeton Hills.
Local housing stock
The typical Johnson City house dates to 1983, with close to three fifths of the stock (59.1 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1980s work. Around a median of 1983 with about six in ten houses older, the houses sit across slopes with a crawl space rather than a basement, and because the ground falls away the space is a wedge: high enough to stand at one end and barely a foot and a half at the other.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 74.5 degrees against 35.9; the 48.43 inches a year peak in July at 5.3, rain recorded at GRAY 1.5 E 6.3 miles away and temperatures at ELIZABETHTON 7.4 miles away. July is the wettest month at over five inches of a forty-eight inch year with three months averaging a low below freezing, so the wet season is warm and the crawl is at its most humid then; the shallow end of that wedge has the least air movement and the most ground contact per foot of space.
How water losses tend to end in Johnson City
- A crawl that is a wedge rather than a uniform space, so conditions at one end are nothing like the other
- A shallow end that cannot be worked in, so the part with the worst conditions is the part hardest to reach
- Water running to the low end of the wedge, so the deepest part collects everything and the shallow part stays damp
