Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Smyrna were built and the answer is 2000 at the median, 34.2 percent of them finished by 1990. With a median of 2000 and only a third of the stock predating 1990, the subdivisions went up fast, and the weather barrier behind the siding was stapled on in courses that have to overlap downward to work at all.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 55.03 inches, 5.33 of them in May, against a warm season that peaks at 77.7 degrees in July; rain recorded at SMYRNA 3.0 ESE 3.3 miles away and temperatures at SMYRNA 6S 4.4 miles away. May is the wettest month at 5.33 inches of a 55-inch year and three months average a low below freezing, so heavy warm rain falls on walls in a growing season; anything getting behind the siding there stays warm and damp rather than freezing dry.
How water losses tend to end in Smyrna
- A barrier that works by lapping, so one course fitted the wrong way reverses it
- Water directed into the wall rather than out of it, so the fault delivers rather than merely failing
- A layer buried behind the siding, so it cannot be seen or corrected without stripping the wall
