What drying runs into in Highland Park
Serving Highland Park and the surrounding area, including Knox.
Local housing stock
The typical Highland Park house dates to 1977, with roughly two thirds of the stock (66.1 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1970s work. Around a median of 1977 but with a great deal of the stock far older and rebuilt inside more than once, a single wall can hold original galvanized, later copper and recent plastic joined together, and it is the transitions rather than the runs that let go.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 41.38 inches, 4.77 of them in May, against a warm season that peaks at 87.3 degrees in July; rain recorded at DALLAS 2.7 WNW 1.1 miles away and temperatures at DALLAS LOVE FLD 3.5 miles away. May is the wettest month and no month averages a freezing low, so there is no split season to speak of and losses are spread evenly through the year; the hot dry stretch from June to September is the only part of the calendar that helps a drying run along.
How water losses tend to end in Highland Park
- Several generations of pipe joined inside one wall, so the failure is at a transition fitting rather than along a run
- Large houses with long horizontal runs above finished ceilings, so water travels a long way before it appears anywhere
- Heavily finished interiors with stone, millwork and plaster, so the material that gets wet is expensive to remove and worth drying in place
