What drying runs into in Iowa Colony
Serving Iowa Colony and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Only 97.5 percent of Iowa Colony's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 2015 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. With a median build year of 2015 and almost nothing predating 1990, the assemblies are uniform across the whole place: slab, engineered framing, paper-faced board, and a cooling system in a closet near the middle of the plan with its drain run to the outside through the wall.
Climate & seasonal risk
October brings 5.77 of the 53.32 inches Iowa Colony sees in a normal year, and August averages 85.1 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at HOUSTON CLOVER FLD, 12.2 miles away. October is the wettest month of a fifty-three inch year and nothing freezes, so the cooling runs for most of the calendar and so does the drain it depends on; a blockage in the humid half of the year fills a pan within a day or two rather than over a season.
How water losses tend to end in Iowa Colony
- Air handlers in interior closets, so a blocked drain puts water in the middle of the plan instead of outside the building
- Secondary pans and float switches that are painted over or disconnected, so the one safeguard against this is often not working
- A cooling season that runs most of the year, so the drain is carrying water almost continuously and a blockage shows quickly
