What drying runs into in Temple
Serving Temple and the surrounding area, including Lakewood Ranch, Wyndham Hill.
Local housing stock
49.4 percent of Temple's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1991, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. With the median build year at 1991 a large part of the stock was plumbed in gray polybutylene, and that material fails at the crimped fittings buried in walls and ceilings, so the loss starts in a cavity and the first sign is a stain rather than a spray.
Climate & seasonal risk
No month in Temple has a normal low below freezing, and January is the coolest at 35.7 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in October at 4.56 inches of an annual 38; rain recorded at BELTON 3.9 N 5.2 miles away and temperatures at STILLHOUSE HOLLOW DAM 9.5 miles away. October is the wettest month, which puts the heaviest rain at the end of the cooling season, and no month averages a freezing low; the building is then neither heated nor cooled, so an October loss has no background drying and runs several days longer than a midsummer one.
How water losses tend to end in Temple
- Gray poly fittings failing inside wall and ceiling cavities, so the water is in the framing before anything is visible in the room
- Whole subdivisions plumbed in the same material in the same years, so one failure is a reason to look at the rest of the house
- An October rain peak in the shoulder season, so the wettest month is also the one with neither heating nor cooling helping
