What drying runs into in Cedar City
Serving Cedar City and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Cedar City were built and the answer is 1999 at the median, 32.3 percent of them finished by 1990. With a median of 1999 and under a third of the stock predating 1990, the crawl spaces were built over bare ground with no sheet laid across it, which is a reasonable decision in a place this dry and leaves the space open to whatever the soil is carrying.
Climate & seasonal risk
5 months in Cedar City have normal lows below freezing, December the coldest at 21.1 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in March at 1.42 inches of an annual 13; both figures recorded at CEDAR CITY, 1.4 miles away. March is the wettest month at under one and a half inches of a thirteen inch year with five months averaging a low below freezing, so the ground is dry almost all of the time; the assumption that built these crawls is correct nearly every year, which is why nothing about them anticipates water.
How water losses tend to end in Cedar City
- Bare earth under the floor, so water reaching the crawl goes into the ground rather than staying on a surface
- No sheet to extract from, so a loss down there has to be dried out of the soil itself
- A space designed on the assumption of dryness, so there is no drainage, no access and no allowance for water
