What drying runs into in Auburn
Serving Auburn and the surrounding area, including South Auburn, Downtown, Emerald Pointe, Shag - Auburn Court, Forest Villa, Rivers Bend, Burndale Homes, Stuck.
Local housing stock
Roughly 15,350 of Auburn's 31,800 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1991; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. With a median of 1991 and under half the stock older, the upper floors in a lot of this housing carry a thin poured topping over the sheathing for sound, and that layer is porous and slow; it absorbs what lands on it and then feeds it steadily down into the wood underneath.
Climate & seasonal risk
November brings 8.46 of the 54.93 inches Auburn sees in a normal year, and July averages 67.8 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at LAKELAND NORTH 0.5 ENE 3.3 miles away and temperatures at KENT 8 miles away. November is the wettest month at over eight inches of a fifty-five inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the wet season runs long and mild with no cold, dry stretch anywhere in it; a poured topping wet in November is drying into outdoor air that is never drier than the building, so it is all done mechanically.
How water losses tend to end in Auburn
- A poured topping over the floor sheathing, so water is held in a porous layer directly against the wood rather than running off it
- A layer that must be removed to dry what is under it, so the floor structure cannot be reached without taking the topping up
- Toppings that read damp for weeks, so the readings keep a job open long after the room looks finished
