What fails in Crestview
Serving Crestview and the surrounding area, including Riverwood Apartment Homes.
Local housing stock
About 3,739 of the 11,554 homes in Crestview were finished before 1990, around a median of 2000; a home's age can show in where its condensate drains and what its floor sits on. The median house here dates from 2000, and where one of that era wears brick veneer, the small weep openings along its bottom course are how water leaves the gap behind the brick; mulch or soil banked over them keeps that gap, and the sheathing facing it, wet.
Climate & seasonal risk
Crestview spends two months in which the dewpoint never falls below 70 degrees, day or night, in July and August; of 68.12 inches in a normal year, 7.6 fall in July, rain recorded at CRESTVIEW 1.9 SE 1.9 miles away and dewpoint at VALPARAISO EGLIN AFB 18.7 miles away. Crestview sits on ground some 183 feet above sea level, and where a drain field runs across a slope there, July's storms push most of the household water to its lowest trench, which fills first and can seep out downhill toward the next foundation.
What keeps buildings wet here
- Weep openings at the base of brick veneer covered by mulch beds or soil, trapping water in the gap behind the brick against the wall sheathing
- Drain fields laid across a slope, among the 2,068 homes with septic systems on record, whose lowest trench takes most of the water after July storms and seeps toward the house below
- Plastic sheeting stapled behind the drywall of outside walls, where humid outdoor air that works into the wall meets the cooled plastic and runs down its back
