Why a Florida building stays wet: the four things that set that clock, laid out once for the whole state.

Where water lingers in Daytona Beach

From an air handler dripping in Lakeside Village and Pelican Bay to a slab that stays damp elsewhere in Daytona Beach, one call connects you with a local pro working the area. Nearly 29 percent of Daytona Beach homes are in buildings of ten or more units, on ground about 15 feet above sea level.

Age of the homes

About 29,033 of the 42,158 homes in Daytona Beach were finished before 1990, around a median of 1981; a home's age can show in where its condensate drains and what its floor sits on. Nearly 29 percent of the homes here are in buildings of ten or more units, and where a row of two-story units shares one attic, each unit's air handler and ducts sit in air common to all of them, so water from a sweating duct or an overflowing pan above one unit can spread across the attic floor and stain a neighbor's ceiling.

Rain and humidity

The air over Daytona Beach carries the most water in August, when the normal dewpoint reaches 74.4 degrees, and in July and August it does not drop below 70 even overnight; September brings 7.15 of the 51.25 inches a year, rain recorded at DAYTONA BEACH INTL AP 3 miles away and dewpoint 29.7 miles away. On ground about 15 feet above sea level, September's rain soaks the strip of soil between a building and its parking lot, and where a ground-floor unit's slab sits little higher than that strip, the slab draws the water up into the carpet pad and the baseboards.

Leaks that go unseen here

  • Shared attics over rows of two-story units, where one unit's sweating duct or overflowing pan wets the attic floor and shows in a neighbor's ceiling
  • Carpet and pad laid over ground-floor slabs, holding water drawn up from below against the cooled room for weeks after September's rain
  • Covered upper walkways on garden apartment buildings, where a walkway slab that has settled toward the building sends rain back to the entry doors

Frequently asked questions

Why is there a stain on a Daytona Beach apartment ceiling when the unit's own air handler is dry?

Nearly 29 percent of Daytona Beach homes are in buildings of ten or more units. Where a row of two-story units shares one attic, every unit's air handler and ducts sit in the same space, and water from a sweating duct or an overflowing pan can run along the attic floor before it soaks through. The stain may appear over a neighbor's rooms, so the search starts in the attic, not the closet.

Why does the carpet in a ground-floor Daytona Beach apartment feel damp after a wet September?

Daytona Beach stands about 15 feet above sea level. When September's rain soaks the soil beside a building, a ground-floor slab set close to that soil can draw the water upward, and the carpet pad laid on it holds that water against the cooled room. The dampness tends to be worst along the outside walls. Lifting a corner of the carpet near an outside wall shows whether the pad is wet.

Why does rain reach the front door of an upstairs Daytona Beach apartment?

Where a garden apartment building reaches its upper units by a covered walkway and the walkway slab has settled toward the building over the years, rain blown onto it runs back toward the entry doors instead of off the edge, and it collects at the door sill. A puddle that forms against the wall rather than at the outer edge after a storm shows which way the walkway now falls.
