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

Hallandale Beach: why buildings stay damp

From an air handler dripping in Highland Lakes and Skylake to a slab that stays damp elsewhere in Hallandale Beach, one call connects you with a local pro working the area. Three of four Hallandale Beach homes are in buildings of ten or more units, and about one in four is kept for seasonal use.

The housing, by era

1975 is the median build year in Hallandale Beach, and 81.6 percent of the stock went up before 1990, an age that tends to settle whether the ductwork runs overhead through the attic or below the floor. Three homes in four here are in buildings of ten or more units, and where a building of the mid-1970s has its flat roof laid directly over the top-floor ceiling, sun on a rain-soaked roof drives the water in it downward, toward the cooled rooms, and it condenses on the back of the ceiling below.

Humid months and wet months

Hallandale Beach spends four months in which the dewpoint never falls below 70 degrees, day or night, from June through September; of 65.04 inches in a normal year, 8.84 fall in June, rain recorded 3.1 miles away and dewpoint 17.3 miles away. About one home in four is held for seasonal use, and through June, the wettest month, a closed unit with its cooling set high and its bedroom, bath and closet doors shut leaves those rooms out of reach of the return air, so they hold the season's humidity while the open rooms stay drier.

The soft spots here

  • Top-floor units under flat roofs in mid-1970s buildings, where sun on a wet roof drives its water down toward the cooled ceiling and it condenses there
  • Seasonal units, about one in four homes, closed with interior doors shut, leaving bedrooms, baths and closets cut off from the return air all summer
  • Laundry rooms shared by a floor or a building, where dryers and washers fill a small room with water vapor that settles on its walls and the units beside it

Frequently asked questions

If the roof does not leak, what stains a top-floor Hallandale Beach ceiling?

Three homes in four in Hallandale Beach are in buildings of ten or more units. Where a building of the mid-1970s has its flat roof laid directly over the top-floor ceiling, rain soaks into the roofing, and the sun then drives that water downward toward the cooled rooms. It condenses on the back of the ceiling, so a stain can appear on a dry day with no hole in the roof.

How should the doors be left in a Hallandale Beach unit closed for the summer?

With the cooling set high in a home held for seasonal use, as about one in four here are, the system runs only now and then, and only the air it can reach gets dried. A bedroom, bath or closet with its door shut sits outside that reach and holds the humid air all season. Leaving interior doors and closet doors open lets the return air draw from every room.

Why is the wall next to a shared laundry room damp in a Hallandale Beach building?

A laundry room shared by a floor or a whole building puts the water from many loads into a small space: washers left open, dryers venting warm, damp air, and wet floors. Where that room is not cooled, the vapor settles on its walls and works into the walls it shares with the units beside it. A damp patch on the unit side of that wall usually traces to the laundry room.
