What fails in Homestead
Serving Homestead and the surrounding area, including Modello.
Local housing stock
2001 is the median build year in Homestead, and 34.3 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. A fifth of the homes sit in buildings of ten or more units, and where the bathroom fans of stacked units empty into one shared shaft, a missing or stuck damper lets one household's shower steam drift back into another's bathroom, where it settles on the cooled ceiling and the mirror.
Climate & seasonal risk
Homestead spends four months in which the dewpoint never falls below 70 degrees, day or night, from June through September; of 63.64 inches in a normal year, 9.63 fall in August, rain recorded at HOMESTEAD 3.0 NW 3.3 miles away and dewpoint at HOMESTEAD AFB 4 miles away. In a house of around 2001 that keeps its original ceramic tile, the grout is the floor's open pore, and after August storms soak the soil against an outside wall, water wicking up through the slab edge shows first as a dark band of grout along that wall.
What keeps buildings wet here
- Shared exhaust shafts in buildings of ten or more units, about one home in five, where a stuck damper lets a neighbor's shower steam settle in another bathroom
- Grout lines along outside walls in houses of around 2001, darkening where August water in the soil wicks up through the slab edge
- Lawns and parking areas on land about 3 feet above sea level, where water from a heavy downpour can reach ground-floor door sills before the ground takes it
