What fails in Lithia
Serving Lithia and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
The 33547 ZIP code area around Lithia has a median home built in 2007, and 14.3 percent of its homes date from before 1990. Much of the area's housing is recent, and where a two-story house of that era has its upstairs air handler in a hall closet, the condensate line may run down inside an interior wall to reach a drain, so a joint that lets go wets that wall from within, a floor below the unit.
Climate & seasonal risk
Lithia spends two months in which the dewpoint never falls below 70 degrees, day or night, in July and August; of 57.15 inches in a normal year, 9.66 fall in August, rain recorded at BLOOMINGDALE 7.6 ESE 2.2 miles away and dewpoint 23.6 miles away. Beyond any tide at about 106 feet above sea level, a house here meets August's water at the base of its stucco, where sod or mulch built up against the wall keeps the lowest course wet between storms.
What keeps buildings wet here
- Condensate lines from upstairs air handlers run down inside the interior walls of two-story houses, where a loose joint wets the wall a floor below
- Stucco walls whose weep screed at the base is buried under sod, mulch or pavers, holding August rain behind the stucco at the bottom of the wall
- Drain fields at the 817 properties across the ZIP code area with septic systems on record, taking August's rain along with the household's water
