Where water lingers in Mulberry

From an air handler dripping in Fuller Heights and Willow Oak to a slab that stays damp elsewhere in Mulberry, one call connects you with a local pro working the area. Factory-built and set on piers, some 870 manufactured homes make up more than two in five of Mulberry's housing units.

Age of the homes

1989 is the median build year in Mulberry, and 53.2 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. Manufactured homes outnumber two in five here, and where an older one has a floor register in its bathroom, shower steam drifts down into the belly duct each time the cooling cycles off and settles on the metal there.

Rain and humidity

The air over Mulberry carries the most water in August, when the normal dewpoint reaches 75.2 degrees, and in July and August it does not drop below 70 even overnight; July brings 8.82 of the 55.97 inches a year, rain recorded 3.9 miles away and dewpoint 33.9 miles away. Some 115 feet above sea level and far from any tide, the town takes July's water from the sky and the air, and where a manufactured home has a bay window jutting past the belly, the cooled floor of that bay sits bare to the humid air beneath and sweats on its underside.

Leaks that go unseen here

  • Bathroom floor registers in manufactured homes, more than two in five of the town's housing, where shower steam sinks into the belly duct whenever the cooling stops
  • Bay and box windows that project past the belly of a manufactured home, leaving a small cooled floor with no wrap or insulation between it and the damp air below
  • Bathrooms without an exhaust fan ducted outdoors, where the steam has only the floor register and the room's coolest surfaces to go to

Frequently asked questions

Can shower steam get into the ducts under a Mulberry manufactured home?

Where the bathroom has a floor register, yes. More than two in five Mulberry homes are manufactured, with their supply ducts in the belly beneath the floor. When the cooling cycles off, warm steam from the shower settles into the still register and down into the duct, where it condenses on the metal. A rusted register or a damp spot below the bathroom is the sign.

What dampens the floor of a bay window in a Mulberry manufactured home?

Where a bay or box window projects past the side of the home, its small floor hangs outside the belly wrap and often has little insulation beneath it. The room cools that floor from above while humid July air moves under it, so water condenses on the underside and soaks into the decking. Insulating and closing in the bay's underside keeps that air off it.

Should a bathroom in a Mulberry manufactured home have its own exhaust fan?

It helps a great deal. Without a fan ducted outdoors, each shower's steam settles on the room's coolest surfaces and, where there is a floor register, down into the duct below. A fan run for a while after each shower carries that water outside instead. Mulberry stands some 115 feet above sea level, so water in a home here comes from inside or above, not the tide.
