Myakka City: why buildings stay damp

From an air handler dripping into a ceiling to a slab that stays damp, one call anywhere in Myakka City connects you with a local pro working the area. The 34251 ZIP code area around Myakka City counts 1,314 properties with septic systems on record, each tank and field on its own lot.

The housing, by era

Myakka City lies in the 34251 ZIP code area, whose 2,299 homes include 660 finished before 1990; the area's median build year is 2002. The median home across the area dates from 2002, and where one draws its water from a private well, the pressure tank and the cold lines running from it sit in a garage or utility closet full of humid summer air, which beads on their metal and drips to the floor.

Humid months and wet months

The air over Myakka City 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; August brings 10.12 of the 61.07 inches a year, rain recorded at MYAKKA RVR SP 12.1 miles away and dewpoint 48.2 miles away. A drain field on a large, flat lot takes in more than the rain that falls on it: in an August downpour, water sheeting across the surrounding yard or pasture runs onto the field too, and by the end of the month the soil around the trenches has little room left for the house's water.

The soft spots here

  • Well pressure tanks and cold supply lines in garages and utility closets, sweating in the humid summer air and dripping onto the floor beneath
  • Septic fields on large, flat lots, among 1,314 properties on record across the ZIP code area, taking water sheeting off the surrounding ground on top of their own rain
  • Steel outbuildings fitted out as workshops or living space, where the underside of an uninsulated metal roof, chilled by the clear night sky, gathers water from the humid air and drips it onto the floor

Frequently asked questions

Why does the well tank in a garage near Myakka City drip in summer?

Because it is colder than the air around it. Well water comes up from underground far below the summer air's temperature, and the pressure tank and the lines from it stay that cool. In a garage or utility closet, humid air meets those cold surfaces and leaves water on them, which runs down and drips. An insulating jacket on the tank and foam on the pipes keep the air off the metal.

Why does a drain field on a big lot near Myakka City fill up after August storms?

It catches more than its own rain. On a large, flat lot, water from a hard August downpour sheets across the surrounding yard or pasture and runs onto the field as well. Across the 34251 ZIP code area, 1,314 properties have septic systems on record, and where a field takes that extra water, its trenches are full well before the month ends, and the house's drains slow.

Why does the inside of a metal outbuilding near Myakka City drip on clear mornings?

On a clear night the steel roof loses heat to the sky until it is colder than the humid air under it. Where the roof has no insulation, that air leaves its water on the underside of the panels, and by morning it drips onto whatever is stored or set up below. Insulation sprayed or fastened under the roof keeps the humid air from reaching the cold steel.
