Frequently asked questions
Why is the duct between a packaged unit and a Valrico manufactured home dripping?
About one Valrico structure in seven is a manufactured home, and many are cooled by a packaged unit standing outside. The supply duct crosses a stretch of open air before it enters the skirting, and it carries air far colder than the summer air around it. Where its jacket is torn or thin, water condenses on it and drips. Rewrapping that length stops it.
Does a Valrico manufactured home need gutters?
It helps. Without them, every downpour drops the whole roof's runoff off the eave right beside the skirting, so the ground at the home's edge stays soaked and the air beneath the floor stays wet through August. A gutter that carries the water a few feet out, or a splash block under each drip line, keeps that strip drier.
When the rain will not stop in August, what happens to a Valrico septic system?
After days of August rain the soil around a drain field can hold no more water, and the wastewater from any of Valrico's some 590 homes with septic systems on record stops soaking away. It rises toward the house and out through the lowest drain, usually a shower or tub. Holding back on laundry and dishes until the ground dries gives the field room.
