First question at the door: where is the water coming from?

Why a Florida building stays wet: the four things that set that clock, laid out once for the whole state.

How long a Wimauma wall stays wet

Water in a ceiling, wall or slab anywhere in Wimauma is one call away from a local restoration pro. Half of Wimauma's housing was built in 2016 or later, so half its slabs and ducts have been through ten summers or fewer.

The structures themselves

Built around a median year of 2016, under a third of the housing (6.7 percent) in Wimauma is older than 1990, so much of it was fitted for cooling the way builders of the mid 2010s went about it. Where a new house brings outdoor air in through a fresh-air duct tied to its return, the cooling takes in a steady stream of the summer's humid air along with the room air, and on mild, muggy days when the system runs only briefly, much of that water stays in the house.

Weather behind the risk

Wimauma spends two months in which the dewpoint never falls below 70 degrees, day or night, in July and August; of 54.45 inches in a normal year, 9.96 fall in August, rain recorded at SUN CITY CENTER 1.0 NE 4.1 miles away and dewpoint 24.2 miles away. A bath fan ending at a soffit vent pushes shower steam out under the eave, where the attic's own intake vents can draw it straight back in, so through August, the wettest month, the air around the attic ducts gets wetter still.

What to check in Wimauma

  • Fresh-air ducts tied into the return on newly built houses, drawing humid outdoor air into a system that may run too briefly to dry it
  • Bath fans that end at a soffit vent, whose exhaust is drawn back into the attic through the intake vents beside it
  • A drain field at any of the 259 homes with septic systems on record, where new lots next door, graded higher, shed their August runoff onto it

Frequently asked questions

Why does a new Wimauma house feel humid on mild, muggy days?

Where a new house has a fresh-air duct tied into its return, the cooling draws a steady stream of outdoor air in with the room air. On a hot afternoon the system runs long enough to dry it, but on a mild, muggy day it runs only briefly, and much of the water in that outdoor air stays in the rooms. A damper on the fresh-air duct, or a dehumidifier, handles those days.

Can steam from a bath fan get back into the attic of a new Wimauma house?

It can, where the fan's duct ends at a vent in the soffit. The exhaust leaves under the eave, right beside the intake vents that feed the attic its air, and some of it is drawn straight back up. Through August that adds shower steam to attic air already wetter than the ducts running through it. Ducting the fan through the roof or a wall sends it clear.

Can a newer lot next door send water onto a Wimauma drain field?

It can. Wimauma has 259 homes with septic systems on record, and where a neighboring lot has been built up and graded higher, its August runoff heads downhill onto the lower yard. If the drain field sits on that side, it takes the neighbor's rain on top of its own and the household's water. A swale along the property line carries that runoff past the field.
