Damp buildings in Zephyrhills

Across Fort King Acres and Cunningham Estates and the rest of Zephyrhills, a building still wet days after a leak is one phone call from a local pro. Zephyrhills' housing study listed 10 mobile home parks and five mobile home or RV subdivisions in the city in 1995, holding 2,102 units.

What the homes date from

1990 is the median build year in Zephyrhills, and 49.8 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. More than a quarter of the homes are manufactured, and where homes in one of the city's parks stand only a few feet apart, the strip between them stays shaded and still, so the siding, skirting and ground on those facing sides keep the summer's rain long after the open sides have dried.

The months that matter

The air over Zephyrhills 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 9.5 of the 56.16 inches a year, rain recorded at ZEPHYRHILLS 0.9 ENE 0.9 miles away and dewpoint 29.3 miles away. The city's housing study describes many very small homes first built as seasonal residences and later turned into rentals, and where one is cooled through July, the wettest month, by a single window or wall unit, the rooms beyond its reach hold the outdoor air's water against walls the cooled room chills from the other side.

The usual sources here

  • Manufactured homes set a few feet apart in the city's parks, where the shaded, still strip between them keeps siding, skirting and ground wet after rain
  • Small homes first built as seasonal residences and cooled by one window or wall unit, where the uncooled rooms' humid air condenses on walls shared with the cooled room
  • Where one of those small homes has little insulation in its walls, the cooled inside finish sits close to the outdoor air and its back face gathers water

Frequently asked questions

Why does the side of a Zephyrhills park home facing its neighbor stay wet?

More than a quarter of the homes in Zephyrhills are manufactured, many in parks where homes stand only a few feet apart. The strip between two homes gets little sun or breeze, so after a July storm the siding, skirting and ground on those facing sides stay wet long after the open sides dry, and the humid air there moves under both floors.

Why is one room damp in a small Zephyrhills home cooled by a single wall unit?

The city's housing study describes many very small homes first built for seasonal residents and later rented year-round. Where one is cooled by a single window or wall unit, the rooms beyond its reach keep the outdoor air's humidity. Their side of any wall shared with the cooled room runs colder than that air, so water condenses on it. A second unit or a dehumidifier in those rooms ends it.

What happens inside the thin walls of an older Zephyrhills cottage in summer?

Where one of the city's small, older homes has little insulation in its walls, the inside finish sits only a few inches from the outdoor air. With the cooling on, the back of that finish runs colder than the humid air reaching the wall cavity, and water gathers there. Bowed paneling or soft drywall along exterior walls, especially low down, is the sign.
