Where moisture hides in Wichita Falls homes
Winter condensation in the attic
Warm, moist indoor air leaking into a cold attic condenses on the roof sheathing. The result is frost in January and dark staining on the underside of the roof by spring. Here about 60 days a year drop to 32°F or below.
Humid summers in basements
Basements stay cool, so humid summer air that reaches them hits the dew point. Musty basements and mold on stored items are the classic sign. Summer mornings here average 79 percent humidity.
Snowmelt and spring rain
Water that pools against the foundation during the thaw finds cracks and gaps and wicks into finished basements. A normal year brings 28.92 inches of precipitation.
Tight houses with little fresh air
Homes sealed up for winter trap cooking and shower moisture. Windows run with condensation and the corners of exterior walls grow mold. Winter afternoons here average 54 percent humidity outdoors.
