Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Approximately 20% of homes in the selected ZIP area are owner occupied. Homeowners can keep drying records with any insurance claim. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Bronx was built in the 1950s. Older homes can have layered finishes that hide moisture. A crew checks behind trim when AC water reaches a wall.
In colder regions, a closet unit may be used only part of the year. A new puddle still calls for extraction and drying. A high share of rented housing can make an AC leak cross several responsibilities. The occupant should alert management and keep clear of unsafe areas.
