Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
About 84% of housing units in the listed ZIP codes predate 1980. Building layers can vary, so the technician checks the actual wet assembly. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Pulaski was built in the 1970s. An added mini split may sit on a finished wall with concealed wiring. Keep clear of wet electrical areas during assessment.
Cold weather does not prevent an old AC stain from hiding damp material. Moisture readings test the condition found. Resident owners can tell the technician about earlier stains or repairs. That history helps interpret the present wet area.
