About 82% of the local housing stock predates 1960, and 5% arrived in 2000 or later. Moisture testing identifies each assembly. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Portland was built in the years before 1940. Older homes can have layered finishes that conceal water behind trim. A sprinkler discharge needs careful moisture checks.
Long freezes can threaten sprinkler piping in unheated building edges. Many occupants may rent, so building management should coordinate system work and water removal.
