Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The 4,370 housing units across the mapped area include many floor plans, so crews assess each loss on site. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Pocono Lake was built in the 1980s. Subfloor seams can allow wastewater to move beyond the first visible spot. Moisture readings help show whether the floor assembly is affected.
Frozen ground may affect a specialist approach to the system, but it does not change Category 3 precautions inside.
