What goes unnoticed in Central City

A pipe that splits while nobody is home anywhere in Central City is one call from an independent restoration contractor. About a quarter of Central City's homes are in buildings of twenty or more units, and more than two in five were built before 1940.

How old the buildings are

Just 39.1 percent of the homes in Central City are newer than 1989, with the median dating to 1968, the era that decided where these buildings' pipes run, including any that pass through unheated space. Two in five homes here are heated by electricity, and in a larger building an outage that stops the heat reaches every unit at once, occupied or not.

The freezing season

The freeze season in Central City runs 7 months of the year, with February lows at a normal 14.7 degrees, long enough for a building left heated low to lose its heat before the next visit; of 19.32 inches in a normal year, 2.52 fall in May, the wettest month, rain recorded 6.7 miles away and temperatures at COAL CREEK CANYON 9.6 miles away. May's normal low is 32.6 degrees, barely above freezing, so frost is still possible after the year's wettest weeks have begun.

Where Central City buildings fail first

  • Larger residential buildings, about a quarter of homes, where one unit's frozen line reaches the others
  • Electric heat in 39 percent of homes, which go cold in an outage in the same minute
  • Houses built before 1940, more than two in five, many with plumbing fitted along cold walls

Frequently asked questions

During a power outage, which Central City homes lose heat first?

Those heated by electricity, about two in five here, lose it immediately, and many gas furnaces stop too, since their controls and fans need power. In a larger building, an outage affects every unit at once, including empty ones where nobody will notice the temperature dropping.

Can Central City pipes still freeze after the first warm weeks of spring?

Yes. Normal nights stay below freezing into April here, and May is the wettest month of the year. A home whose owner turns the heat off at the first mild weekend may meet a hard frost weeks later.

Where does a pre-1940 Central City house tend to keep its water lines?

Often along exterior walls or through unheated spaces, since many houses of that age had plumbing fitted after they were built. Those runs are the first to freeze when the heat drops. Knowing where they are, and keeping those rooms warm, matters most in the older houses.
