Local housing stock
Of the 7,124 homes in Johnstown, about 990 are older than 1990 and the median dates to 2007; the age of a building sets how many of its pipes run through crawl spaces, garages and outside walls. In buildings this new most plumbing runs inside heated space, so the exposure comes from occupancy: apartments empty between leases and houses left over holidays with the heat turned down.
Climate & seasonal risk
A pipe in Johnstown faces freezing nights 6 months of the year, down to a normal 12.9-degree low in January, and a split usually leaks on the thaw rather than the cold night itself; May carries 2.63 of the 14.44 inches in a normal year, rain recorded at MILLIKEN 1.3 WSW 2 miles away and temperatures 12.7 miles away. Normal nights stay below freezing from November into April here, so a newer house left for a spring-break trip in March can still meet a hard frost.
What leaves buildings exposed here
- Apartment buildings, about one home in seven, where a leak in an empty unit reaches the neighbors below
- New apartments between leases in January, when the building's newest vacancies are also its coldest
- Newer houses left for trips as late as March and April, when nights are still freezing
