What goes unnoticed in Stratton

A pipe that splits while nobody is home anywhere in Stratton is one call from an independent restoration contractor. About one Stratton home in eight burns wood for heat, though most homes in this plains town use gas from a line.

How old the buildings are

Just 16.4 percent of the homes in Stratton are newer than 1989, with the median dating to 1963, the era that decided where these buildings' pipes run, including any that pass through unheated space. Nearly a third of the houses were built before 1940, and an old house kept warm by a stove cools quickly once its owner is gone for more than a day.

The freezing season

The freeze season in Stratton runs 5 months of the year, with January lows at a normal 17.7 degrees, long enough for a building left heated low to lose its heat before the next visit; of 18.81 inches in a normal year, 3.34 fall in July, the wettest month, both figures recorded at STRATTON, 0.2 miles away. January brings the coldest nights here and July the most rain, so the season when a stove must keep going is also the season when owners travel for the holidays.

Where Stratton buildings fail first

  • Wood heat in about one home in eight, which stops once the last fire burns down
  • Houses built before 1940, nearly a third, with plumbing along outside walls and in crawl spaces
  • Vacant houses off the market, which can go the winter without anyone stepping inside

Frequently asked questions

What should Stratton homeowners who heat with wood do before a trip?

Arrange a backup heat source that runs on its own, or shut off the water and drain the lines. A stove goes out within hours of the last load, and in January an unheated old house can freeze overnight. A neighbor with a key and a phone number adds a second layer of protection.

Why do old Stratton houses freeze along their outside walls?

Because their plumbing was added after they were built, and the easiest place to run it was often along an exterior wall or through a crawl space. Those runs lose heat before the rooms do. Opening cabinet doors and keeping crawl spaces closed helps.

Who checks on the empty houses in Stratton over the winter?

Usually nobody, unless the owner arranges it. A house that is not for sale or rent may have no visitors at all. Draining the lines, or asking a neighbor to look inside every week, keeps a split pipe from running for months.
