ACS figures place roughly 58% of local housing units in construction from 2000 onward. A new house can still have an overflowing AC pan. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Epping was built in the 2000s. Tight floor finishes can slow evaporation from a wet subfloor. Moisture readings help decide whether access is needed.
