Mentz climate
by the numbers
Mentz's unique plumbing challenges
About 122 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out
The oldest blocks in town run plumbing decades older than the newer builds toward Port Byron
First frost typically lands around November 1
Seasonal timing
Highs of 56 in April and 70 in May put weeks of steady runoff against a foundation, and the check valve is usually the part that gives out first.
