Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The Ralston ZIP selection includes 204 housing units, with 64% dating from before 1960. Older plumbing is possible, but the pipe material needs confirmation. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Ralston was built in the 1940s. In Ralston, an older home may still have galvanized steel or early copper supply pipe. Internal corrosion can weaken old sections, while the cleanup crew checks surrounding finishes.
