Conditions at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the Charleston Intl Ap, SC station, about 2 miles away.
Conditions for Hand-Wash Stations
DOE's Building America map puts Charleston County in the Hot-Humid climate region (IECC 2021 zone 3A, PNNL county guide). This region pairs heat with humidity for much of the year; for long rentals in the hot months, ask how often units will be serviced.
Heat
About 64 days a year reach 90°F or more, more than three in four U.S. places in our data, most of them in the summer months. Expect tanks to run down faster in summer; ask how often the provider refills fresh water and empties gray water.
Occasional Freezes
Only about 22 nights a year reach 32°F (fewer than three in four U.S. places in our data), but one hard freeze is enough to damage anything that holds water. When a freeze is forecast, ask whether stations will be drained or protected overnight.
Busy Job Sites
About 25.1% of housing units were built in 2010 or later (ACS 2020–2024); on multi-crew sites, put a station by each toilet cluster so crews handling concrete, paint or chemicals can wash with running water.
Water, Refills and Placement
Each station has a fresh-water tank, foot pumps, soap and towels, and a separate gray-water tank. How many you need depends on crowd size, hours, basins per station and tank size, and food or animal areas need more; there is no single national ratio for events, so give the provider your numbers.
On job sites, a station by the toilets lets crews handling paint, chemicals or dirty materials wash with running water.
On the roughly 64 days a year at 90°F or more, plan for tanks to run down sooner and ask for a refill each day of a multi-day event.
Placement and Access
Put stations beside the restroom rows and near food, on firm ground the refill truck can reach.
Rain and Ground
About 53 inches of precipitation falls in an average year, with about 16 days of an inch or more, in the top tenth of U.S. places in our data. Gray water and foot traffic turn the ground around stations muddy fast in wet weather; set them on a firm surface.
Who to Ask About Local Rules
North Charleston is an incorporated city with its own municipal government. For an event on public land or stations on a street or sidewalk, ask the North Charleston city government before you book what applies.
North Charleston spans Charleston County and Dorchester County; county-run parks and roads follow the county the site is in. If food is served, the health department that permits the event's food vendors can say what it expects for hand washing; ask it directly.
What to Ask For
- Number of basins per station
- Fresh-water capacity for your crowd and hours
- Refills and gray-water emptying for long rentals
- Placement beside restrooms and near food or animals
- Daily refills in hot weather
