Conditions at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the San Antonio Intl Ap, TX station, about 6 miles away.
Conditions for Hand-Wash Stations
DOE's Building America map puts Bexar County in the Hot-Humid climate region (IECC 2021 zone 2A, 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 122 days a year reach 90°F or more, more than nine in ten U.S. places in our data, so heat is the normal condition for months at a time. About 18 days a year go past 100°F. Stations get heavy use on hot days, and their fresh-water tanks run down faster; ask how much water each station holds and plan a refill every day of a multi-day event.
Occasional Freezes
Only about 14 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.
Paint Work on Older Buildings
About 43% of San Antonio's housing units were built before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). EPA’s Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule covers paid work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978, and OSHA’s lead standard for construction requires adequate hand-washing facilities for workers exposed to lead, so a station beside the crew's toilet belongs on those jobs.
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 122 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.
Who to Ask About Local Rules
San Antonio is an incorporated city with its own municipal government. For an event on public land or stations on a street or sidewalk, ask the San Antonio city government before you book what applies.
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
