The Atlanta Peachtree Ap station averages 49 nights a year at or below 32°F and 4 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles.

Summers run hot, with about 53 days a year at 90°F or more and 1 at 100°F.2,3 A long hot season shortens the life of roofing, sealants and garage-door electronics, and it shapes what a contractor specifies. Rainfall is substantial: about 51 inches a year, 15 days of it an inch or more.2,3 Heavy rainfall makes flashing, drainage and ventilation details the difference between a sound assembly and a wet one.

Heating and cooling loads are both real: about 2,980 heating and 1,728 cooling degree days a year (base 65°F).2,3 Roswell sits in IECC climate zone 3A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in Roswell are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
