Hauppauge (11788) is in the Towns of Islip and Smithtown, in West Suffolk, close to Ronkonkoma, Islandia and Holbrook. On August 13, 2014, 13.26 inches of rain fell at MacArthur Airport in Islip, a New York State 24-hour record that flooded parts of southwest Suffolk.
Many Suffolk properties use cesspools or septic systems instead of sewers, so a backup can bring sewage, not just water, into a home. Past renovations frequently enclosed plumbing behind drywall, which lets small leaks in Hauppauge homes do hidden damage. Original shutoff valves in older Hauppauge homes can seize, which makes a burst line harder to stop quickly.
In practice, crews in Hauppauge focus on stopping the source, removing standing water quickly, and drying structure and contents to acceptable moisture levels.
