Spring life in Pasadena, from the local numbers
At only 3.6 freeze–thaw cycles a year, Pasadena springs mostly serve their full rated life. What deserves the attention instead is balance: pull the release and lift — a door that will not hold at waist height is eating its spring and its opener at once.
Given that half the homes in Pasadena were standing by 1976, the doors worth testing before winter are the ones still on their original springs — the balance test finds them before a cold morning does.
How Pasadena compares next door
For context around Pasadena: Deer Park runs 4.7 freeze–thaw cycles and 7–9 years of spring life; Pearland runs 3.3 freeze–thaw cycles and 8–10 years of spring life; and Friendswood runs 3.7 freeze–thaw cycles and 8–10 years of spring life.
This page runs on Pasadena's numbers (3.6 freeze–thaw cycles, 1976 median build, 39 ft of elevation) — close to the neighbours', never identical, which is exactly the point of measuring per city.
