Murray at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the Salt Lake City Intl Ap, UT station, about 10 miles away.
Planning Around the Weather
DOE's Building America map puts Salt Lake County in the Cold climate region (IECC 2021 zone 5B, PNNL county guide). Winters in this region are long enough that freezing, not heat, is usually the main limit on units that carry water.
Snow and Access
Average snowfall is about 52 inches a year, more than three in four U.S. places in our data, enough to bury a ground-level path several times a winter. Service trucks need a plowed path to each unit all winter, and a cleared, packed pad keeps units level as snow piles up; agree who clears the route.
Freezing Nights
About 112 nights a year reach 32°F or below, more than most U.S. places in our data, mostly between late fall and early spring. Water-carrying units need a plan from late fall into spring: give your dates when you call and ask how hand-wash water and flush tanks are kept from freezing.
Heat
About 62 days a year reach 90°F or more, more than most U.S. places in our data, most of them in the summer months. On sunny, dry sites, place units in shade where the site allows. In the summer months, ask how often units will be pumped and restocked, and put them where they get afternoon shade.
Job Sites and Home Projects
Building in Existing Neighborhoods
About 10.5% of Murray's housing units were built in 2010 or later (ACS 2020–2024), below the U.S. share of 11.4%, though above the median U.S. place in our data, so most homes predate 2010 and many projects are renovations or additions to existing buildings.
Homes From the 1970s and 1980s
The median year built for Murray's housing is 1978 (ACS 2020–2024), newer than most U.S. places in our data. Housing from that era is now 35 to 55 years old; crews replacing roofs, windows or mechanical systems on it need a toilet on site like any other crew.
Older Paint on Renovation Jobs
A large share of Murray's housing, about 54% of units, was built before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). EPA’s Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule covers paid work that disturbs painted surfaces in homes built before 1978, and OSHA’s lead standard for construction (29 CFR 1926.62) requires adequate hand-washing facilities for workers exposed to lead. If the crew will sand, scrape or demolish old paint, put one of the hand-wash stations next to the toilet.
Apartments, Townhouses and Rentals
The most common housing type is detached houses, about 53% of units (lower than three in four U.S. places in our data), followed by buildings with five or more units at about 28% (ACS 2020–2024). Detached houses usually have a driveway or yard where a crew's unit can stand within reach of the service truck. Apartment and condo projects bring larger crews, and a property manager decides where units go. About 35% of occupied homes are rented (owner share lower than most U.S. places in our data), so check who controls the property before a unit goes on it.
OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 scales with headcount: 45 workers on an apartment or condo site need 2 toilet seats and 2 urinals, 210 need 5 of each. More on sizing: construction rentals in Utah.
Events, Weddings and Parties
A four-hour summer event for 2,000 people needs 12 units on the PSAI event chart, or 14 to 15 with alcohol (PSAI adds 10–20%). Every cluster of restrooms needs at least 5% accessible units, rounded up; for winter events, clear the route to the ADA unit at full width, not just a footpath.
Both seasons matter: a restroom trailer for a summer wedding needs power for its air conditioning, and one for a winter date needs heat and protected water lines. For a party at an apartment complex or a rented home, the property manager or landlord decides where units can stand. For winter events, clear and pack a path for guests and for the service truck before setup. More: event rentals in Utah and wedding restrooms in Utah.
