Omak is a city in Okanogan County, on the Okanogan River, about 64 km from Republic. The river gives the town its shape, and the streets run down toward the water and up the benches on either side. A roof in Omak is read for the exposure that the river creates: damp in the attic on the valley floor, and wind channelled along the river on the open benches.
The frame is the first thing the crew reads. The county snow minimum of 40 pounds per square foot is the reference, and the suggested figure of 55 pounds at 3,000 feet and above is noted where the elevation of the house warrants it. The attic is read for sag, staining and wet insulation before the eave and covering are examined.
Wind on an Omak roof is checked at the edges and the ridge against the county basic wind speed of 110 miles per hour. The fixing beneath any lifted edge is read before the shingle is replaced, and the nail count and length are recorded on the job sheet.
Omak is also a place where the wildfire record is part of the visit. The vents, the screens and the gutters are checked for ember entry, and the dry debris at the eave is cleared where the owner agrees.
