There are no heat sources behind that wall besides a toaster oven that sits
on the counter top and is seldom used. I would think any heat source from
inside would have caused some damage to the cabinet directly above. This is
new housing so the walls are insulated.

I haven't used any chemicals on the deck since the spring of '06.

It's not a manufacturer defect, or it wouldn't all be in the same spot
like that.

My guess is that you had something on the deck or the railing that
reflected the sun on that spot. Maybe a snow shovel leaning against the
railing, depending on which direction that wall faces. Or maybe
something dark leaning against the wall?

So one day it was fine and the next it was melted?

perhaps a sun reflection from a puddle or a windshield. Typical vinyl.

Solvent out-gassing from the recently-applied coat of stain visible in the
photo.

Sure doesn't look like it. Did you mean '07 ?
