students on path to<br />

adulthood<br />

Year 10 St Andrew’s College<br />

students got out of bed at<br />

5.30am last Thursday to<br />

head off to Kairaki Beach<br />

for the school’s annual Te<br />

Waka ceremony. Students<br />

were led at sunrise by their<br />

teachers and fellow student<br />

Reuben O’Neill on the<br />

bagpipes as they began their<br />

journey towards adulthood.<br />

The traditional Maori calling<br />

ceremony ended with each<br />

student symbolically throwing<br />

childhood behaviour in the<br />

form of a stone or shell into<br />

the Waimakariri River where it<br />

meets the ocean.<br />

Library building to be torn down<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

THE FATE of the old Bishopdale<br />

Library has been sealed and the<br />

building will be demolished.<br />

Although the Farrington Ave<br />

library was not completely written<br />

off by the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake, the damage was<br />

significant enough that it was<br />

deemed earthquake-prone and<br />

not fit for use.<br />

It has since been abandoned<br />

and boarded up, but does not<br />

pose a risk of collapse to nearby<br />

buildings or thoroughfares.<br />

Last week, city council staff<br />

Model<br />

ASTG14LUCB<br />

5.4kW Hi Wall<br />

told the Fendalton-Waimairi-<br />

Harewood Community Board,<br />

which approved the demolition,<br />

that the building is a liability in<br />

terms of security and vandalism.<br />

Property consultant manager<br />

Angus Smith said it had been<br />

broken into and vandalised the<br />

night before last Monday’s board<br />

meeting.<br />

Repairing the building was<br />

deemed financially unviable<br />

because of a $2 million price tag<br />

and further costs to update the<br />

facility for a different purpose.<br />

IT’S KIND of been a bit of a slam<br />

dunk I’m afraid in regards to<br />

city councillor Aaron Keown’s<br />

unsuccessful bid to get traffic<br />

lights at the Gardiners, Breens<br />

and Harewood Rds intersection.<br />

On page 4 today, Mayor Lianne<br />

Dalziel outlines why Keown did<br />

not get the necessary votes to get<br />

the improvements through the<br />

council. Keown also has his say<br />

on the matter in our weekly Soapbox<br />

column (page 4).<br />

The intersection rates 94th out<br />

of 100 medium-risk intersections<br />

in the city.<br />

So that either means there are a<br />

heck of a lot of risky intersections<br />

in the city, or there are many<br />

other more worthy intersections<br />

that need upgrading.<br />

Also, a cycle scheme at Jellie<br />

Park has been a success the organisers<br />

of it say and they are looking<br />

to roll it out at other recreation<br />

centres (page 3).<br />

Cycle scheme a success<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

A BICYCLE scheme to get<br />

people to leave their cars at<br />

home has been labelled a<br />

success and might soon roll out<br />

across the city.<br />

City council head of<br />

recreation and sport John<br />

Filsell said initial data showed<br />

the scheme at Jellie Park<br />

Recreation and Sports Centre<br />

was fully completed 17 times<br />

and partially completed 13<br />

times.<br />

There were at least 117<br />

individual visits from people on<br />

bicycles in February.<br />

The Jellie Park Bike Initiative<br />

Project committee was formed<br />

by the Fendalton-Waimairi-<br />

Harewood Community<br />

Board in May to gather public<br />

feedback on ways to combat the<br />

parking problem at Jellie Park.<br />

“The hope is to free up<br />

car parks, create healthy<br />

habits and make sure there<br />

is community involvement,”<br />

project committee chairwoman<br />

Bridget Williams said.<br />

Extensions to Jellie Park’s<br />

car park were voted down<br />

by the city council after an<br />

overwhelmingly negative<br />

response to public consultation.<br />

Board chairman David<br />

CYCLING: Bridget Williams, chairwoman of the Jellie Park Bike Initiative Project committee, is<br />

expecting a report back on just how successful the pilot scheme has been.<br />

PHOTO: ANDREW KING ​<br />

Cartwright said the number<br />

of people cycling meant there<br />

were at least 100 empty car<br />

parks that otherwise may have<br />

been full.<br />

He said that would only<br />

increase as the public became<br />

more aware of the initiative.<br />

Mr Cartwright said they<br />

might look into running it at<br />

other centres around the city,<br />

including the Pioneer and<br />

Graham Condon sports and<br />

recreation centres.<br />

The board and project<br />

committee are expecting a<br />

report back this week on the<br />

scheme’s overall success and<br />

whether it will be continued<br />

permanently.<br />

Mr Cartwright and Bridget<br />

Williams, chairwoman of the<br />

project committee, agreed the<br />

pilot run went really well but<br />

they’re waiting for confirmation<br />

from the report.<br />

Spokes Canterbury cycling<br />

group said the only way to discourage<br />

people driving would<br />

be to charge for parking.<br />

However, Ms Williams said<br />

that charging people would<br />

only increase frustrations.<br />

In Brief<br />

MORE WORK ON RUTLAND ST<br />

Businesses on Rutland St struggling<br />

to get customers in due to road<br />

works outside their shops will<br />

face more disruption as further<br />

construction of the Papanui<br />

Cycleway began last week. The<br />

entrance to Malvern St and<br />

Westminster St from Rutland St will<br />

be closed at alternate times for three<br />

weeks. Rutland St, between Weston<br />

Rd and Innes Rd, will be one-way<br />

for four weeks. North-bound traffic<br />

will need to detour along Innes Rd<br />

on to Bretts Rd and then back on to<br />

Weston Rd.<br />

THEFT FROM CARS<br />

The Belfast Community Network is<br />

warning residents to lock their cars<br />

and make sure windows are closed<br />

when parking at Sheldon Park. The<br />

community group has received<br />

several reports of cars being broken<br />

into in the car park.<br />

FUNDING GRANT<br />

Flynn McDonald, 16, has received<br />

a $300 grant to participate in the<br />

New Zealand national age group<br />

swimming championships in<br />

Wellington later this month. The<br />

grant was awarded by the Fendalton-<br />

Frustration over intersection snub<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

MAYOR LIANNE Dalziel has<br />

responded to city councillor<br />

Aaron Keown’s outrage that<br />

his bid to get traffic signals<br />

installed at the Gardiners,<br />

Breens and Harewood Rds<br />

intersection fell over.<br />

At last Tuesday’s city council<br />

meeting, 10 councillors voted<br />

against the money being budgeted<br />

for the traffic signals in the<br />

draft annual plan. Seven were<br />

for it.<br />

Cr Keown hit out at those<br />

who voted against it on Facebook,<br />

posting a photo of the<br />

official voting form.<br />

He has since added a direct<br />

response from Ms Dalziel.<br />

She wrote that she was aware<br />

that this issue was what Cr<br />

Keown had run his election<br />

campaign on, but she had told<br />

him she would have to vote<br />

against it because he did not<br />

use the right process.<br />

“This particular intersection<br />

sits in the list of 100 mediumrisk<br />

intersections at number 94.<br />

That means the current criteria<br />

consider another 93 intersections<br />

more risky,” Ms Dalziel<br />

wrote.<br />

Cr Keown told Nor’West<br />

<strong>News</strong> other city councillors<br />

who voted against said it was<br />

LOST: The intersection city councillor Aaron Keown has<br />

been lobbying for has not been included in the draft annual<br />

plan.<br />

because the process was wrong.<br />

To qualify for an upgrade, the<br />

intersection had to be in the top<br />

10 most dangerous in the city,<br />

in terms of accidents, fatalities<br />

and injuries, but he hit back<br />

and said that was the wrong<br />

approach.<br />

“We’re just waiting for<br />

someone to die there. That’s<br />

backwards,” he said.<br />

Cr Keown lobbied hard in<br />

his re-election campaign for<br />

the intersection’s upgrade to<br />

improve pedestrian safety and<br />

had offered $100 to anyone who<br />

could come up with a more<br />

dangerous intersection.<br />

“It wasn’t even my idea, it’s<br />

the people. People want lights,”<br />

he said.<br />

All three city councillors<br />

who are also on the Fendalton-<br />

Waimairi-Harewood Community<br />

Board voted to have<br />

the intersection included in the<br />

budget.<br />

Another board member<br />

Linda Chen wrote on Facebook<br />

that if she could have voted, she<br />

would have supported it.<br />

Cr Keown said he would<br />

not give up, and because the<br />

intersection has gone into<br />

the draft annual plan as a<br />

note, the next step will be<br />

when it is released for public<br />

comment.<br />

After the Gardiners,<br />

Breens and Harewood Rds<br />

intersection wasn’t included<br />

in the city council’s draft<br />

annual plan, city councillor<br />

Aaron Keown has his say on<br />

the flaws in the process<br />

IT WAS a very disappointing end<br />

to what had been an engaging<br />

annual plan process at council,<br />

not having the intersection of<br />

Gardiners, Breens and Harewood<br />

Rds included.<br />

For me, this is where the entire<br />

engagement between the public<br />

and council falls down. Elected<br />

members will hide behind the term<br />

‘process’.<br />

I was elected by the people of<br />

Harewood, I campaigned on getting<br />

this intersection fixed as that’s<br />

what the constituents of the ward<br />

wanted and therefore voted for.<br />

Here is where it all falls down:<br />

A democratically elected member<br />

with a mandate from the people<br />

can just simply not propose an<br />

intersection upgrade even if that’s<br />

what the people want.<br />

You see, the intersection has<br />

to rate as ‘dangerous’ and this is<br />

measured by crash stats.<br />

Most crashes happen out of<br />

human era and not the built environment,<br />

so crash stats are really<br />

pointless when it comes to influencing<br />

safety improvements.<br />

Surely the best asset and tool we<br />

have is the residents, motorists and<br />

pedestrians of the area.<br />

People will not whinge and<br />

complain about every intersection<br />

in their area, but when all point to<br />

one and say “something better be<br />

done about that before someone<br />

loses their life”, this needs to be<br />

acknowledged.<br />

This intersection is currently<br />

rated the 94th most dangerous<br />

intersection in Christchurch, based<br />

on crash stats.<br />

What this figure does not tell<br />

you is that most of the 93 ahead<br />

in crash stats already have lights<br />

and the accidents were the fault of<br />

human era so it does not compare<br />

apples with apples.<br />

All is not lost just yet and the<br />

people of Christchurch’s north<br />

west soon get the chance to submit<br />

on the Annual Plan and have the<br />

opportunity to tell the council they<br />

don’t want much this year, just<br />

one intersection improved for the<br />

benefit of us all.<br />

NINa COOk - OpeNINg<br />

Nina Cook was born in Whakatane in 1967. She was educated in Wanganui and<br />

then at Christchurch Polytechnic School of Art and Design where she received<br />

a Bachelor of Design. In 20<strong>07</strong> Nina established the studio from which she<br />

currently works. Nina’s latest exhibition named ‘Opening’ takes place at Little<br />

River Gallery from <strong>March</strong> 11th until April 5th.<br />

Ian Clothier writes about Nina Cook’s new works from the exhibition<br />

‘Opening’.<br />

“…Sumptuously indulgent, some of the paintings have sensual cavities<br />

accompanied by extravagant displays of form and colour that come close to<br />

gorging the eyes. Words such as colour, spectrum and visual feast apply equally<br />

to the paintings as they do to the tail of peacocks. Such<br />

as the collection of thoughts about feathers, colour<br />

and visual luxury that assemble on reflection of Nina<br />

Cook’s Opening works.”<br />

Nina writes about her own work.<br />

“The narrative/impetus for this series of works is deeply personal. Broadly, it is<br />

about a cycle of profound hurt to intense release. Opening: to force an opening<br />

(to breach) through to Opening: to release and truly open up.<br />

The process is integral and is one of concentrated, open-minded patience,<br />

requiring me to stay alert to paint (viscosity, brush loading, etc) and<br />

compositional characteristics in much the same way<br />

as fully abstract works demand. These cannot<br />

be rushed, nor the movements/marks allowed<br />

to become repetitively mechanical. To do so<br />

would be to undermine the intention of the work.<br />

The works initially appear highly decorative and<br />

orderly – feathers mean birds. But on closer inspection, these are not any birds<br />

you’d recognise. Their physiology is different (wrong? altered?). The colours<br />

and intensity are emotive, the mark-making intense. These irregularities draw<br />

you in, encourage observation and contemplation. But ultimately you are<br />

released to once again to simply enjoy the decorative qualities of these jewels.<br />

That they are designed to be hung at any angle, allows the image to be<br />

changed/refreshed at will. This allows the viewer input into the relationship<br />

each work has with its surroundings. The round paintings are very effective in<br />

groupings, allowing differences between the works to intensify each other.”<br />

Young opera star on Mikado tour<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

AT THE drop of a hat<br />

Bryndwr‘s Angus Simmons<br />

has been thrust into his first<br />

national tour with New Zealand<br />

Opera.<br />

Initially for this season’s<br />

performance of Mikado, Simmons<br />

had not been cast. In fact,<br />

he had only been home from<br />

visiting his brother in Germany<br />

for two days and had also celebrated<br />

his 21 st birthday in that<br />

48 hours.<br />

It was safe to say he was still<br />

feeling the effects of jet lag and<br />

a hangover when he found out<br />

he’d been cast. Simmons got a<br />

phone call to say he had a part<br />

in the ensemble for Mikado but<br />

he had to be in Auckland in<br />

three days.<br />

He had to be available for four<br />

weeks after that to tour the production<br />

and somehow, he said,<br />

the timing worked out perfectly.<br />

He only had two major commitments<br />

to work around, the<br />

first being his studies at Canterbury<br />

University as he would<br />

be missing out on two weeks of<br />

class.<br />

“They were quite happy just<br />

to have someone with work,”<br />

Simmons said.<br />

Simmons is also the musical<br />

director of the Christchurch<br />

SPOTLIGHT: Third from the left at the back, Angus Simmons<br />

(right), 21, said he was lucky Mikado was such a catchy show<br />

so learning the music wasn’t too hard. ​<br />

Boys’ High School choir, which<br />

was a little trickier.<br />

“It turns out one of our days<br />

off is Mondays and the choir<br />

meets on a Monday. So I fly<br />

back to Christchurch every<br />

week for that.”<br />

Another hurdle he faced was<br />

learning the music in such a<br />

short space of time which most<br />

cast members had been doing<br />

since the start of January.<br />

It was a bit of a rush, but<br />

fortunately, the music was quite<br />

catchy, something you can learn<br />

quickly, he said.<br />

Simmons has worked with<br />

the opera company before but<br />

this was his first real opportunity<br />

to tour professionally.<br />

“I can’t really put into words<br />

how invaluable it’s been.”<br />

Mikado runs at the Isaac<br />

Theatre Royal for five shows<br />

from <strong>March</strong> 7 to 11 after its<br />

Auckland and Wellington<br />

dates.<br />

Simmons said touring and<br />

being in different cities has<br />

been great, but one thing he is<br />

looking forward to about being<br />

home is being able to drive.<br />

Later in July, he will be performing<br />

in the Christchurch<br />

ensemble for Carmen and<br />

after that plans to focus on his<br />

solo work and university studies.<br />

In Brief<br />

BOMB SCARE<br />

Police were called to an address<br />

in Edgeware just after 11am last<br />

Monday when an old mortar shell<br />

was found in the garage. A person<br />

had gone to the property to clean it<br />

and discovered the mortar shell. The<br />

explosive ordnance disposal team<br />

attended the scene but there was no<br />

further concern.<br />

SCHOOL’S FIRE FUNDRAISER<br />

Elmwood Normal School pupils<br />

from years 5 and 6 raised nearly<br />

$900 last week through a successful<br />

bake sale. The money will be used<br />

to buy shrubs for families who lost<br />

their gardens in the recent Port Hills<br />

fire. The school said any remaining<br />

money will then be donated to the<br />

Rural Fire Association. Pupils baked<br />

and sold biscuits, muffins, cakes and<br />

cupcakes.<br />

Major open heart surgery at the age of four taught Jeremy<br />

Scott that life was precious and something to cherish.<br />

In 2011 Jeremy began a two-and-a-half year, 51,916km<br />

unsupported bike ride from London to New Zealand. As<br />

he pedalled his way around the planet he accumulated<br />

more than enough kilometres to circumnavigate the<br />

earth. Jeremy has since written the successful book The<br />

Long Road from a Broken Heart and now dedicates his<br />

life to inspiring others. He has recently been awarded<br />

the Australian Heart Foundation Heart Hero award for<br />

his work raising funds and awareness for heart disease.<br />

RESTORING AN OLD FAVOURITE<br />

Work to restore Victoria Square has started and<br />

finishes in the first quarter of 2018.<br />

Many features in the square are either earthquake<br />

damaged or close to the end of their life. This project<br />

will restore the square and make it safer and more<br />

accessible for people.<br />

Completed section near the Worcester Street Bridge.<br />

Paving, art, gardens, lighting, and seating will<br />

make the area accessible to people of all ages and<br />

abilities. Service vehicles and customers will still<br />

be able to access businesses, but the speed limit<br />

will be lowered.<br />

The much loved Bowker Fountain will be repaired.<br />

The statues of Captain Cook and Queen Victoria will<br />

remain, as will the horse watering ramp and floral<br />

clock. There will be some new features such as art<br />

works and a new punt stop at the river’s edge.<br />

There will be no access through Victoria Square<br />

while work is underway, but access along a pathway<br />

between Armagh Street and Durham/Kilmore<br />

Streets (through The Commons) will be available<br />

for most of this time.<br />

Artist impression of what the new ‘Tauranga Waka’<br />

punt stop will look like.<br />

The development of the restoration plan was<br />

overseen by a Community Reference Group<br />

following a public feedback process carried out in<br />

collaboration with project partners: Christchurch<br />

City Council, Matapopore Charitable Trust on behalf<br />

of the Te Tūnanga o Ngāi Tūāhuriri, and the former<br />

Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority.<br />

Methyl B-12<br />

B12 is essential for energy production, cell health, regulation of mood and sleep cycles,<br />

nerve health and repair and prevention of homocysteine.<br />

Emerging research has shown as many as<br />

50 per cent of older adults and as many as<br />

25 per cent of younger adults are deficient<br />

in vitamin B12.<br />

B12 is essential for energy production,<br />

cell health, regulation of mood and<br />

sleep cycles, nerve health and repair and<br />

prevention of homocysteine - a serious<br />

cardiovascular risk factor that is known<br />

to cause damage and plaque in the blood<br />

vessels. It can also increase the chances of a<br />

stroke. Harvard researchers found a 34 per<br />

cent decrease risk of vision loss in a study of<br />

participants aged 40+ who supplemented<br />

with B12. Another study linked a higher<br />

risk of hearing loss in subjects in their 60s<br />

who were low in B12.<br />

The reason so many people lack B12<br />

seems to be due to our body’s inability<br />

to absorb it as we age, as the digestive<br />

system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux<br />

medication and other drugs further reduce<br />

B12 absorption.<br />

The good news is B12 in the form of<br />

Methylcobalamin sublingual tablets that<br />

are dissolved in the mouth and thru<br />

bypassing the digestive tract have been<br />

shown to effectively raise B12 levels in the<br />

body.<br />

SENIOR LIVING<br />

Time Honoured Remedy<br />

According to a country Doctor “D.C.<br />

Jarvis” from Vermont in the USA cider<br />

vinegar and honey (CV & H) can be an<br />

important part of a long healthy life. Dr.<br />

Jarvis noted Vermonters who regularly<br />

consumed cider vinegar and honey had<br />

excellent health with many putting in a<br />

vigorous day’s work on the farm even when<br />

well into their eighties.<br />

Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider vinegar<br />

and honey on arthritis can be remarkable<br />

with many patients reporting almost total<br />

relief after taking a course of the cider<br />

vinegar and honey. Dr. Jarvis surmised that<br />

the acid and potassium in cider vinegar<br />

counteracted calcium deposits and helped<br />

the body control calcium use.<br />

As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found<br />

regular administration of cider vinegar and<br />

honey at the onset of complaints such as the<br />

common cold, sinusitis, asthmatic<br />

attacks, hay fever, and childhood<br />

diseases such as chicken pox and<br />

measles, was accompanied by an<br />

improvement in the condition with<br />

symptoms either disappearing,<br />

or the conditions were extremely<br />

mild and soon over.<br />

Apple cider vinegar contains<br />

all the goodness of the apple in a<br />

form that is readily accepted by<br />

the body. Scientists have found<br />

over 90 different substances in<br />

ACV, among them 20 important<br />

trace elements, minerals, essential<br />

enzymes, a number of different<br />

acids including malic acid, amino<br />

acids and roughage in the form<br />

of potash and pectin. A scientific<br />

study at the Shizuka University in Japan<br />

has proven ACV to have potent antioxidant<br />

benefits (It can destroy free radicals,<br />

which are a major factor in ageing.) and<br />

also the ACV can break down cholesterol<br />

formations in the blood vessels.<br />

ACV and H is a powerful tonic that<br />

also promotes digestion, assimilation of<br />

nutrients and elimination of waste, and<br />

helps neutralize any toxic substances that<br />

enter the body.<br />

It is important to note not all cider<br />

vinegar is made in the traditional way and<br />

results are likely to prove disappointing<br />

with these other vinegars.<br />

Fitness centre focuses on members’<br />

health & wellbeing<br />

As we all know from what the health<br />

professionals tell us, one of the keys to<br />

staying healthy throughout our life is being<br />

active and exercising regularly.<br />

For long-time manager of the Papanui<br />

Club’s fitness centre, Eddie Kerrigan, that<br />

has always been the focus. “For us, it’s not<br />

about mass numbers – it’s about caring<br />

about the health and well-being of individual<br />

members who exercise here. That’s the key<br />

for overall health,” he says.<br />

The fully equipped Ignite Fitness is an<br />

important feature of the expansive new<br />

Papanui Club, which was rebuilt following<br />

the earthquakes, and has much more space<br />

and is a better design than the former fitness<br />

facilities had, Eddie says.<br />

However, for him and other staff<br />

members, it is the personal communication<br />

and interaction with members that is most<br />

important.<br />

“People have to have the self-motivation to<br />

come,” Eddie says, “once here we can guide<br />

them towards their goals and encourage<br />

them to incorporate exercise into their<br />

lifestyle and get into good nutritional habits.”<br />

One member who doesn’t need any<br />

encouragement to visit Ignite Fitness is the<br />

fitness centre’s oldest member, 87-year-old<br />

Mavis Mannall. Mavis has been a member<br />

of the Papanui club for 26 years, and goes<br />

to the fitness centre three times a week,<br />

where she works out on a number<br />

of the machines. Her favourite is the<br />

rowing machine, but she also uses<br />

the treadmill, the bikes and the leg<br />

extension and does floor exercises<br />

including squats.<br />

“I love coming here, everyone is so<br />

friendly. It’s like a home away from<br />

home,” says Mavis. “It’s got the X factor.”<br />

Her fitness regime also includes<br />

walking 4kms twice a week and<br />

swimming, while in her ‘spare’ time, she<br />

is involved with the Red Cross and the<br />

Blood Bank. Her grandchildren are also<br />

an important part of her life.<br />

Mavis is only one of the 13000-plus<br />

members who are enjoying the spacious,<br />

modern facilities at the newly rebuilt<br />

Papanui Club in Sawyers Arms Road,<br />

which reopened in early 2016. New<br />

Zealand’s largest club, it offers leisure<br />

and entertainment facilities for a wide<br />

range of age groups across the whole<br />

community.<br />

Ignite Fitness is open 5.30am-<br />

9.30pm Monday to Friday and 5.30am-<br />

6.30pm weekends and public holidays.<br />

New members are more than welcome.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Warming winter with<br />

EnviroMaster<br />

ArE yoU struggling with the heat of<br />

Summer or wanting to get organised for<br />

Winter? With the ever changing weather<br />

patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility<br />

of being able to heat and cool which is<br />

an advantage no other appliance can<br />

offer. This represents great value for<br />

your investment as you can use it all<br />

year round. The team at Enviro Master<br />

Ltd can help keep you cool this Summer<br />

either at home or work. Enviro Master<br />

supplies, installs and services all the<br />

leading brands including Panasonic,<br />

Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin. This<br />

means our team can show you which<br />

system and brand will best suit your<br />

needs.<br />

We currently have savings up to $600 off<br />

the recommended retail price on<br />

selected models.<br />

Would you like to maximise the number<br />

of days you can use your swimming pool?<br />

Heating your pool can do this and one<br />

of the most cost effective ways is with a<br />

water heat pump. Enviro Master Ltd can<br />

supply, install and service you swimming<br />

pool heat pump providing you with a<br />

comfortable, extended swimming season.<br />

Servicing your heat pump is extremely<br />

important to ensure that it is working<br />

as effectively and efficiently as possible<br />

resulting in a healthy, hygienic heat pump,<br />

lower power bills and greater comfort.<br />

But beware, not all cleaning companies<br />

are equal. We are constantly hearing of<br />

people being charged huge amounts for<br />

servicing and all they are getting is a heat<br />

pump clean. We at Enviro Master, are<br />

qualified engineers and therefore are able<br />

to fully test and diagnose any problems<br />

you may or may not be aware of with your<br />

heat pump. Also, as we are associated<br />

with all major brands, we are able to<br />

repair these under warranty if they are<br />

still within the warranty period.<br />

It is important to remember, when<br />

selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s<br />

warranty does not cover the installation<br />

and consumers could be responsible for<br />

any repair or damage caused to the system<br />

due to poor installation. Enviro Master’s<br />

five-star installation guarantee ensures<br />

correct installation, and a demonstration<br />

so customers have an understanding on<br />

how it will best meet their needs.<br />

For a free in home consultation, call<br />

Enviro Master on 366 0525 or visit our<br />

showroom at 41A Shakespeare Rd,<br />

Waltham, Christchurch.<br />

The facts about<br />

home ventilation<br />

Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure<br />

Under the New Zealand Building Code,<br />

all buildings, including residential, need to<br />

be suitably ventilated, either with opening<br />

windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1<br />

states: “The objective of this provision is<br />

to safeguard people from illness or loss of<br />

amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are<br />

many benefits to forced, or mechanical,<br />

ventilation over opening windows, including<br />

warmth, security, reduction of outside noises<br />

and reduction of condensation.<br />

Traditional domestic ventilation systems<br />

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from<br />

outside via the roof space and force the stale<br />

air out through gaps around windows and<br />

doors. The incoming air from<br />

these systems has to be heated<br />

or cooled to keep the house<br />

warm in winter or cool in<br />

summer.<br />

The Smooth-Air HEX390 is<br />

a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It<br />

extracts air from the house and<br />

at the same time brings in fresh<br />

air. These two streams of air<br />

pass through a heat exchanger,<br />

which warms incoming air in<br />

winter and cools in summer if<br />

air conditioning is being used.<br />

This means that up to 80% of<br />

the energy which would be<br />

wasted using a traditional positive pressure<br />

system is recovered, resulting in significant<br />

energy savings and therefore lower heating or<br />

cooling costs.<br />

Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation<br />

systems have been considerably more<br />

expensive than traditional positive pressure<br />

systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique<br />

manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390<br />

balanced pressure system can be installed for a<br />

similar price as a traditional positive pressure<br />

system.<br />

Public Notices<br />

The Ministry of Social Development (MSD)<br />

in Papanui is moving to new offices.<br />

Work and Income and Child Youth and Family will now be<br />

located at 56 Langdons Road with the new site opening<br />

at 1:00pm on Monday 13 <strong>March</strong>.<br />

It’s an important part of our security that we know who<br />

is coming into our sites. Our security guards will have a<br />

quick conversation with people before they come into our<br />

offices to discuss why a person is there, and help make<br />

sure we don’t admit anyone who might represent a risk<br />

to the safety of other clients or our staff.<br />

If the person doesn’t have an appointment, they’ll be<br />

asked for ID, but not having ID won’t mean people can’t<br />

come into our offices.<br />

Our clients now also have access to a wide range of our<br />

services on the phone and online. This includes help with<br />

urgent costs, like food or emergency dental treatment,<br />

using our online service MyMSD.<br />

Thank you from the local MSD team.<br />
