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 />

Flynn McDonald, 16, has received<br />
a $300 grant to participate in the<br />
New Zealand national age group<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 />

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 />
