Library building to be torn down • By Julia Evans THE FATE of the old Bishopdale Library has been sealed and the building will be demolished. Although the Farrington Ave library was not completely written off by the February 22, 2011, earthquake, the damage was significant enough that it was deemed earthquake-prone and not fit for use. It has since been abandoned and boarded up, but does not pose a risk of collapse to nearby buildings or thoroughfares.

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />
