ECan to

• By Julia Evans 

A DATE has been set for 

a meeting between elderly 

Mairehau retirees, Ryman

Canterbury bosses over plans to 

re-route the Orbiter. 

An ECan spokeswoman 

confirmed that chief executive Bill

11. 

“In the meantime, ECan staff 

are working with Diana Isaac

and residents to seek their advice 

while developing options,” she 

said. 

It comes as a group of 80 retirees 

presented ECan a petition, 

pleading it to reconsider route 

changes to the Orbiter that would 

see the closest bus stop move 

900m away from the village. 

“We’re very pleased. We’ve had 

a huge response from residents 

in the village, staff and others,” 

resident and petition organiser 

Graham Tate said.

THE ORBITER, an institution of the city’s public transport 

system. 

I’m sure that bus has taken the same route since the dawn 

of time, so it’s no wonder people are unhappy with the sudden 

change. 

The Northern Corridor has a lot to answer for, let’s hope it 

pays off. 

On page 1, a date has been set for Environment Canterbury

Petition organiser Graham Tate told me they’ve been working 

on a number of different proposals that they’ll pitch to chief

Hopefully, they get the response they’re after and a

Either that or they might get offered a job in ECan’s public

Larger signs to deter sex workers 


4 2 2 2 

SIGNS ALERTING the 

public that CCTV cameras 

are operational in residential 

Manchester St discouraging 

street-based sex work will be 

made larger to target drivers. 

Since late last year, the city 

council has been working with 

the community, the New Zealand 

Prostitutes Collective and 

police, to encourage street-based 

sex workers to move away from 

residential areas after calls from 

residents. 

As part of that work six large 

signs will be installed in the 

St Albans area on Manchester 

St to alert people that surveillance 

cameras are operating, 

city council general manager 

citizens and community Mary 

Richardson said. 

A city council report said: 

“These signs (750mm x 750mm) 

will replace two small existing 

signs (375mm x 375mm) that 

are only legible to pedestrians.” 

The signs will be installed by 

May. 

Following the February 22, 

2011, earthquake, and the loss of 

the central city a swell of street 

workers moved from the central 

city part of Manchester St into 

St Albans. 

Residents have since been battling 

to move the street-workers 

on for six years after reports of 

needles and syringes, human 

faeces, used condoms, and 

litter around their properties. 

Vandalism to houses and cars 

has also been reported, as well 

as thefts. 

“We have also placed an 

an extra rubbish bin on the 

Manchester St and Aberdeen 

St corner, stepped up street 

cleaning in the area, and plan to 

install a needle disposal unit.’’ 

Ms Richardson said. 

“We will be talking with local

Staff are also investigating

in the residential St Albans 

area north of Bealey Ave after 

it was proposed preventing 

vehicles from turning into the 

northbound lane of Manchester

RECORDING: 

The city 

council is 

installing 

larger signs 

as part of 

its work to 

deter streetbased 

sex 

workers from 

residential 

Manchester 

St. 

It comes as the city 

council opposed introducing 

a by-law banning street 

workers from residential areas 

last year. 

“Rather than resorting to a 

bylaw, which could not necessarily 

be enforced, we have been 

working with agencies and the 

community to find other ways 

of tacking the issues,’’ Ms Richardson 

said. 

But recent monitoring shows 

only one or two sex workers are 

regularly operating in the area 

north of Bealey Ave.

Orbiter route meeting with retirees 

•From page 1 

The Orbiter stop outside the 

village’s entrance on Philpotts Rd 

would move 900m away to Innes 

Rd. 

“It’s a terrible thing to impose 

on elderly people,” Mr Tate said. 

Mr Tate said before the meeting 

with Mr Lowndes and Mr 

Bayfield, the group would meeting 

with ECan staff to discuss options 

and investigate alternatives. 

“There are a lot of options, we 

can see, that would keep the bus 

accessible,” he said. 

But while Mr Tate said the 

group was “very pleased” with 

the prospect of a meeting. 

“We won’t be counting our 

chickens before they hatch.” 

The Orbiter currently runs 

along QE II Drive, right into 

Philpotts Rd and onto Innes Rd. 

But the Northern Corridor 

work will restrict right hand 

turning in and out of Philpotts 

Rd. 

ECan plans to change the route 

so the bus would use Cranford St 

then Innes Rd, skipping out the 

QE II Drive and Philpotts Rd section 

altogether. 

Said ECan chairman Steve 

Lowndes: “The only viable option 

we have for the Orbiter is to reroute 

via Cranford St.” 

But Mr Tate said the group was 

“optimistic” that ECan would 

reconsider. 

PASSION: Diana Isaac Retirement Village residents are 

opposing ECan’s proposed changes to the Orbiter route, which 

would move the bus stop 900m further away from the complex. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

“We’re just waiting to see 

something concrete and we’ll 

be maintaining representation. 

We’d certainly be out protesting 

again, but we’re hoping it won’t 

come down to that,” he said. 

ECan plans to implement the 

changes later this year. 

In a letter to ECan, Ryman 

Healthcare chief executive Gordon 

MacLeod said the village was 

home to more than 600 residents 

and 200 staff, and the Orbiter was 

a “crucial” form of transport. 

St Bede’s College deputy rector 

Gerry Davidson wrote a letter 

of support for the petition. He 

urged ECan to look at alternate 

routes. 

Mr Lowndes said ECan is 

still looking at other means of 

continuing the coverage and one 

option could include “one in five, 

or one in 10” Orbiter buses going 

via the village.

be a very promising career and

off her face. 

“It definitely feels pretty good,

“We have some pretty good

Call to lower speed limits further 


HAREWOOD School’s calls for 

lower speed limits on its roads 

are finally being heard. 

But principal Julie Greenwood 

said the school would still prefer 

limits to be lowered further. 

The city council 

has opened for 

submissions on 

a proposal that 

would see speed 

limits around 

Julie 

Greenwood 

Harewood, 

including outside 

the school, lowered 

to 60km/h. 

Parts of Sawyers Arms, 

Waimakariri, Harewood, Styx 

Mill and Gardiners Rds could all 

become 60km/h. 

The city council is also proposing 

parts of Highstead, Claridges, 

Hussey and Harewood 

Rd be reduced to 50km/h from 

80km/h. 

“The proposed speed limit 

changes take into account safe 

and appropriate speeds in 

accordance with the NZTA approved 

guides to speed management. 

They aim to address the 

changing nature of post-quake 

north-west Christchurch with its 

recent and proposed residential 

developments,” a city council 

report said. 

Ms Greenwood said:” We are 

thrilled that the council is consulting 

about lowering the speed 

limit to 60km/h on Harewood 

Rd. We support lowering the 

speed and encourage people to 

make submissions.” 

However, she said the school 

would still prefer the limit be 

lowered to 50km/h along Harewood 

Rd. 

“Ten kilometres per hour will 

make a positive difference however 

making the speed limit 

50km/h all along Harewood 

Rd would provide consistency 

for motorists and make it even 

safer.” 

Ms Greenwood told the 

Nor’West News last year that 

when many drivers pass the 

school, they seem to have a case 

of “lead-foot.” 

She had been pleading with 

the city council to lower the 

limit. 

Outside pick-up and drop-off 

times, the stretch of road in 

front of the school is currently 

70km/h – though for the last

to 50km/h. 

“The changes seek to mitigate 

the effects of increased traffic 

flows along previously rural 

roads and reduce the risk and 

severity of accidents to the residents 

and users of these roads,” 

the report said.

approved no stopping restrictions 

for the section of the street after 

residents expressed concerns that 

emergency services would not be 

able to access the hydrant in the 

event of a fire if a car was parked 

on top of it. 

HOMEBASE ENTRANCE 

Homebase will soon have a

approved road changes as part of 

the consenting process at its last 

meeting. These include extended 

parking restrictions, a central solid

resident 

Beverley 

Scott writes 

about her 

concerns 

regarding 

Environment 

Canterbury’s 

proposed bus cuts as part 

of its draft Long Term Plan 

I am writing in regards to the 

termination of the bus route 

107 from Northlands Shopping 

Centre to Styx Mill as proposed 

by Environment Canterbury 

along with five other essential 

bus routes. 

I find the termination of this 

bus route and others completely 

unnecessary for the following 

reasons. 

One of the reasons given is low 

patronage, however, on Friday, 

March 9, I travelled on the 107 

bus at 8am and returned at 4pm. 

On both services there was 

standing room only and 70 per 

cent of the people were high 

school students for whom this was 

their only method of transport 

to school. So by terminating this 

service ECan will essentially be 

preventing children from getting 

an education. Yes, these children 

could bike or walk to school. 

However, what happens if they 

have a medical condition that 

prevents them from doing this 

and is it really healthy to bike in 

the middle of winter when it is 

pouring with rain or the temperature 

is below freezing? 

I thought the plan was to get 

more people using the buses, 

especially after the earthquakes, 

but by terminating the 107 and 


Standing room only on some bus services 

108 routes it will omit a large 

area and also have a huge impact 

on retail and tourism. The 107 

is the only bus that goes past 

Willowbank and this is used by 

tourists every week. 

I have had the privilege to direct 

tourists to the 107 bus to get 

to Willowbank. I personally use 

the 107 to go to the Supa Centre 

on a regular basis and will no 

longer shop there if this service 

is terminated. 

From a personal point of view 

I am unable to drive and therefore 

rely on public transport 

every day. The termination of 

the 107 will mean I have to walk 

to the next nearest bus and with 

acute asthma that often flares up 

in winter this will be impractical 

and cause me to have significantly 

more time off work. 

I also have an elderly mother 

who visits once a week and 

would not be able to walk from 

Northlands to my house so 

relies on the 107 bus. My elderly 

neighbours are also very afraid 

it will prevent them from having 

any social life if this is terminated 

and I believe this applies 

to a large number of people in 

the area. 

There is a new retirement 

home being built at the end of 

Cavendish Rd which will have 

no bus access nearby so many 

residents will not be able to go 

and visit friends and family. 

As for the other routes being 

terminated I know there are 

many people that use one of 

these routes for access to and 

from Burwood Hospital for 

ongoing therapy and care. 

Again if this route is terminated 

health care of these patients 

will be in jeopardy and they will 

not get the quality healthcare 

they need. There are also other 

school students affected by the 

termination of the 145 route. 

Even if the routes ran on

Readers react to a recent 

article regarding elderly 

Mairehau residents 

protesting against the 

proposed changes to the 

Orbiter bus route 

Lynne Bear Henderson 

– This is going to affect a lot 

of elderly and disabled people. 

Buses are lifelines to the community. 

Please don’t limit access 

for elderly and disabled people 

by doing this. This will have 

unfavourable outcomes in health 

and well-being which will in 

turn cost more money. 

Stephan Lance Gardiner 

– I don’t see any problem. The 

new route would be better. 

Carolyn Hunter – Maybe 

if they changed timetable . . . 

its common to see two or three 

right behind each other and not 

full. 

Sonya Rowell – People 

power at its very best.

Major revamp for Waimairi courts 

SPORTS 

Students 

named in NZ 

rowing trials 

after Maadi 

FOLLOWING TOP rowing 

performances at the Maadi Cup, 

a group of students have been 

named as the New Zealand 

junior trialists 

Rangi Ruru Girls’ School’s Isabella 

Carter has been selected for 

the girls trials, and is one of two 

Christchurch girls named. 

In the boys trial squad, Maadi 

Cup winners Christ’s College 

had three students, Alex Todhunter, 

Jamie Batchelor and Max 

Goodwin, selected. 

Coming out of its biggest 

Maadi medal haul ever and having 

been named the best South 

Island boys’ school, Christchurch 

Boys’ High students Jack 

Chapman, Matt White, Tom 

Woelders and Will Gilbert were 

also named as trialists. 

Tom recently won a head-tohead 

erg race against two-time 

Olympic gold medallist Eric 

Murray during a fundraiser 

at the school to get students to 

Maadi Cup. 

Former St Andrew’s student 

Zackary Rumble has also been 

selected for the trial. 

WORK IS well under way 

on a $500,000 project at the 

Waimairi Tennis Club, in 

Watford St, which will see 

improved surfaces for all seven 

courts on the Strowan site. 

Damaged by 

liquefaction 

and cracking 

following the 

earthquakes, 

the courts 

Lloyd Russell 

were repaired 

sufficiently to 

allow play to 

continue for the past seven years 

but the time had come for a major 

revamp, said club president 

Lloyd Russell. 

“Work started in January 

and play at the club has been 

out of action for three months 

with coaching and tennis 

programmes transferred to 

other venues. We’re very 

grateful to Elmwood and St 

Paul’s Tennis Clubs for letting 

us use their courts during this 

period. 

“And we’re very appreciative 

of the immediate neighbours 

who have been understanding 

while this sometimes noisy and 

dusty work is being carried out.” 

Four of the new courts will 

be cushioned hard courts for 

competition play and the other 

three are all-weather synthetic 

turf surfaces for coaching and 

training. 

Work is expected to be completed 

by the end of April and an 

ASTROTURF: Work is well under way at the Waimairi Tennis Club in Watford St as new 

surfaces are laid on the club’s seven courts. 

official opening celebration will 

be held at the start of the new 

season in September. 

The largest club in Canterbury, 

Waimairi has 370 juniors 

and 140 seniors. 

It has teams in many competitions. 

Waimairi was named 2017 

Club of the Year and was also a 

finalist for overall outstanding 

club of the year at the recent 

Nexia NZ Sport Canterbury 

Awards. 

Head coach Stu Chambers is 

the 2017 coach of the year.

Books for Ugandan pupils 

ENGLISH teacher 

Phoebe Wright recently 

left St Andrew’s College 

to take up a role in 

Uganda. 

But she didn’t leave 

without taking books 

from the school with 

her. 

Her year 9 StAC students 

had written created 

books for the pupils in 

Uganda as part of their 

curriculum. 

The books are now 

being shared all over the 

village, with hand-written

Device to prevent 

snoring 

Why put up with broken sleep, when 

help is at hand with Snorex, an appliance 

that prevents snoring, sleep apnoea, and 

dry and raw throats. 

Snorex is custom-fitted to your mouth 

for comfort, and a follow up service is 

provided. 

Denise Lim has been involved with 

Snores for 22 years 

and has had a 98% 

success rate with 

people using the 

appliance. Snoring 

can be a health 

hazard, causing 

sleep apnoea, where 

the person actually 

stops breathing for 

short periods. 

It can cause 

short-term memory 

loss, tiredness and 

contribute to high 

blood pressure. 

The Snorex 

device does not feel 

restrictive, is noninvasive 

and carries 


a money-back guarantee. 

Many people are referred by ear, nose 

and throat specialists, however, anyone can 

phone for an appointment. 

For an information pack or to discuss 

the Snorex further, phone Denise Lim on

Centuries old folk remedy 

supports good health! 

A fermented liquid health tonic offers an array of powerful health 

benefits. It is none other than the popular apple cider vinegar or ACV. 

Since the time of Hippocrates – the 

“Father of Medicine” – ACV has been 

renowned for its curative properties. 

In his popular book “ARTHRITIS & 

FOLK MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis 

reports how he found that Vermonters 

who regularly consumed ACV and Honey 

had excellent health with many putting in 

a vigorous day’s work on the farm even 

when well into their eighties. He also noted 

the effects of ACV and H on arthritis to be 

remarkable with many patients reporting 

almost total relief after taking a course 

of the mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised that 

the acid and potassium in cider vinegar 

counteracted calcium deposits and helped 

the body control calcium use. He also noted 

that Vermonters who consumed ACV and 

H around meal time had excellent blood 

pressure and circulation. The reason he 

found was that protein foods thickened the 

blood and vinegar thinned it. As the blood 

thickens it cannot pass as easily and quickly 

through the blood vessels and capillaries. 

This poor blood flow would reduce cellular 

health by limiting nutrients to the cells as 

well as waste elimination from the cells. 

To prevent cell damage the body naturally 

increases blood pressure but this puts 

more stress on the blood vessels, organs

and heart. Having ACV and H with meals 

will help prevent protein raising the blood 

pressure. It also contributes to a feeling 

of greater well-being because the thinner 

blood circulates quickly and more easily 

through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found 

regular consumption of CV and H to be 

an excellent health tonic with numerous 

Health attributes. 

ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all 

the goodness of the apple in a form that is 

readily accepted by the bodyGood health 

starts with good digestion and assimilation 

of nutrients. ACV taken before food will 

stimulate and promote healthy digestion 

and assimilation of vital nutrients for good 

health. A well-functioning digestive system 

helps prevent disease by neutralising any 

toxic substances that enter the body. 

It is important to note not all ACV is 

produced in the traditional way and results 

are likely to prove disappointing with these 

other vinegars. 

Marshall’s Premium ACV & ACV 

with 20% Manuka Honey is produced in 

Canterbury from Organic whole apples in 

the traditional way. It is double strength so 

you can use less.

International Rugby Programme 

The 2018 Burnside High School International Rugby Programme (IRP) 

commenced on 19 March. This year there are boys and girls from Germany, 

Argentina, Italy, Korea, Japan, Afghanistan and Scotland in the group. The 

IRP provides a programme of detailed rugby skill instruction, weight-training, 

speed and agility sessions and of course rugby team involvement until the 

end of August. 

The first two weeks involve detailed orientation with several guest speakers 

as well as physical and skill testing. The orientation is designed to help 

the students enjoy their homestay experience, to provide advice on how 

to proactively interact with their team-mates and to understand the New 

Zealand road rules - all in all, how to enjoy the next 22 weeks of their rugby 

adventure. The IRP has been running at Burnside High School from 2014 but 

has already produced Olympians in Sevens and male and female national 

team players in 7s and 15s. 

BHS PTA Uniform Shop 

The PTA Uniform Shop stocks new and second hand items. The shop 

is located at the front of the school in A1. Now is the time to purchase 

winter uniforms, all items are available at the shop. 

Opening Hours are: 

Monday lunchtime 1:00pm - 2:00pm 

Tuesdays after school 2.45pm - 4.00pm 

Wednesday 4th April after school 2.30pm - 4.00pm 

A visit from Seasprite helicopter 

The Navy Seasprite Helicopter is en route to the Warbirds Over Wanaka 

Airshow. When the opportunity arose for the Seasprite helicopter to make 

school visits on its way south, Burnside High School jumped at the chance. 

STEM activities and exhibitions 

Fifteen students from Ashburton College and Burnside High School 

recently gathered at the Burnside Campus for four days of Germantaught 

STEM activities and exhibitions (science, technology, engineering 

& mathematics). 

This opportunity was offered to all German-learning students from 

the two schools as part of the PASCH schools program through the 

Goethe-Institut, and was overseen by Goethe staff member Judith 

Geare. 

The foundation of the course was laid out on the first day, Friday, 

where Bianca Violet and Philipp Legner from Imaginary introduced 

the students to several computer programs based on fractals and 

polynomial graphing. From there the students were set free to think 

up their own exhibition projects and take them from paper sketches to 

reality over the next three days. 

With Christ The King School directly across the road they were also warmly 

welcomed over. 

As part of our career development programme, we invite many tertiary 

providers to speak with our students throughout the year, to provide them 

with a wide range of information and to assist them with their decision 

making. It is not often that they turn up in a helicopter! 

Today's helicopter visit was an amazing opportunity for 20 students who 

have expressed an interest in the Defence Force. They not only got to see a 

piece of the Defence Force in action; they also got to interact with the flight 

crew and pick their brains about the variety of occupations available. Many 

subject classes also benefited from the Seasprite’s visit, including Science 

classes discussing the transfer of energy that occurs during a helicopter take 

off; Physics classes discussing the rotor blades; and Mathematics classes with 

problem sets based around helicopters. 

We are grateful to the Defence Force for offering this opportunity to our 

school. 

Ideas ranged from metre-tall double pendulums to intricate optical 

illusions, something from every aspect of the STEM curriculum. 

The exhibits will be set up for viewing at the Burnside High School 

library until the end of Term 1 and then will travel down to Ashburton to 

allow all interested students (and keen maths teachers) to view, learn 

and interact.

HEALTH & BEAUTY 

The health 

effects of sugar 

Should we be alarmed or is this 

likely to be another area that science 

backtracks on? 

The answer to that question is Yes, 

we should be worried, there are real 

problems caused by the volume of sugar 

being consumed by the average person 

and when look back over the last decades 

the problem is getting worse, not better. 

developments in research and 

understanding the fields of nutrition 

and food safety change how we view 

products we consume and patterns of 

consumption can make the negative 

effects of foods more pronounced. 

while these advances should be 

embraced, as each development leads 

to better understanding and health 

outcomes it can also be frustrating to 

the average consumer who can feel like 

just when they ‘get’ a good healthy eating 

plan together, the rules change. 

The recommendations for sugar are a 

good example of how information can 

be confusing, some sources encourage 

the complete ban on all sugar containing 

products and others, such as the heart 

foundation recommend a reduction 

rather than complete removal. 

It’s not so confusing though really, at 

no time in history has sugar ever been 

presented as a healthy food, but as in the 

past it took more effort to consume sugar 

it was less of a problem, we could ‘get 

away with it’. 

In the past sugar was something that 

you could control through how much 

you added, in baking and to your cup of 

tea. This knowledge then transferred into 

the first generation of convenience food, 

if it was sweet, it had sugar in it. 

what we now face as a challenge is 

not that suddenly sugar is bad, but that 

it is added, often quietly, to many of the 

processed foods we consume, even when 

they aren’t sweet. 

The availability and often-reduced 

price of these foods compared to 

healthier option make them an easy 

choice to the time poor or uneducated 

consumer. 

There are some simple tips you can 

follow, including reading food labels; 

consuming as much food as possible 

in a state close to its natural form and 

avoiding sugary drinks. Consumers also 

need to be aware of marketing claims 

that do not provide the full nutritional 

picture of a product. 

A sensible place to start is by 

combining a diet low in processed food 

and sugar combined with regular activity 

What we now face as 

a challenge is not that 

suddenly sugar is bad, but 

that it is added, often quietly 

to many of the processed 

foods we consume, even 

when they aren’t sweet. 

as the path to long-term health. 

For more advice and direction to 

improve your health talk to your 

registered exercise professional, they can 

offer some advice and are able to refer 

you to sources of information and other 

nutritional professionals that you 

can trust.

Summer cooling 

“Did you know your heat pump is an air 

conditioner?” 

BUT!! If you bought it for heating it will 

struggle to cool the area as cooling is always 

less output e.g. Mitsubishi Electric MSZGE42 

= 5kW heating and 4.2kW cooling. So always 

ask your installer if you want cooling as well as 

heating. We at Air Con Christchurch always 

advise what we have quoted for. 

Heating tips 

Select “Heat” on heat pump and set 

temperature at approximately 21 – 22 degrees 

with fan on Auto 

Cooling tips 

Select “Cooling” and set at 20 – 22 degrees this 

will save you up to 30% running costs and still 

be cool (try it and see). 16 degrees is too low. 

Heat pump cleaning is now due for 

the winter.

HOME & HEATING 

Choosing the 

right heat pump 

for your home 

Whether it be a new build, or 

a retrofit, most homes include 

at least one heat pump, if not a 

whole heating solution. They can 

provide cheap, clean heat and are 

much more convenient than a log 

burner as you just need to press a 

button. But how do you decide 

what is best? Choosing the right 

sized heat pump is key to ensuring 

optimum comfort levels. Every 

situation varies and it is therefore 

important to get professional 

advice from heat pump experts. 

The range varies from wall 

mounted high walls, floor mounted systems, 

multi systems, ceiling cassettes, right through 

to ducted central heating systems allowing 

you to have a very discreet way of heating 

your whole home to a constant temperature 

throughout. 

Firstly, you must select a heat pump that is 

suitable for the size of the space you wish 

to heat. Usually a site visit is the best way to 

ascertain this. Not only is the size of the area 

taken into consideration but also, insulation, 

building orientation, windows and ceiling 

space. There are a wide range of heat pumps 

available with different heating outputs so it is 

important to select 

the correct size for 

Heating is a major 

investment in your home 

and it is vital to get the 

right advice. 

your requirements 

that will handle 

the job but not 

be unnecessarily 

overpowered. 

Secondly, the 

location of your 

heat pump is also extremely important. The 

cheapest installation is a back to back where 

the outdoor unit is positioned directly behind 

the indoor unit however this is not necessarily 

always the best option. It is vital that the indoor 

unit is positioned in a place that will not be 

constantly blowing on you. Also important, is 

the location of the outdoor unit. Most people 

do not want their outdoor unit sitting directly 

in their outdoor entertaining area or right 

outside their bedroom window. 

Choose a brand you can trust. Many brands 

have come and gone over the years but there 

are a number of manufacturers who provide 

reputable and reliable products. All brands 

vary in their energy efficiency, quietness of 

systems and price, so it depends on your 

application as to which will be most suitable. 

Major brands such as Panasonic, Fujitsu, 

Mitsubishi, Daikin, Toshiba and Hitachi are 

all reliable brands backed up by good technical 

after sales service. 

Ensure your heat pump is installed by an 

accredited installer. This will not only ensure 

correct installation of your heat pump, but also 

validate the manufacturers warranty. 

Other things to 

consider when 

choosing a heat pump 

are time clocks, ease 

of use of the remote 

controllers, air 

filtration and also wifi 

capabilities. 

Heating is a major 

investment in your home and it is vital to get 

the right advice.

installation and servicing of all major brands 

of heat pumps. Our salesmen are engineers

to which system will suit your application 

the best. Enviro Master Ltd offer a free, no

Fresh air 

in your home 

All houses require air exchange in order 

to stay fresh and dry. No one likes to live 

in a stuffy, smelly, damp home. Indoor air 

quality is important for the health of the 

occupants. Houses can have many sources of 

contaminants, such as bathrooms, kitchens, 

pets, smokers, and even furnishings. Opening 

the windows can refresh the air, but is not 

always an option for security reasons and can 

also lead to heat energy being lost to outside. 

Although older houses have small gaps around 

windows and doors, you want to be able to 

control the flow of air. You don’t want air 

coming in to the bathroom or kitchen and 

pushing the soiled air around the house. It 

is better to expel the air out of kitchens and 

bathrooms to outside. This will draw air in 

from the rest of the house to replace the air that 

has been removed. 

Modern houses are very airtight and 

theoretically require a source of incoming air 

to allow kitchen and bathroom extraction to 

work optimally. Ventilation systems should be 

low air velocity and low air pressure so as not 

to cause draughts. 

There are two main types of ventilation system: 

Positive pressure and Balanced pressure. 

Positive pressure systems, such as the Dry- 

Matic, bring filtered, warmed attic air into 

the house, which then percolates through the 

rooms, pushing the damper stale air out. 

Balanced pressure systems bring in a similar 

amount of air to the amount they exhaust. 

Balanced pressure systems with Heat 

Exchange, such as the HEX390, use the heat 

of the outgoing air to warm the incoming 

air from outside. These are the most energy 

efficient systems available, as they recover up 

to 80% of the energy in the air, rather than 

losing it to outside. Heat exchangers work just 

as well cooling incoming air when the house is 

cooled in summer. 

The NZ building code has recommended 

air exchange rates for houses. To ascertain 

the required airflow for your home, please 

contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH 

(0800 766 684), who will also be able to 

recommend a solution if your ventilation 

doesn’t yet meet the New Zealand standard.
