It is one of seven fire stations<br />
to be built post -earthquake as<br />
part of a $50 million project<br />

Senior station officer Shane<br />
O’Brien said the Anzac Fire<br />
Station will house the first<br />
“composite” station in the city,<br />
with both a 24/7 career crew<br />
and volunteer brigade.<br />

Rawhiti<br />
Domain<br />
sports<br />
facility<br />
goes to<br />
hearing<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
A 10-YEAR plan to open a $2.2<br />
million sports facility in New<br />
Brighton has taken a major step<br />
forward.<br />
A city council hearings panel<br />
was scheduled to meet yesterday<br />
which could give the green light<br />
for the Eastern Community<br />
Sports and Recreation Inc to<br />
lease the land it needs in Rawhiti<br />
Domain for the facility.<br />
But a stumbling block to work<br />
starting continues to be money.<br />
The group has raised $675,000<br />
for the project. Chairman Peter<br />
Burley said yesterday he hoped<br />
the project would start early next<br />
year and would look how the<br />
shortfall could be made up.<br />
It plans to relay the current<br />
tennis and netball courts with<br />
astro-turf and a put a purposebuilt<br />
canopy over them. The<br />
canopy set to cost $1.3 million.<br />
Mr Burley said he would be<br />
“pretty stunned” if the hearing<br />
panel did anything other than<br />
support the facility.<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />
Pedestrian crossing could go<br />
IT LOOKS like there is overwhelming<br />
support for the new sports facility in<br />
Rawhiti Doman (see page 1).<br />
The bulk of the submissions were in<br />
favour.<br />
And why would’t there be. The sports<br />
complex is a no-brainer.<br />
The project has been 10 years in the making and yesterday a<br />
hearings panel was scheduled to meet (it was after our deadline)<br />
to give the thumbs up or thumbs down for land to be leased for<br />
the project.<br />
But a stumbling continues to be money.<br />
The Eastern Community Sports and Recreation Inc has raised<br />
only a third of the $2.2 million they need.<br />
They have an ambitous plan to start work early next year. Lets<br />
hope it happens.<br />

Landmark could be floodlit<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
THE ICONIC New Brighton clock<br />
tower could be floodlit.<br />
The city council is investigating<br />
the possibility of illuminating the<br />
historical landmark built in the<br />
<strong>19</strong>30s.<br />
The idea was suggested at a<br />
Coastal-Burwood Community<br />
Board meeting by its chairwoman<br />
Kim Money.<br />
She said it<br />
would be nice<br />
to give the clock<br />
tower “some life in<br />
the evening” and<br />
it is a good opportunity<br />
to do it<br />
Kim Money<br />
while the tower is<br />
being upgraded.<br />
“Lighting can just enliven and<br />
make really beautiful statements of<br />
pieces,” she said.<br />
The city council started work on<br />
earthquake and historical damage<br />
repairs of the clock tower last<br />
month. They rae expected to be<br />
completed by September.<br />
City council staff are also following<br />
up on controlling weeds<br />
growing through the tiles under the<br />
scaffolding surrounding the tower.<br />

BOTTLE LAKE FOREST<br />
City council staff will now<br />
ensure the Waitikiri Drive gates<br />
at Bottle Lake Forest Park are<br />
closed at 10pm all year round. It<br />
comes after the Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board noted public<br />
concern over the inconsistent<br />
night-time closing of the security<br />
gates at the park.<br />
MEMORIAL TREES AT QE II<br />
The Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board has asked<br />
the city council to investigate a<br />
process for residents who wish<br />
to plant a memorial tree at QE II<br />
Park. The board’s chairwoman<br />
Kim Money said there has been<br />
a request from a resident to plant<br />
a tree. She said the city council<br />
is looking at the master plan<br />
for the remaining area of QE II<br />
Park and is waiting to hear from<br />
city council staff about how the<br />
process fits in with the plan. “It<br />
is lovely to think that somebody<br />
wants to do that”.<br />
SWEEPING UP RICHMOND<br />
City council staff plan to sweep<br />
the streets in Richmond more<br />
often in a bid to keep the area<br />
tidier. A report presented to the<br />

Community Board said the area<br />
outside the Richmond Village<br />
shopping centre is swept every six<br />
weeks, which is less than other<br />

Avebury House Community<br />
Trust is asking the public to lend<br />
a hand to get the new Richmond<br />
Men’s Shed up and running.<br />
It is asking for spare tools and<br />
donations. The money raised will<br />

and a door lock. The shed will be<br />
located next to Avebury House<br />
on Eveleyn Couzins Ave. If you<br />

EDGEWARE POOL<br />
A Give-a-little campaign was set<br />
to launch yesterday in a bid to<br />
begin fundraising for the new<br />
Edgeware Pool. The pool has a<br />
budget of $5 million, which will<br />
see a 25m outdoor pool and a<br />
14m indoor pool. A launch event<br />
to unveil the new logo was set to<br />
be held at the old pool entrance<br />
on Edgeware Rd. One of the<br />

Plans to rebuild yacht club revealed<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
PLANS FOR the long-awaited<br />
rebuild of the Pleasant Point<br />
Yacht Club have been revealed.<br />
A new club house, toilets,<br />
changing rooms, start box, committee<br />
room and general storage<br />
area will be included in the<br />
buildings.<br />
Two relocatable classrooms the<br />
club purchased from Canterbury<br />
University will be converted into<br />
the facilities.<br />
It is estimated to cost about<br />
$600,000 which the club has<br />
been fundraising for since 2012.<br />
A new boat shed is also in the<br />
plan, but the club is prioritising<br />
the other two buildings and will<br />
reassess how much additional<br />
money may need to be raised in<br />
the future.<br />
The club has been without<br />
proper facilities for more than<br />
seven years after its old building<br />
at Rat Island was destroyed in<br />
the earthquakes.<br />
In the interim, it has been<br />
using five shipping containers as<br />
makeshift facilities at South New<br />
Brighton Park.<br />
Club commodore Alastair<br />
Burgess said once the buildings<br />
are completed it will be a far<br />
BRIGHT FUTURE: Plans showing what the rebuilt Pleasant Point Yacht Club will look like have<br />
been revealed. <br />
more attractive proposition for<br />
the public than going to a yacht<br />
club “living out of a couple of<br />
containers”.<br />
The classrooms are due to arrive<br />
at South New Brighton Park<br />
at the end of August after the<br />
foundations have been laid.<br />
Sewerage, power and water<br />
services have been installed and<br />
are ready to be connected to the<br />
classrooms when they arrive.<br />
Yacht club committee<br />
member Dan O’Sullivan said it<br />
will be a luxury to have electricity<br />
after going without for so<br />
long.<br />
The road to the<br />
club’s rebuild has<br />
been a long one,<br />
with its temporary<br />
facilities targeted<br />
by a suspected arson<br />
attack in 2016.<br />
The club’s<br />
shipping<br />
containers have<br />
also had several<br />
Dan<br />
O’Sullivan<br />
break-ins, with the most recent<br />
on May 29.<br />
Mr O’Sullivan said the locks<br />
were alarmed and nothing was<br />
taken, but a pair of bolt cutters<br />
were left behind.<br />
He said while the club has<br />
“beefed-up” its security, it would<br />
like members of the public to<br />
keep an eye out for suspicious<br />
activity.<br />

Volunteers earn awards<br />
PROVIDING MUCH needed<br />
services to the community has<br />
led to several residents and<br />
organisations being recognised<br />
for their volunteer work in the<br />
eastern suburbs.<br />
They were presented at the<br />
Volunteer Canterbury volunteer<br />
recognition awards last night.<br />
Avebury House Community<br />
Trust’s Andrea Grieve, of Richmond;<br />
the Linwood Avenue<br />
Corner Trust; Shirley Community<br />
Trust’s Lynley Teague; The<br />
Champion Centre’s Margaret Giertz,<br />
of Burwood; and the Delta<br />
Community Support Trust’s van<br />
driving team in Richmond were<br />
recognised.<br />
The recipients were nominated<br />
for the awards by a range of community<br />
not-for-profit organisations.<br />
A founding member in 2002,<br />
Ms Grieve’s commitment to<br />
Avebury House Community<br />
Trust remains. She is involved<br />
with a comprehensive stock-take<br />
and cataloguing of the contents<br />
of Avebury House’s history<br />
room, ensuring the community<br />
of Richmond’s past is preserved<br />
for future generations.<br />
The Delta Community Support<br />
Trust van driving team was<br />
recognised for ensuring rescued<br />
food and bread is picked up, veggie<br />
packs are delivered around<br />
the city, and the vehicles are<br />
always ready to go.<br />
The Linwood Avenue Corner<br />
Trust was described as developing<br />
a “philosophy based on the<br />
privilege of service”. It provides<br />
free programmes to improve<br />
health and provide companionship<br />
for the lonely, isolated and<br />
vulnerable.<br />
Mrs Teague has been volunteering<br />
at the Nail Care Clinic<br />
which is a meeting place for<br />
older people and those with disabilities.<br />
Mrs Giertz volunteers her time<br />
to care for pre-school siblings of<br />
children who attend early intervention<br />
sessions at The Champion<br />
Centre. She was described<br />
in her nomination as providing<br />
“many hours of enjoyment”.<br />
The awards are held annually<br />
as part of National Volunteer<br />
Week.<br />
Bright new banners for Marian<br />
Brightly coloured new banners can now be found at Marian<br />
College. They include Maori kowhaiwhai and mamanu<br />
Samoa versions of the Marian College logo. They were<br />
designed by former student Naisina Lui, who is studying to<br />
become a flight attendant. The signs were made by Simply<br />

New fire station for<br />
crew and volunteers<br />
•From page 1<br />
The New Brighton Volunteer<br />
Brigade continued to operate<br />
out of their original premises on<br />
Hawke St.<br />
“We have been sharing a site,<br />
not necessarily a building and<br />
now we have all come together as<br />
one sharing the same building,”<br />
Mr O’Brien said.<br />
He said in a major event<br />
the station is built to be self -<br />
-contained with on site water<br />
and back up power generation<br />
to ensure it can continue<br />
functioning.<br />
“I can’t speak highly enough of<br />
the building, just the lift it is going<br />
to give the people who work<br />
on the station.”<br />
A public open day for the new<br />
station, built by Cook Brothers<br />
Construction, is planned in the<br />
next few weeks.<br />
The station will house two<br />
fire engine pumps, two support<br />
vehicles to act as “troop carriers”<br />
and a four -wheel-drive rural unit<br />
“smoke chaser” designed to get to<br />
inaccessible areas.<br />
The building itself has LED<br />
lighting with kitchen facilities<br />
and a social area.<br />
Mr O’Brien said it has got nice<br />
comfortable facilities that are<br />
easy to keep clean and is more<br />
power efficient than the old stations.<br />
He said it was important the<br />
New Brighton Volunteer Fire<br />
Brigade , which has been running<br />
since <strong>19</strong>08, retained its identity<br />
even though it has now moved to<br />
Wainoni.<br />
Mr O’Brien wanted to assure<br />
New Brighton residents it will<br />
still have a fire station and the<br />
same level of service.<br />
“It is just we are responding<br />
from a different place.”<br />

MORE THAN 500 people<br />
calling for safety improvements<br />
at a “dangerous” pedestrian<br />
crossing on Stanmore Rd could<br />
now lose it all together.<br />
The city council has<br />
recommended the crossing be<br />
removed after determining it is<br />
“not the correct type of facility”<br />
for the location.<br />
But city council transport<br />
operations manager Steffan<br />
Thomas said there are no firm<br />
proposals to remove the zebra<br />
crossing.<br />
It comes as more than<br />
500 signatures collected by<br />
Richmond resident Gillian<br />
Sheard was presented to the city<br />
council infrastructure, transport<br />
and environment committee on<br />
Wednesday.<br />
Ms Sheard was lobbying for<br />
the pedestrian crossing to either<br />
be raised or have traffic lights<br />
placed at the Stanmore Rd/<br />
Avalon St corner.<br />
She also wanted the speed<br />
on Stanmore Rd reduced from<br />
50km/h to 30km/h.<br />
However, a city council report<br />
said changes to the crossing<br />
do not rank highly against<br />
competing priorities for limited<br />
funds.<br />
It said council staff have<br />
investigated safety concerns<br />
and the volume of pedestrians<br />
observed is “well below the<br />
required warrant to install a new<br />
zebra crossing.”<br />
Staff surveyed people using<br />
the zebra crossing in August<br />
with the highest observed<br />
usage being 14 pedestrians per<br />
hour.<br />
The owner of Stanmore Rd’s<br />
The Sideline Sports Bar, Nikki<br />
Bradley, accused the city council<br />
of trying to find a cheap way to<br />
solve the problem.<br />
It is “absolutely ridiculous,” she<br />
said.<br />
“The first death will be on<br />
their hands . . . people are still<br />
going to have to cross that road<br />
and if there is not going to be a<br />
crossing at all there is going<br />
to be accidents galore,” she<br />
said.<br />
Miss Bradley said you don’t<br />
solve a problem by “wiping it<br />
out” and the recommendation<br />
makes her “quite angry.”<br />
She said near misses happen<br />
“basically every day.”<br />
But Richmond Residents<br />
and Business Association<br />
chairwoman Hayley Guglietta<br />
said the petition has had the<br />
opposite affect.<br />
She said it will annoy a lot of<br />
people including herself if the<br />
crossing is taken away because<br />
she lives close by and it will be<br />
an “inconvenience.”<br />

Stanmore Rd pedestrian<br />
crossing could be removed<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
REMOVAL: The city council has recommended removing<br />
a pedestrian crossing on Stanmore Rd in spite of more<br />
than 500 people signing a petition for it to receive safety<br />
improvements.<br />
PHOTOS: MARTIN HUNTER<br />
Her view was backed by<br />
resident Jennifer Dalziel who<br />
said she is against them taking<br />
away the crossing.<br />
She said the petition has forced<br />
the city council to do something<br />
which has led to them getting<br />
rid of it.<br />
“(Ms Sheard) has forced them<br />
to do something and what they<br />
have decided to do is get rid of<br />
it,” Ms Dalziel said.<br />

135 Burwood Hospital and<br />
150 The Palms bus routes<br />
Kath Strong – We have<br />
lived at the QE II end of Beach<br />
Rd for more than 45 years and<br />
have always had a bus service at<br />
the gate. We attempted once to<br />
use the small red bus but found<br />
it quite dangerous to get on,<br />
and very scary getting off, due<br />
to the height of the step to the<br />
ground. The 1km walk to the<br />
other side of Bower Ave in order<br />
to get to a Christchurch Hospital<br />
bus proved to be exhausting,<br />
especially when you are<br />
recuperating from an operation.<br />
Ironically, the operation was<br />
done at Burwood Hospital. The<br />
post-operation appointments<br />
were at Christchurch Hospital.<br />
Now we park the car in New<br />
•From page 1<br />
“There are so many positive<br />
outcomes for the community and<br />
most of the submissions were<br />
positive,” Mr Burley said.<br />
Public consultation on leasing<br />
parts of the domain took place<br />
last month. Out of 62 submissions<br />
received, 55 were in support<br />
of the plan.<br />
Five submissions indicated<br />
general support for the proposal,<br />
but expressed concerns about the<br />
reduced availability of the tennis<br />
courts for wider public use.<br />
Mr Burley said he is not worried<br />
about the hearing, the issue<br />
is getting the funding together.<br />
The organisation has raised<br />
Brighton and catch the Yellow<br />
Line. I have tried to explain<br />
how we have been overlooked,<br />
especially since the No 60 bus<br />
was taken away and I am sure<br />
we are not on our own. There<br />
are several examples I could give<br />
you. We can no longer take the<br />
bus to New Brighton Club; can<br />
no longer take the bus to New<br />
Brighton Health Care; can no<br />
longer take the bus to The Palms.<br />
The list goes on. We are in our<br />
70s now. Never thought our<br />
public bus service would change<br />
like this.<br />
Pauline Morgan – I am in<br />
my mid -80s and walk with the<br />
aid of a walker. At the present<br />
time, I can catch a bus from<br />
Effingham St and will be in<br />
about half the funding it needs<br />
for the project, Mr Burley said.<br />
The current tennis courts at the<br />
domain were partially repaired<br />
after the earthquakes.<br />
Brighton in 6min. With the<br />
new proposed route, I am told<br />
I will have to catch the 60 bus<br />
to the corner of Rookwood and<br />
Bower Aves, get off the bus and<br />
walk to QE II, and catch the 80<br />
from there, which will no doubt<br />
take me 40-50min to get to New<br />
Brighton and the same back with<br />
shopping. Not a good service.<br />
Especially as there is a call for<br />
people to support the shops in<br />
New Brighton. It will also be<br />
difficult for young mums with<br />
prams and children.<br />
A reader responds to an<br />
article about the ongoing<br />
roadworks at North Avon<br />
Rd which continue to put<br />
pressure on Richmond<br />
businesses<br />
Mr Burley said the state of the<br />
courts was “not that bad”, but the<br />
organisation wants a better quality<br />
facility.<br />
He said the only “caveat” is<br />
Jane Ross – Thank you for<br />
your article about Richmond<br />
Village. Those businesses have<br />
tried hard to keep the village<br />
feel and it seems with no<br />
compensation for their business<br />
disruption. As the long-time<br />
butcher who closed last time<br />
said, they still had to pay their<br />
full rent with no customers. The<br />
city council has allowed the<br />
works to proceed at the least cost<br />
to it. The businesses definitely<br />
should have been compensated.<br />
The disruption has happened<br />
repeatedly and for too long each<br />
time. Protecting the livelihoods<br />
of people after the earthquake is<br />
just as important as repairing the<br />
infrastructure.<br />
Readers respond to an<br />
article about the call<br />
from cyclists for the<br />
New Zealand Transport<br />
Agency to change its<br />
decision not to include a<br />
separated cycleway along<br />
Dyers Rd during the recent<br />
upgrade<br />
Bruce Burns – I am a<br />
regular road cyclist along Dyers<br />
Rd. To me, it is very safe. It has<br />
a cycle lane and plenty of room,<br />
not a problem.<br />
Gary Knight – The presence<br />
of the Christchurch Coastal<br />
Pathway is a very innovative<br />
project aimed at reducing<br />
that residents don’t stop it from<br />
running tournaments across all<br />
four courts.<br />
“You don’t want your resource<br />

are there for a tournament,” Mr<br />

negative carbon environmental<br />
footprints within our Garden<br />
City in a very positive vein.<br />
It is imperative therefore that<br />
this concept is promoted at every<br />
juncture. Cycleways, improved<br />
footpaths and pedestrian<br />
crossings, while commendable,<br />
are minimal and leave a void in<br />
the overall status of required<br />
cycleway upgrades along Dyers<br />
Rd.<br />
Traffic volume, inclusive of<br />
trailers with often insecure loads,<br />
is a factor that should have been<br />
considered with the sanctioning<br />
of the 2017 $3.2 million Dyers<br />
Rd widening. It should also<br />
have been inclusive of advanced,<br />
separate cycleways, a sentiment<br />
reiterated by city councillor Yani<br />
Johanson.<br />
Within this context,<br />
submissions made by cyclists to<br />
the Long Term Plan pertaining<br />
to this issue must be scrutinised<br />
and appraised.<br />
The original plans by NZTA<br />
opposing Dyers Rd cycle lanes<br />
should be redressed, reviewed<br />
and overturned.<br />
This is paramount for Dyers<br />
Rd to become an integral part<br />
of the New Brighton to Sumner<br />
cycle route along the Coastal<br />
Pathway.<br />
Future criteria for NZTA<br />
must surely include a<br />
fundamental requirement to<br />
have cycleways included in state<br />
highways.<br />

Richmond to get new<br />
housing complex<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-<br />
Harding<br />
CONSTRUCTION is<br />
under way for a new<br />
housing complex in<br />
Richmond.<br />
Housing New Zealand is<br />
building a 23-unit, three -<br />
level complex to help meet<br />
the one and two-bedroom<br />
state housing demand<br />
across the city.<br />
The development, to<br />
be located at Eveleyn<br />
Couzins Pl, will comprise<br />
of 23 one -bedroom<br />
units on the side of the<br />
site, which is due for<br />
completion next month.<br />
The other development<br />
includes 14 two-bedroom<br />
units across two storeys<br />
and will be completed in<br />
October.<br />

BIG IDEA: Joanna<br />
Gould in front<br />

idea to market<br />

restaurants and<br />
takeaways as<br />
an international<br />

A PLAN to market<br />
Stanmore Rd’s restaurants<br />
and takeaways as an<br />
international smorgasbord<br />
could be the solution to<br />
Richmond’s commercial<br />
woes.<br />
Resident Joanna Gould<br />
has formed an idea to promote<br />
Stanmore Rd’s food<br />
businesses under a new<br />
brand called Kai Town<br />
which she hopes will create<br />
an identity for the area.<br />
She is hoping it will<br />
address the number of<br />
untenanted commercial<br />
properties in the area. It<br />
comes as the road works at<br />
North Avon Rd continue<br />
to put pressure on Richmond<br />
businesses.<br />
Mrs Gould said the<br />
former Movieman Video<br />
Shop, the Uniform Centre<br />
and former Richmond<br />
Electrical shop were three<br />
obvious places where there<br />
could be restaurants.<br />
DEVELOPMENT: Housing New Zealand is<br />
developing a 23 unit, three- level complex to be<br />
located on Eveleyn Couzins Pl. <br />
area manager Fraser<br />
Benson said the new<br />
warm, dry homes will<br />
replace the six older homes<br />
previously located on the<br />
site.<br />
“We expect a mix of<br />
singles, couples and<br />
families will live in this<br />
complex,” he said.<br />
Stanmore Rd has a<br />
wide range of food outlets,<br />
including Chillax Cafe &<br />
Restaurant, Taj of India,<br />
North Avon Fish Fry<br />
and the Persian Kitchen.<br />
Mrs Gould is planning to<br />
discuss her ideas with the<br />
newly-formed Richmond<br />
Residents and Business<br />
Association to get business<br />
owners on board.<br />
She will also consider<br />
presenting her ideas to<br />
the Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community<br />
Board. The Kai Town idea<br />
was prompted by her interest<br />
in Richmond’s Maori<br />
and British heritage.<br />
She said it was about understanding<br />
the area’s history<br />
before learning about<br />
the different nationalities<br />
coming to live and work in<br />
the area.<br />
“There is more to Richmond<br />
Village than just the<br />
shops on Stanmore Rd; we<br />
need help to tell our story,”<br />
Mrs Gould said.<br />
She is also calling for a<br />

Idea to make Stanmore Rd<br />
an international smorgasbord<br />
Richmond Village website<br />
and a master plan similar<br />
to the Edgeware Village<br />
master plan.<br />
She suggested the plan<br />
could include street lighting<br />
with colourful flags of<br />
the different nationalities<br />
living in the community,<br />
an outdoor seating/picnic<br />
space and a “walkable<br />
centre”.<br />
City councillor Deon<br />
Swiggs said he loves the<br />
ideas and would welcome<br />
Mrs Gould to present<br />
them at the community<br />
board.<br />
“I am fully supportive<br />
. . . but it is going to be<br />
tricky because, economically,<br />
there are some challenges,”<br />
he said.<br />
Richmond Residents<br />
and Business Association<br />
chairwoman Hayley<br />
Guglietta said it is one of<br />
many good ideas coming<br />
from the community. The<br />
association is interested in<br />
establishing a heritage trail<br />
for the area.<br />

established to work in collaboration with<br />
the Burwood stroke rehabilitation team.<br />
Participants raved so much about the<br />
classes and the benefits they experienced<br />
from this exercise program that it has<br />
now grown from one weekly class to four<br />
weekly classes. New classes have also been<br />
added to be effective for those who have<br />
suffered from Osteoporosis, Intermittent<br />
Claudication, and Diabetes. On top of<br />
that they also run four weekly classes<br />
for seniors. These weekly rehabilitation<br />
and injury prevention classes can lead to<br />
continued gym membership at a reduced<br />
cost. Participants may also be eligible for<br />
a WINZ subsidy to pay for the continued<br />
gym membership with their super<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Supporting Your<br />
Bowel & Digestive<br />
Function Helps<br />
Prevent Disease<br />
It is most important to keep the whole<br />
digestive & elimination systems of the<br />
body working efficiently. Otherwise toxins<br />
that have not been eliminated set the stage<br />
for disease. Many diseases have been linked<br />
with micro-organisms (virus) or a bacterial<br />
component. Generally these microorganisms<br />
or bacteria can only survive<br />
due to the fact that the environment they<br />
are in is suitable for their survival. Non<br />
eliminated toxins are probably one of the<br />
main causative factors for their survival.<br />
We know that when the digestive system<br />
& bowel function are poor we have many<br />
more health problems. These include<br />
arthritis, digestive problems like reflux &<br />
stomach pain, bladder infections, chronic<br />
skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis &<br />
rashes, poor eyesight, pain & inflammation,<br />
tumors & a weakened immune system just<br />
to name a few.<br />
Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a<br />
highly effective blend of natural herbs to<br />
support the whole digestive system & it is<br />
especially effective at cleansing the lower<br />
bowel & intestinal tract. It is commonly<br />
used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea,<br />
digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds &<br />
influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout, skin<br />
conditions like eczema & psoriasis, urinary<br />
infections, liver dysfunction, Candida,<br />
weakened immune function & for people<br />
who want to keep their health as good as<br />
possible.<br />
The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the<br />
production of digestive fluids & bile for<br />
efficient digestion. This alone may help<br />
prevent many diseases as a properly working<br />
digestive system will itself neutralise many<br />
disease causing organisms before they<br />
have a chance to cause any problems. LBS<br />
II also stimulates peristaltic action of the<br />
colon effectively cleansing the colon of any<br />
accumulated build-ups of waste material. It<br />
also relaxes abdominal cramping & spasms,<br />
enhances liver function, purifies the blood,<br />
neutralizes acidic conditions, helps destroy<br />
intestinal parasites & worms, & fights<br />
infection.<br />
Keeping your digestive system & bowels<br />
functioning efficiently is definitely &<br />
important step in obtaining & maintaining<br />
good long term health.<br />

1 in 2 people<br />
deficient in B12<br />
Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults<br />
& as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.<br />
Scientists at Rush University Medical Center found those most<br />
deficient in vitamin B12 to have the smallest brain mass & the lowest<br />
scores on tests measuring short-term memory, concentration &<br />
brain performance. Another study showed that older people with<br />
higher levels of B12 in their blood have bigger, healthier brains &<br />
score higher on cognitive tests than those with lower levels. Yet<br />
another recent landmark study showed that B12 supplementation<br />
slows the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage & declining cognitive<br />
function. B12 is essential for energy production, cell health,<br />
regulation of mood & sleep cycles, nerve health & repair, &<br />
prevention of homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk factor<br />
that is known to cause damage & plaque in the blood vessels. It can<br />
also increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard researchers found a<br />
34% decrease risk of vision loss in a study of participants aged 40+<br />
who supplemented with B12. Another study linked a higher risk<br />
of hearing loss in subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.<br />
The reason so many people lack B12 appears to be our body’s<br />
ability to absorb it declining with age as the digestive system<br />
becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux medication & other drugs<br />
further reduce B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in<br />
the form of Methylcobalamin<br />
sublingual tablets that are<br />
dissolved in the<br />
mouth & thru<br />
bypassing the<br />
digestive tract have<br />
been shown to<br />
effectively raise B12<br />
levels in the body.<br />

Fresh air<br />
in your home<br />
Get the right<br />
choice for winter<br />
All houses require air exchange in order<br />
to stay fresh and dry. No one likes to live<br />
in a stuffy, smelly, damp home. Indoor air<br />
quality is important for the health of the<br />
occupants. Houses can have many sources of<br />
contaminants, such as bathrooms, kitchens,<br />
pets, smokers, and even furnishings. Opening<br />
the windows can refresh the air, but is not<br />
always an option for security reasons and can<br />
also lead to heat energy being lost to outside.<br />
Although older houses have small gaps<br />
around windows and doors, you want to be<br />
able to control the flow of air. You don’t want<br />
air coming in to the bathroom or kitchen and<br />
pushing the soiled air around the house. It<br />
is better to expel the air out of kitchens and<br />
bathrooms to outside. This will draw air in<br />
from the rest of the house to replace the air that<br />
has been removed.<br />
Modern houses are very airtight and<br />
theoretically require a source of incoming air<br />
to allow kitchen and bathroom extraction to<br />
work optimally. Ventilation systems should be<br />
low air velocity and low air pressure so as not<br />
to cause draughts.<br />
There are two main types of ventilation<br />
system: Positive pressure and Balanced<br />
pressure. Positive pressure systems, such as the<br />
Dry-Matic, bring filtered, warmed attic air into<br />
the house, which then percolates through the<br />
rooms, pushing the damper stale air out.<br />
Balanced pressure systems bring in a<br />
similar amount of air to the amount they<br />
exhaust. Balanced pressure systems with Heat<br />
Exchange, such as the HEX390, use the heat<br />
of the outgoing air to warm the incoming<br />
air from outside. These are the most energy<br />
efficient systems available, as they recover up<br />
to 80% of the energy in the air, rather than<br />
losing it to outside. Heat exchangers work just<br />
as well cooling incoming air when the house is<br />
cooled in summer.<br />
The NZ building code has recommended<br />
air exchange rates for houses. To ascertain<br />
the required airflow for your home, please<br />
contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH<br />
(0800 766 684), who will also be able to<br />
recommend a solution if your ventilation<br />
doesn’t yet meet the New Zealand standard.<br />
Every year around about<br />
now people start to plan<br />
ahead for their winter<br />
heating needs. High on<br />
most people’s ‘must have’<br />
list is a Heat Pump. They<br />
have naturally become<br />
extremely popular because<br />
of their cheap heat and<br />
“touch of a button”<br />
convenience.<br />
Heat pumps are<br />
however a significant,<br />
long term investment, so<br />
it’s important to make the<br />
right choice.<br />
New Zealand properties tend to be of<br />
unique design and have many features that<br />
greatly affect their heating requirements.<br />
Factors such as location, orientation to<br />
the sun, room volume, heat loss surface<br />
area, and room air flow characteristics, etc.<br />
all play a major role. This means that the<br />
heat pump that is right for your friend or<br />
neighbour is not necessarily right for you.<br />
Add to that the fact that all manufacturers<br />
claim to have the best, quietest, most energy<br />
efficient, and have a multitude of constantly<br />
updating models; finding out which heat<br />
pump is best is not so straightforward.<br />
Getting the right heat pump for your<br />
home is a combination of accurate<br />
calculation of the space to be heated, taking<br />
into account all property characteristic,<br />
plus an up to date knowledge of the<br />
performance specifications of all makes<br />
and models available.<br />
This is where the local company Heat<br />
Pump Guys can help. They are fully<br />
independent heat pump specialists, and are<br />
accredited agents for all top brands. They<br />
offer an obligation-free home survey and<br />
completely unbiased advice on which heat<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />
Choosing the right heat<br />
pump for your home<br />
Whether it be a new build, or a retrofit,<br />
most homes include at least one heat pump,<br />
if not a whole heating solution. They can<br />
provide cheap, clean heat and are much<br />
more convenient than a log burner as you<br />
just need to press a button. But how do you<br />
decide what is best? Choosing the right<br />
sized heat pump is key to ensuring optimum<br />
comfort levels. Every situation varies and<br />
it is therefore important to get professional<br />
advice from heat pump experts.<br />
The range varies from wall mounted high<br />
walls, floor mounted systems, multi systems,<br />
ceiling cassettes, right through to ducted<br />
central heating systems allowing you to have<br />
a very discreet way of heating your whole<br />
home to a constant temperature<br />
throughout.<br />
Firstly, you must select a heat<br />
pump that is suitable for the size<br />
of the space you wish to heat.<br />
Usually a site visit is the best<br />
way to ascertain this. Not only<br />
is the size of the area taken into<br />
consideration but also, insulation,<br />
building orientation, windows<br />
and ceiling space. There are a wide<br />
range of heat pumps available<br />
with different heating outputs<br />
so it is important to select the<br />
correct size for your requirements<br />
that will handle the job but not be<br />
unnecessarily overpowered.<br />
Secondly, the location of your heat<br />
pump is also extremely important. The<br />
cheapest installation is a back to back where<br />
the outdoor unit is positioned directly<br />
behind the indoor unit however this is<br />
not necessarily always the best option. It is<br />
vital that the indoor unit is positioned in a<br />
place that will not be constantly blowing on<br />
you. Also important, is the location of the<br />
outdoor unit. Most people do not want their<br />
outdoor unit sitting directly in their outdoor<br />
entertaining area or right outside their<br />
bedroom window.<br />
Choose a brand you can trust. Many<br />
brands have come and gone over the years<br />
but there are a number of manufacturers<br />
who provide reputable and reliable products.<br />
All brands vary in their energy efficiency,<br />
quietness of systems and price, so it depends<br />
on your application as to which will be most<br />
suitable. Major brands such as Panasonic,<br />
Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, Daikin, Toshiba and<br />
Hitachi are all reliable brands backed up by<br />
good technical after sales service.<br />
Ensure your heat pump is installed by an<br />
accredited installer. This will not only ensure<br />
correct installation of your heat pump, but<br />
also validate the manufacturers warranty.<br />
Other things to consider when choosing<br />
a heat pump are time clocks, ease of use of<br />
the remote controllers, air filtration and also<br />
wifi capabilities.<br />
Heating is a major investment<br />
in your home and it is vital to get<br />
the right advice.<br />
Enviro Master Ltd specialise<br />
in the supply, installation and<br />
servicing of all major brands<br />
of heat pumps. Our salesmen<br />

559 sq m property slopes away from the<br />
street frontage, so a drive-by won’t do here<br />
- when we said privacy, we meant it! The<br />
home has been meticulously maintained<br />
and updated, retaining all the desirable<br />
architectural features of its era and adding<br />
modern style and convenience.<br />
Sunny, open plan living and dining areas<br />
both open through French doors to a deck<br />
with views toward the city and beyond. A<br />
gas fire and heat pump ensure year round<br />
comfort. A gorgeous modern kitchen<br />
adjoins the dining area with tons of bench<br />
and storage space and quality stainless<br />
steel appliances. On this level there are<br />
two double bedrooms and a single as<br />
well as one of two bathrooms, a laundry<br />
and guest toilet. Upstairs is a huge area<br />
currently furnished as the master suite but<br />
easily able to be a very large games room.<br />
Adjoining this space is a very generous<br />
bathroom with spa bath, separate shower<br />
and double vanity. Magnificent views from<br />
this area will provide wow factor day and<br />
night 24/7.<br />
There is a single garage at the top of the<br />
property and a double garage at the bottom<br />
so plenty of storage space for cars and toys.<br />
With attractive garden areas both front<br />
and back this family home oozes charm<br />
from every angle.<br />

T<br />
he firs time I woke up with a cold nose in my brand<br />
new home, I wa shocked. How could this be? The<br />
cool, calm, collected one and I had planned for our<br />
home to be well insulated against Canterbury’s<br />
cold winters. Turns out, not well enough. We’d<br />
even a sured a we l-meaning friend we had ample<br />
insulation (yes, Duncan, you were right). I’ve worked out where we<br />
fe l short in hindsight. Our home was designed by highly respected<br />
Christchurch architec the late Peter Beaven, for a magic little<br />
Port Hill site, where he planned to live in with his wife Lesley.<br />
Sadly Peter died before realising his plans. We bough them and<br />
employed Archology in Sydney, where we were living a the time, to<br />
prepare the construction drawings and specifications. Compared to<br />
Australia, the R values for insulation would have looked high. Our<br />
talented young builder, Sam McCarthy, would never have queried<br />
the levels because they were standard practice around town. So it<br />
wasn’t until we were living in the house and I consulted Council’s<br />
eco design advisor Julie Vi lard about how we could warm it up that<br />
we discovered, while we unwittingly thought we had exceeded New<br />
Zealand standard, we had merely met Code. And that ain’t going to<br />
cut it in our climate.<br />
Fortunately Julie had plenty of ideas on how we could improve<br />
the situation and we have easy acce s to our underfloor to top-up<br />
the insulation. Julie Villard, an architect from France, is on a mi sion<br />
to transform building best practice here and you can read abou the<br />
groundbreaking idea she’s applied to her own brand new build on<br />
page 20.<br />
I’ve shared the highs and lows of building with the other home<br />
builders and renovators I interviewed and, like Diane (page 36), would<br />
relish doing it again. I wa struck by how all the home owner said<br />
wha they most valued was the ability of their designer or builder to<br />
“really listen” to their wants and needs. I was also impre sed by how<br />
much Christchurch people love a good garage! We’ve got some ideas<br />
for some top of their cla s cars to complement yours on page 81 and<br />
how to quickly establish a lawn on page 72.<br />
We review a l the lates trends in everyone’s favourite room –<br />
the kitchen (page 48), and share an easy yet impressive recipe for<br />
entertaining friends in your fabulous new home on page 77.<br />
I hope Peter Beaven would be pleased with how the cool, calm,<br />
co lected one and I realised his dream. Go chase yours people!<br />

Speaking to the NZ Institute of Architects about ‘bespoke<br />
architecture’ being a ‘minority pursuit’ not long before his death<br />
Peter said “I am going to try to prove that it’s possible to build<br />
modestly and cheaply with a little house for ourselves. It’s going to<br />
be sustainable and it’s going to be beautiful and it’s going to be just<br />
cheap – no more than an ordinary spec house. I’ l prove that it can<br />
be done, and it might be the las thing I prove.”<br />
