Adding beauty
to the banks
of the Avon River
Performing in spite of the odds
• By Georgia O’Connor-
Harding
EVER SINCE she was a
child, there is nothing else
Laurel Gregory has wanted
to do other than perform on
stage.
But it has been a “rocky”
road for the Richmond
22-year-old, who has been
battling an auto-immune
disease for about 14 years,
which has led to her being
diagnosed with arthritis.
Yet instead of feeling
sorry for herself, she has
refused to let anything
stop her from chasing
her dream of becoming a
professional musical theatre
performer.
Gregory is currently
training in New York City
at the Broadway Dance
Center as part of a threemonth
programme.
Founded in 1984, the dance
school is known as one of the
first drop-in studios to be
established in the world and
has more than 80 teachers
and choreographers taking
classes.
As part of her training,
Gregory is attending 12
classes a week, including
ballet, bodyArt and
contemporary dance. She
said she chose to attend the
school after needing a “fresh
perspective” on dancing.

Pressure
ramps up
to start
Oram Ave
extension
• By Matt Slaughter
CALLS TO make funding for the
proposed Oram Ave extension
available sooner are being
supported.
The project is being overseen by
Development Christchurch Ltd
and is currently scheduled to be
completed in the 2018-2028.
DCL manager of communications
and engagement Cecilia
Densham said: “DCL supports
the Oram Ave project and would
certainly like to see it brought
forward.”
Coastal Ward councillor David
East and the New Brighton Business
and Landowners Association
also said the $12 million budgeted
to go towards the completion of
the project should be made available
sooner.
Cr East said given DCL’s support,
he would now seriously consider
making a formal proposal to
the city council to get the Oram
Ave extension under way.
He said DCL’s support of
the project would give him the
grounds he needed to take a
more formal approach to have the
funding brought forward.

SAME OLD, same old for road repairs in
the eastern suburbs.
Part of New Brighton Rd (page 3) is in
desperate need of an upgrade.
I lived on New Brighton Rd before, and
for about 18 months after the February 22, 2011, earthquake.
The road was severely damaged. Every time a truck or a vehicle
towing a trailer went by it felt like another quake had struck.
Sometimes it felt like the house might collapse.
So, I feel the frustration of the Coastal-Burwood Community
Board in their bid hasten repairs.
The city’s leaders have rarely – in my view anyway –
prioritised the east. New Brighton Rd is another example.
All power to the community board to make life better for
those in the east.

Two-year wait for road repairs
• By Matt Slaughter
ROAD USERS in the east will
have to wait another two years
for one of the area’s most badly
damaged roads to be repaired.
THe city council has confirmed
the repair to New Brighton Rd
between Bower Ave and the
Pages Rd roundabout will take
place in 2020-21 at a cost of
about $1.2 million.
Members of
the Coastal-
Burwood
Community
Board said this
is too long to
wait and they
Kim Money
would continue
to put pressure
on the city
council to start work now.
Deputy chairman Tim Sintes
said the community board’s
concerns about the state of the
stretch of road would continue
to be raised in its meetings until
the city council did something
about it.
“It won’t go away until it’s
fixed. The community board’s
members like myself and others
get it coming to us all the time,
so we’ll just keep bringing it up
all the time.”
Board chairwoman Kim
Money said: “We just need to
be seeing some action because
it is seriously affecting the wellbeing
of our residents. A lot of
these earthquake repairs that
we haven’t seen for the last eight
years are attached to the wellbeing
of the community.
“On a daily basis, we are
seeing these repairs that haven’t
been done and that’s really
hard, so for us to be able to move
these things forward would be
good.”
Ms Money said the stretch of
road was an “absolute disgrace.”
“THere’s plenty of potholes,
bumpy road dips and water
flooding on it . . . the pothole
people must be in there virtually
every week filling potholes.”
THe city council has also said
the project won’t include the
repair of the Cockayne Reserve
car park.
Ms Money said the car park
had been used as a dumping
ground by contractors and it was
common for shingle and metal
to be dumped there.
UNEVEN:
Road users
will have to
wait another
two years for
New Brighton
Rd between
Bower Ave and
the Pages Rd
roundabout to
be fixed.
“It really is an eyesore … it
really is just not fair for the
residents and the shops and
retailers in that area.”
Mr Sintes said the community
board had been calling for New
Brighton Rd to be repaired
since the February 22, 2011,
earthquake and another twoyear
delay would be a huge blow
for residents.
“New Brighton Rd has been
on the agenda for so long and
it’s just so disappointing to see it
taking this long.”

CONSENT FOR CAR PARK
A new car park will be
constructed at Thomson Park
on Marine Pde. Resource
consent has been approved and
the project will be completed
by June. The new car park is
part of a project to renew the
facilities in the park. A new
public toilet was installed in
December and the project will
also involve the installation
of a new basketball court and
the completion of landscaping
work. Meanwhile, a project to
repair earthquake damage in
Bexley Park will get under way
this month. The car park will
be replaced, upgrades will be
made to the track connecting
the car park and toilet, and a
damaged footbridge will be
removed.
BUS STOP UPGRADE
The Pegasus Post reported
last week the Papanui-

upgrade the bus stop and
shelter on Shirley Rd in
front of the Palms Shopping

approved and actually only
considered and was discussed
at a meeting on February 22
rather than February 18, as
was first reported.

Dead birds
not linked
to spraying
ENVIRONMENT Canterbury
has reassured Southshore
residents dead birds in the area
are not related to the spraying of
the spartina pest plant.
ECan said the birds were quite
some distance from the spraying
of the chemical Haloxyfop
and recently died, so it was very
unlikely that they were affected
in any way by spray.
ECan principal of resource
management adviser of
biosecurity Laurence Smith
said spraying was “applied to
spartina at low tide to allow the
maximum amount of time for
the chemical to take effect. It
has been mixed and applied at
the lowest concentrations to still
be effective, and only to a very
limited number of plants . . . at
these levels, the chance of birds
or other animals dying from the
chemical is extremely low.”
The controlled application
of Haloxyfop was undertaken
jointly by the city council, the
Department of Conservation
and ECan at selected sites
around the Avon/Heathcote
Estuary, McCormacks Bay and
Brooklands Reserve.
This is to follow up on initial
control works that were undertaken
at a similar time last year.

IT HAS TAKEN two bike
crashes in 2min to convince the
city council to fill potholes near
Banks Avenue School.
On February 22, two pupils
were left scraped and bruised
after hitting rough patches on
River Rd, Shirley, in separate
crashes.
Neighbouring resident Patrick
Boland found both pupils after
they had fallen off their bikes.
Mr Boland and principal Toni
Burnside then got in touch with
the city council and asked it to
fix the street.
Mr Boland said he has been
asking the city council for five
years to make the road safe, but
very little had been done.
City council road maintenance
manager Mark Pinner said a
“small number of potholes” have
now been fixed.
Mrs Burnside said injuries
were almost a daily occurrence
for pupils who walked and biked
to school along River Rd.
A parent of one of the pupils
who fell of their bike, Cathy
Allden, said although her son
Jack wasn’t seriously injured, he
was shaken by the accident.
“It could have been worse if a
car had been close . . . he literally
fell right into the middle of the
road.”
Mrs Burnside said the two
crashes were “just the tip of the
iceberg as far as children who are
hurting themselves goes.”
Banks Avenue School is due to
move to a new site in 2021.
Mr Pinner said since 2015, the
city council has serviced River
Rd and other roads in the red
zone less regularly.
Mrs Burnside said repairing
the road completely may not be
the best option because it is in
the red zone, but work needs
to be done to ensure it remains
safe.

diagnosed with rheumatoid and
psoriatic arthritis.
Gregory said both conditions
are caused by the auto-immune
disease, psoriasis, which causes a
rapid build-up of skin cells.
Before she was diagnosed, she
was told her skin condition was a
result of dermatitis. But now she
is taking an oral immune system
suppressant, methotrexate, which
has kept her condition under
control. The only time she ever
stopped dancing was when she
attempted to take a break from
her medication in 2015 to find a
more natural way to control her
condition. When she stopped
taking it her psoriasis came back
“horribly” and she had to spend
three months away from dance.
“This time (away from dance)
allowed me to realise how much
I actually enjoyed dancing rather
than just doing it,” she said.
Gregory said she is grateful the
medication gives her the ability
to do what she wants with her life.

Bid to inform New Brighton voters

NOT MANY suburbs have as
much at stake in this year’s local

New Brighton Business and
Landowners
Association to
get the Oram

Nikki Griffin Brighton has a

He said completing the
construction of the Oram Ave
extension at the same time as big
projects like the New Brighton
hot pools made total sense.
“If they’re starting to advance
some projects that are going to
see the business core move ahead
. . . the two have got to be linked
in some fashion.”
New Brighton Business
and Landowners Association
charwoman Rebecca Tavete said
it would continue to put pressure
on the city council to start work
on the extension and will discuss
how to do this at its meeting on
Thursday next week.
“We’re at a point now where
we’ve done all the consultation
that needs to be done and it’s just
time to get stuff happening.”
The proposal would see Oram
the right people are in power
to drive this growth would be a
priority.
However, too many people are
out of the loop with the political
decision-making process in the
area.
To address this, community
members are planning to start a
campaign to educate residents in
New Brighton and its surrounding
suburbs on all aspects of
October’s local body elections.
Bin Inn New Brighton owner
Nikki Griffin is helping to organise
the campaign and said
it will aim to provide residents
information about who will be
running, their policies and how
they could affect New Brighton.
Mrs Griffin hopes this will also
help educate people who are not
aware of the difference between
the city council and Environment
Canterbury and the roles
the organisations play.
“As a community, we need to
ask these questions. What are
you going to do for us? What is
our vote going to get us? Rather

included in the New Brighton

and other eastern suburbs felt
disconnected from the political
decision-making process.
“There’s certain lobby groups
Given funding for the project
was available, Mr Lonsdale said
it had taken the city council too
long to provide funding for it.
He said the city council had
been working on the master plan
since 2012.
“We’re now in 2019 and nothing
really in that particular commercial
area has been done to
actually activate capital reinvestment.”
Mr Lonsdale said the project
has the potential to bring huge
investment to New Brighton, but
delaying it any longer may put
investors off.
“The Oram Ave extension provides
lots of opportunities for not
only getting a better connection
to the foreshore along Marine Pde
. . . it provides a really great opportunity
for businesses to locate
in there, especially hospitality
or interest groups who, by virtue
of being more organised or being
more vocal, have had a huge say
in shaping the blueprint for the
[Ōtākaro Avon] river corridor
for example. But, we’re still
having residents’ associations or
other groups, which are speaking
on behalf of their community . . .
that have not engaged at all with
their local residents.”
Mrs Griffin said the amount
of on-going work and work still
to do in New Brighton meant it is
important residents are given the
knowledge they need to make
informed decisions that are best
for the area.
Mr Boland said discussions are
under way on the best ways to
provide election information to
residents.
He said the Peoples Republic
of New Brighton Facebook group
would be used, but he wants the
campaign to also reach residents
who are not on social media.
“It’s important for all of us to
actually get out there and door
knock and talk to your neighbours
as well. By doing both
things, I think we’ll get there.”

It was also important the city
council started work on the
extension this year, so it did not
clash with other big projects in
New Brighton, Mr Lonsdale said.
“The hot pools are about to
go in . . . those works are going
to take just over a year. We’ve
got between now and then to do
other work so we’re not interfering
with those projects.”
Mrs Tavete said the Oram Ave
extension would also improve
access to new developments like
the hot pools once they were
finished.
“If we have all these other
initiatives happening . . . we’re
going to need some better traffic
flow. So, the Oram Ave extension
is quite critical for those other
initiatives to be successful.”

Fire rages, homes at risk
Business leader gives back to community
• By Matt Slaughter
REBECCA TAVETE was faced
with a decision two years ago.
She could either continue
running her co-working space
from its premises in the central
city, or take a risk and start a
new space in New Brighton.
The 44-year-old Aranui resident
chose New Brighton and
hasn’t looked back.
Mrs Tavete is the founder of
the ARGO Beach Co-Working
space on Marine Pde and the
chairwoman of the New Brighton
Business and Landowners
Association.
Mrs Tavete filled a number
of managerial roles all over
Christchurch and even worked
for 10 years in Portugal before
taking her work to New
Brighton.
In spite of loving the coastal
lifestyle in Portugal and bringing
her two children Diego, 21,
and Porzia, 17, up there, she said
“there’s no place like home.”
“We have everything there
is to offer I think here in New
Zealand and especially on a
coastal frontage like here in New
Brighton and it really took me to
be living overseas to really appreciate
what I had at my doorstep.”
She said New Brighton had just
as much to offer and had been
LOYAL: Rebecca Tavete started the ARGO Co-working space in New Brighton to give back to
the community that she and her family love so much.
a hub for her since first moving
out to the east as a 13-year-old.
She said her children were
“very staunch patriotic eastsiders”
and “they wouldn’t give
up living here for everything”
and her parents belonged to the
New Brighton Bowling Club.
Starting ARGO in New Brighton
“made total sense” and had
been her way of bringing some
life back into the area that her
and her family loved so much.
“I just started wandering
around Brighton and I came
down to Marine Pde and I
looked up and you could see that
this top floor was empty and it
had no life.”
“Taking the time to wander
around and just take it in, it just
felt really good.”
Argo had since become a
place where businesses, workers
and students from throughout
Christchurch came to experience
working by the seaside, she said.
“It’s creating a nice synergy of
work and community and bringing
a really nice sense of that
work-life balance.”
Mrs Tavete said her goal was
its clients would see New Brighton’s
potential, spend money in
the area and New Brighton’s appeal
would spread as a result.
She said she had always seen
New Brighton’s potential and
through her roles at ARGO and
the New Brighton Business and
Landowners Association she
wanted to give people the opportunity
to see this potential for
themselves.
“You’ve got the beautiful ocean
right in front of you, you’ve got
these amazing palm trees that
line the parade here . . . we’ve got
amazing people that are working
here.”
“I guess we get into automatic
mode as human beings when
we’re in business and just think
the CBD is where we need to be,
but it’s absolutely not.”

platform, which extends around
a large tree.
Each of the 22 logs will contain
one word of a poem by Teoti
Jardine.
The poem would be about
“kaitiakitanga,” which Jardine
said translated to “taking care
of.”
“It is about connecting people
to the place as well as the
memories of the place,” Jardine
said.”
The words will be inscribed on
the log rounds next week.
Ms Ash said Jardine had been
very involved in the Richmond
area after the earthquakes
as kaumatua of the Avon-
Ōtākaro Network.
She said he also blessed the
site before the project to beautify
the Avon River edge began in
September last year.
Richmond Community
Garden co-founder Cathy Allden
said projects like this mean a lot
to the community.
“It is important for Richmond
because so many people enjoy
that walk that goes along the
river loop.”
“If we can improve this
section of the river where
everyone utilises it, and make it
a destination, it will be great for
Richmond, it will be great for the
residents and it will be great for
people’s mental health who are
using that specific space.”
LINWOOD NORTH School has
been renamed Whītau School.
The school held a ceremony to
celebrate the renaming on Friday.
A traditional whaka noa to
welcome the guests was followed
by the gifting of the new name by
Ngai Tahu representative Lynne
Ti Aika.
A Principal’s Gold Award was
also handed out to a pupil from
each of the school’s 11 classes
during the ceremony.
The awards went to pupils who
showcased the school’s values.
Whītau School deputy
principal Amy Collins said the
ceremony was hugely significant
for the school and a great
occasion.
“It was wonderful to see all
students, staff, whānau and our
local and wider community
together in our school hall
celebrating this special occasion.”

Ava Henderson was crowned
champion of the under-16 girls

Ava, 13, won the final round
of the series at Piha.
She came into the round with
the series lead after winning the
second event in Whangamata
and finishing as the runner-up
in the opening round at Mt
Maunganui. With bad weather
marching up the North Island’s
west coast before the final
round, the event was completed
in one big day with solid 1m
waves and light cross-onshore
wind at the south end of Piha.
Ava advanced to the final with
a score of 8.9 in her heat, which
was good enough for second.
In her final ride she took things
to another level, scoring a

New seats
installed at
Linfield Park
• By Gordon Findlater
THE GRASS embankment at
Linfield Park is sporting a new
look ahead of the rugby season.
It is now home to 100 seats from
Lancaster Park which is currently
being demolished.
The seats have been constructed
near the halfway line underneath
the scoreboard on the main
ground at Linfield, opposite the
rugby clubrooms.
“As long as you don’t get that
easterly it’ll be a damn good spot
to watch the footy,” said Linwood
Rugby Club manager Aaron
Flynn.
The seats were purchased more
than 12 months ago by Flynn.
However, the placing of the seats
was put on the back burner until
this summer.
The installation of the seats
was carried out by former
Linwood player Shaun Lyons
and John Norton from Taurus
Construction.
“They had to get some brackets
made up and have concreted them
in – they did it really well,” said
Flynn.
The seats will be in action this
weekend when Linwood’s premier
side play Methven for the Tane
Norton Cup. Linwood will host
Sydenham in their first match of
the premier metro competition on
March 30.

New Brighton gears up
for surf-themed festival
The New Brighton community and its
surfers are keenly anticipating the annual
Duke Festival of Surfing taking place in
New Brighton from March 11-17.
The event was instigated in 2016 to
honour Hawaain surfing legend Duke
Kahanamoku, who had arrived in New
Zealand in 1915 and went surfing at
New Brighton. A replica of his surfboard
was placed on the foreshore by the
Pier & Foreshore Society in 2015 to
commemorate that, with the annual
Duke Festival being launched the
following year.
Society member and event co-founder
Esther Perriam is playing a key role in
organising the 2019 Ray White New
Brighton Duke Festival of Surfing,
which aims to not only raise the profile
of surfing in New Brighton, but also to
lift community spirits and participation
in the eastern suburbs, benefit local
businesses from visitors coming for the
event and raise funds for indoor facilities
at the new hot salt water pool being
developed in New Brighton.
The festival is being launched on March
11 with a function for invited guests,
then on March 14 an art exhibtion,
titled Stoked 2019 – The Art of Surfing
and featuring works by artists and
photographers from Christchurch
and elsewhere, is being held at the
Level 1 Bar.
Several other events throughout the
week will add to the fun and excitement
of the festival. These include free
surfing lessons for 100 primary school
students from four local schools, an art
competition for local school children,
with the theme ‘My perfect Brighton
day’, and a free open air movie night on
Friday, March 15, with Finding Nemo
screening at 6pm and The Endless
Summer at 8pm.
Surf competitions will of course be be
a key feature of the festival, with short
board events for under 12s and under
20s and age group and open long board
events for men and women. These will
be held from March 15-17.
Competitors in the short board
events, which are sanctioned by
Surfing New Zealand and SISA, can
gain calendar points and potential
selection for the New Zealand surfing
team.

exciting surf-themed community

Freshly cooked takeaways
to meet customer demand
For almost a quarter of a century,
Gourmet Seafoods QE2 in Travis Road,
North New Brighton has been providing
delicious, freshly cooked takeaways for
local residents.
Over that time, the range of items has
grown and developed to satisfy changing
customer tastes, says owner Peter, who runs
the business with his wife Helen, and today
they serve much more than the basics they
started with.
In addition to the standard fish and chips,
Gourmet Seafoods offers a selection of
specialty fish, including gurnard, tarakihi,
sole and blue cod, which can be crumbed
or battered. The seafood selection includes
fresh and cooked Bluff oysters in season,
Pacific oysters, scallops and mussels.
Entrée items include mini spring rolls
and corn nuggets, while hamburgers
are another popular choice, with a good
selection on offer.
“People like variety, so we try to give
them that,” says Peter.
He also introduced souvlakis to the
menu, filled with beef, chicken or lamb and
tzatziki sauce. Crispy chicken fillets have
been added to the souvlaki choices, and
Peter says these have proved very popular
with customers.
In fact, their crispy, crunchy batter for
fish and chicken has become a signature
item at Gourmet Seafoods, and is favoured
by many happy customers.
Their chips are hand-made and freshly
cooked every day. Always seeking to
improve their products, Peter and Helen
have changed from frozen to fresh chips, as
they have found that’s what their customers
prefer. They have also introduced glutenfree
items in response to customer demand.
To accompany the delicious hot food,
a wide selection of soft drinks is available
from the chiller.
Dedicated to the business, Peter is
carrying on a family tradition at Gourmet
Seafoods – he is the third generation of
his family to own a fish and chip shop.
His grandfather had a shop in Petone, and
his parents ran one in Wellington, while
his son Ben is a chef and also works parttime
at Gourmet Seafoods, along with staff
member John.
Gourmet Seafoods is located in the
Travis Road shopping centre at 251 Travis
Rd. They are open seven days a week, so
try them next time you fancy some tasty
takeaways and personal service.

How to support
healthy weight loss
One of the big reasons we
gain weight especially as we
get older is our metabolism
slows down. Metabolism is
the process by which our
bodies convert what we eat
and drink into energy. That
energy is what allows our
body to operate. With a slower
metabolism we often feel like
eating more leading to more
weight gain and less energy.
If we try to do more exercise
with a slower metabolism
often this has little benefit
as we feel hungrier and eat
more.
GO HEALTHY NZ have recently released
an advanced new weight management
formula “CAPSI-SLIM” that contains
clinically researched ingredients. The first
new ingredient Capsimax ® has been shown
to support energy production, healthy
metabolism as well as Lipolysis the breakdown
of stored fat for energy. The formula
also contains Hydroxycitric Acid or HCA
from Garcinia cambogia. HCA has been
shown to help control the appetite so we feel
like eating less. HCA also helps manage your
stress levels preventing excessive emotional
eating. As well as this it also helps reduce the
amount of fat being stored in the body but
instead helps burn this stored fat for energy.
Green tea extract is another
nutrient in the formula that
can help activate the central
nervous system, which in
turn increases the body’s
metabolic rate, decreases fat
absorption and is a powerful
antioxidant. The next nutrient
is chromium a trace mineral
that is essential to stabilize the
body’s blood sugar levels but
is often lacking in our diet.
Chromium may help reduce
carbohydrate and sugar
cravings while increasing
lean body mass. It has been
shown to stimulate weight
loss in people with obesity. The last nutrient
iodine is lacking in the New Zealand
diet. Sufficient iodine is essential for the
production of thyroid hormones, which
regulate the metabolic energy of the body.
As well as weight gain iodine deficiency can
lead to diseases and reduced life-span.
The Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s
Health & Natural Therapy are happy to help
you with your weight loss goals. Everyone
is different and we can help you choose the
most suitable supplements for best results.
Come and see us in our new larger
store at 101 Seaview Road, New Brighton

Modern diet leads to illness!
It’s not what you eat but what you absorb
Two Australian Naturopaths Stephen
and Shane noticed at the end of the 20th
century more and more of their patients
were experiencing gut, bowel and digestive
issues that were often leading to more
serious chronic health conditions. Being
Naturopaths they wanted to find what was
going wrong and began extensive research.
What they found was although their clients
were generally eating good food they were
not obtaining all the nutrients required for
good health from this food. Further research
showed one of the main problems was the
digestive system, “it’s not what you eat but
what you absorb.” Another well-known
problem is the soils the crops are grown in
have been depleted of many trace elements
and other nutrients that are known to be
essential for good health and therefore the
crops and food are also depleted. If we do
not obtain all the nutrients we require the
body will compensate to some degree but
a lack of too many nutrients will eventually
lead to health issues.
Based on this they
developed VITAL
GREENS, now called
VITAL ALL-IN-
ONE, a nutrient dense
powdered formula
that provides superior
absorption as well
as comprehensive
nutrition. They
decided on a
powdered formula
that could be made
as a great tasting drink because liquid
nutrition is the easiest way for the body
to absorb nutrients especially if digestive
issues are present. The formula provides
78 vital ingredients that work together in
synergy optimising each other’s absorption
and benefits. Vital Greens contains a
carefully balanced blend of nutritionally
rich greens, vegetables, fruits, minerals,
vitamins, essential fatty acids, plant and
herbal extracts, superfoods, powerful
antioxidants, probiotics, essential amino
acids, digestive enzymes, fibre plus a
uniquely alkalising pea protein. It provides
superior nutrition to a multivitamin and
just about anyone will benefit from it. It is
designed to provide all the nutrients the
body requires for good health. It is also ideal
for those in poor health, those recovering
from injury or sickness, children, athletes,
poor eaters and the elderly. It is also suitable
for people with dietary restrictions and is
gluten, wheat and dairy free. VITAL ALL-
IN-ONE will help remove toxic waste from
the body while supporting all organs. You’ll
often notice more energy and endurance,
better sleep, a more positive mood,
skin problems improving, less sickness,
improved eyesight and overall better more
optimum health.
Further information and how to obtain
the maximum benefits from VITAL ALL-
IN-ONE as well as tastings is available

HOME & HEATING
The
importance
of air quality
Choosing the
right heat pump
for your home
The quality of the air we breathe
affects our health and ability to
perform. We breathe in and out
approximately 20,000 litres of
air every day. It is therefore very
important to ensure good air
quality indoors through adequate
ventilation. Ventilation is the
process of air exchange to provide
the necessary air quality that meets
the needs of the occupants for clean,
fresh air. Low oxygen with high
carbon dioxide causes stuffiness
in the room and occupants can
feel drowsy. Invisible harmful
substances like a high content of
dust and tobacco smoke are harmful
and can cause various diseases. Even
bad smells can cause discomfort
or irritate the nervous system. In
summer, it’s easy to open windows
for cross ventilation, however as
winter approaches, we start to shut
up out houses to trap in the heat and
as a result, air quality can decline.
Ventilation includes both the
exchange of air to the outside as
well as circulation of air within
the building. It is one of the
most important factors for maintaining
acceptable indoor air quality in buildings.
Filtered air supply for summer and filtered
and warmed air in winter creates a healthy
environment in which to live and work. In
case of poor or insufficient air intake from
outside, the oxygen content decreases,
humidity and dustiness levels increase. If
exhaust ventilation is not provided or it is
not effective, polluted air, smells, humidity
and harmful substances are not removed.
To ensure the quality of your air, contact
the experts. Smooth-Air Products can
calculate the required air exchange for
your building requirement.
Smooth-Air offers a wide range
of ventilation equipment, from
air vents to ducting for fans,
for both the commercial and
domestic markets. They have
an extensive range of fans and
ventilation components instore
but they can also provide
innovative solutions tailored to
differing requirements.
You can contact Smooth-Air on
0800 SMOOTH (0800 766684).
Are you struggling with the heat of
Summer or wanting to get organised for
Winter? With the ever changing weather
patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility
of being able to heat and cool which is an
advantage no other appliance can offer. This
represents great value for your investment
as you can use it all year round. The team
at Enviro Master Ltd can help keep you
cool this Summer either at home or work.
Enviro Master supplies, installs and services
all the leading brands including Panasonic,
Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means
our team can show you which system and
brand will best suit your needs.
With new regulations coming in for
Landlords to provide heating in rentals,
now is a great time to beat the 1st of
July deadline. Inadequate heating and
ventilation can lead to mould growth and
dampness in your property, leading to
costlier maintenance and an unhealthy
living environment. Providing a fixed
heater with a higher heat output and lower
running costs, like a heat pump, will enable
your tenants to heat the area effectively.
It will also discourage them from using
unflued gas heaters which can make a
house damp and mouldy.
It is important to remember, when
selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s
warranty does not cover the installation
and consumers could be responsible for
any repair or damage caused to the system
due to poor installation. Enviro Master’s
five-star installation guarantee ensures
correct installation, and a demonstration
so customers have an understanding on
how it will best meet their needs.
For a free in home consultation, call

REAL ESTATE
An inspiring lifestyle retreat
869 Purau Port Levy Road, Port Levy
By negotiation – realistic vendor
5-6 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 2-3 living rooms | 4 outdoor sheds | 3 bay barn/garage (1.23 hectares approx. Title pending) | Listing Number; 8453
As they say there is no substitute for quality
and this home has that in spades.
North facing, sheltered, and nestled amongst
mature trees and gardens this superbly built
spacious light and airy home of about 337m2
enjoys lovely sea and rural views and is also
very private.
Comprising 5/6 very generous bedrooms,
3 bathrooms including an en suite, and 2/3
living areas. The kitchen and lounge are
enormous, the hallways wide and most of the
rooms open on to covered verandah giving
shelter in Winter and shade in Summer. The
main living area is octagonal in shape and is
huge with a large wood-burner and also opens
onto the verandah and lawn area giving great
indoor outdoor flow.
The farm house style kitchen features plenty
of storage, a Rayburn stove connected to a
wetback and the entire house is centrally
heated with a diesel burner supplying hot
water radiators. Fully insulated throughout
and with double glazed cedar joinery you can
see and feel no expense has been spared on
this build.
The land (1.23 hectares approx. Title pending)
is a mixture of lawns, native plantings a
paddock and 2 very well established orchards.
There are 4 outdoor sheds, a good sized 3 bay
barn/garage, lockable with concrete floor,
3 phase power and toilet and good water
supplies with a spring and deep water bore.
This property gives many options due to its
size, i.e. extended family or Airbnb etc. etc.
and only a 12 minute drive to the Diamond
Harbour ferry giving access to Lyttelton and
the city.
This is the perfect opportunity to have the
lifestyle without having too much to look
after, a chance to be semi self-sufficient and all
this only 45 minutes approx. drive from the
city.
Only approx. 10 years old, to build this now
to this quality would cost well in excess of
the asking price so this is great buying in a
beautiful location.
