Gymnast goes global

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding

EMERGING GYMNAST Anna

Taylor lives her life to a tight

schedule.

When the 17-year-old Halswell

resident is not busy studying with

the aim of passing NCEA with

excellence, she spends the majority

of her time outside of school

training in rhythmic gymnastics.

But a brutal schedule requiring

the Riccarton High School

student to spend 28 hours a week

training, has paid off. The threetime

New Zealand gymnastics

champion has been selected for

the International Gymnastics

Tour. •Turn to page 4

Pier cash

should go

back to

the east

• By Matt Slaughter

CALLS HAVE been made to

make the $2 million saved on

the New Brighton Pier repairs

available for other projects in the

east.

Coastal-Burwood Community

Board chairwoman Kim Money

has asked the city council to

consider it.

Ms Money

was told by the

city council the

$2 million had

gone back into its

capital delivery

programme

for the 2018/19

financial year.

Kim Money

The repairs to all 17 of the pier’s

support columns were completed

for $7.84 million, rather than

the $9.88 million originally

budgeted, a new report shows.

Coastal Ward city

councillor David East said

the savings within the capital

programme could not go towards

other projects.

However, Ms Money said

the city council should

reconsider its stance, starting

with the $2 million saved from

the pier repairs.

THOUSANDS OF people will be

pounding the pavements and roads at the

annual City2Surf on Sunday.

It’s Christchurch’s iconic event, which

The Star has put on for decades.

This year it will be the 45th time the event has been held. It

used to go from the Square out to QE II, but a certain event on

February 22, 2011, changed all of that.

It now goes from Centennial Park and Hansen Park to

Ferrymead.

Each year there is a buzz as thousands gather in the parks

for the challenge that lies ahead – whether it be going as fast

as you can, or simply completing the journey for personal

satisfaction.

On page 7 today, we talk to some of the people taking part.

Bitcoin ice cream store closes

• By Louis Day

NEW ZEALAND’S first ice

cream store to accept Bitcoin

closed on Wednesday.

Charlato in Sumner was

opened by Charlie Kavanagh

when he was 18.

Mr Kavanagh said 10 to 15

people paid using Bitcoin during

the two years the store was open.

“It was definitely worth doing,

a lot of people would see the

poster and have a bit of a laugh.”

Bitcoin is a digital currency

which exists only online and is

one of more than a thousand

“cryptocurrencies.”

It has come with harsh

warnings from investors

and traders worldwide for its

volatility and lack of regulation.

However, Mr Kavanagh said

the precarious nature of the

cryptocurrency did not have

a significant impact on his

business.

“I only had $50 invested

in it so it didn’t really affect

me.”

Mr Kavanagh worked for the

previous owners of the gelato

container and decided to take

over when they closed.

“I was just hanging out with a

few mates, we were going down

to the pub to have a few drinks

and I said I’m going to start an

ice cream business and within

two weeks it was open.”

Mr Kavanagh, who is

currently in the final year of his

commerce degree at Canterbury

University, said he was closing

so he could work towards his

masters in information systems

in Germany.

But he did not rule out a

return to the ice cream industry.

“I would love to return in

the future, probably not in

Christchurch, my dreams

are centred more around

Europe.”

Kavanagh’s ice cream store

Taking on the world

McMaster & Heap

Veterinary practice

A PATIENT WITH A BIG HEART

Meet “Lucy”, a courageous 3 year old Staffy

cross who in the past 6 weeks has overcome

many hurdles, but still has a wee way to go.

I first met Lucy at the end of January as a

second opinion. She had been intermittently

unwell for the past month with swallowing

difficulties, coughing, lethargy , pain and

intermittent extremely high temperatures. A

weird clinical picture. She had short courses

of antibiotics and anti inflamatories but still

appeared painful and lethargic and was

deteriorating.

When I first met Lucy, her painfulness struck

me first. I see many uncomfortable patients,

but Lucy was different. She never verbalized

her pain but she was

incredibly tucked up in

the abdomen, walking

slowly and stilted and her

face wore all the pain. She

was brave and lovely to

treat but it was horrible

for me to see her in that

much pain. She was

admitted for a full blood

work up, sufficient pain

medications, intravenous

fluids and xrays..

We got no conclusive

results back from Day 1.

On paper she appeared

healthy but she clearly

wasn’t. Next step was an

ultrasound with Catherine.

Large abdominal lymph nodes measuring up

to 7 cm long were seen dotted throughout.

Catherine wasn’t sure if we may have a

migrating foreign body so it was decided to

open Lucy up. Again no conclusive results

after her exploratory. Kirsty biopsied her

enlarged lymph nodes as a cancerous process

was a possibility. Again we drew blanks as the

lymph node pathology was normal.

Despite our best diagnostic efforts to

find a cause for her unexplained pain and

lethargy, we just had no answers. We were

unsuccessfully managing her pain despite

a myriad of treatment medications. It was

worrying and what was worse was that Lucy

was getting weaker in her hindquarters,

struggling to walk or support her weight.

A contrast CT scan At Pacific Radiology

under sedation was the next diagnostic

tool employed. I was very worried about

spinal cord compression or other diseases

affecting the disc spaces and vertebral bodies.

Interesting findings were seen. Lucy had

large granulomatous masses underneath

a few lumbar vertebrae no doubt causing

compression on her spinal cord, a contributor

to her paralysis. Her vertebral bodies also

looked diseased. Many huge intra-abdominal

lymph nodes were also seen. The scanner

likened it to findings you would see with

Tuberculosis in a person. We also weren’t

expecting her to develop a large pus filled

abscess over her lumbar back that required

surgical draining.

Interestingly Lucy had killed 2 possums a few

months back but after specialized diagnostic

testing for TB on

tissue samples

taken we came up

with blanks. Also

TB hasn’t yet been

isolated in possums

in the Canterbury

area although we

did have her on

TB medication for

several weeks.

As you can see this

case is still providing

challenges for us.

Lucy has since

had more surgery,

ultrasounds, blood

testing and referral

consultations with specialists to try to get a

handle on what caused her pain, CT findings

and paralysis. Our best guess is an inhaled,

migratory Foreign body like a grass seed, that

traveled to beneath her spine somehow. No

other disease process has been found.

The UP side to this story is how Lucy

is handling her immobility and all the

medications she has to consume 2-3 times

daily. She is a terrific dog that has just adapted

to life without walking. She has a ravenous

appetite, appears pain free and happier now

and even wags her tail and twitches and

withdraws her hindlegs. Her improvement is

slow but I guess any disease involving spinal

cord injury takes time to heal. She hasn’t given

up and her dedicated owner hasn’t given up

hope either. Margaret has changed her whole

life this past month to give Lucy the chance to

recover – working from home, learning how

to drain a urinary catheter, managing her care

in terms of massage, reiki, getting her into a

wheelchair – not an easy task when you are

dealing with a 30 kg dog! Amazingly Margaret

has managed all her care from home, which

is better than caged hospital care for Lucy at

this stage.

We all love Lucy at the clinic. We often do

our clinical exams and treatments from the

boot of Margarets car to avoid tiring Lucy.

Our nurses have been patient and gentle to

Lucy and Lucy responds positively to us. We

are ALL hoping and praying for a full recovery.

Gardening pays off for Nancy

• By Louis Day

WELL-KNOWN Sumner

identity Nancy Meherne came

away with one of the top prizes at

the Linwood-Central-Heathcote

Edible Garden Awards.

The Sumner resident of 63

years won the best yield prize

alongside Claire Taylor and

also received a certificate in the

residential house category, with

judges commending her garden’s

plant health and overall quality.

Mrs Meherne, 89, said she

would be out in her garden as

late as 10pm some nights.

“I always go in for the news

and then go back out again. I can

get my whole meal in my garden

– I don’t need to go to the shops,”

she said.

When Mrs Meherne is not

tending to her potatoes, carrots,

parsnips, spinach, silverbeet,

peppers, capsicums, cucumbers,

zucchinis, pumpkins, radishes or

lettuce, she is catching waves at

Sumner beach.

“I don’t know how to stand up

but I know how to catch a wave.

I can go in further than most

people.”

Mrs Meherne said she fell in

love with Sumner and its beach

the moment she laid eyes on it.

“When I first moved to

Christchurch I did not know

anyone, so one day I caught the

tram to Sumner and it was the

most wonderful place, the sight

of the beach was breathtaking

and still is.”

Mrs Meherne taught music at

Sumner School for many years

and continued to give lessons

at the school following her

retirement up until recently.

Mrs Meherne now teaches

piano to pupils out of her home.

Her dedication to teaching

music led to the school’s music

room being named after her.

Sumner School music teacher

Robyn Lean, who was taught by

Mrs Meherne in the 1980s, said

she put her life and soul into

teaching music.

“She is just a really

extraordinary person, she has

been very passionate and good at

instilling that same passion on to

her students. You just really felt

like you were part of her family

as a student,” she said.

Who’s taking part in the

It’s the 45th anniversary

of the Star Media

City2Surf. Reporter

Anan Zaki spoke to

some of the participants

aiming to be at the start

line on Sunday

Aaron Cooper, 43

Mr Cooper is set to take part

in his first City2Surf and will do

the 14km race.

“I just want to keep fit and test

the legs on running the distance.”

Mr Cooper plans to run a

half marathon

(21km) – which

is on his bucket

list – and

believes this is a

step towards the

goal.

“It’s the

Aaron Cooper

first time I’m

running 14km.

I’m a surfer,

I’m not really a runner. I used

to play rugby until I was 21 . .

. and, yeah, it [running] is just

something I’ve always wanted to

do,” he said.

Mr Cooper’s wife often takes

part in multi-sport events but

she will greet him at the finish

line as the couple have two young

children.

“When she gets fit, we’ll

definitely be doing other races as

a team,” he said.

David Clark,

29

Taking part in

the 14km event,

Mr Clark is

looking for a new

challenge. It will

be his second

David Clark time entering the

City2Surf.

“It’s just a wee challenge to just

test myself for a bit of fitness,” he

said.

“[The first time] was good. I

want to try something further, I

did the 6km [last year] and want

to try the 14km.”

He has been training hard

for the event and says he will be

ready for the race on March 24.

NEWBIE: Hailey McConchie will be running in her first

City2Surf this year.

“Currently I’m doing it myself

but we’ll see if my partner does it.

That will be just a wait and see.”

Hailey McConchie, 25

The mother of two used to be

focus on body building, but since

having her second child last year,

she’s switched to running.

It will be her first City2Surf.

“I’ve never been a runner.

People who tend to lift weight do

not like cardio whatsoever,” Mrs

McConchie said.

To lose weight after pregnancy,

she took up running. “I’ve lost a

lot of my baby weight . . . I started

an eight-week challenge and lost

about 6kg,” she said.

Getting into running was

difficult.

“At first it felt like a long time

to get running, even that first

kilometre. It felt like ages,” Mrs

McConchie said.

She will be taking part in the

6km event. “Every time I see a

race I just enrol myself and just

build myself in it.”

Mrs McConchie has heard

great things about the City2Surf

but couldn’t take part in it last

year as she had just given birth to

her second child a month before

the event. “I’d like to keep my

running up [this year]. It’s not

something I really enjoy but once

I find my rhythm 2-3km in, that’s

when I can see why some people

are addicted to running,” she

said.

Kelly Clements, 46

Mrs Clements

doesn’t live

far from the

start line near

Centennial Park.

She says the

City2Surf is a

good excuse to

Kelly

Clements

not pay for a gym

membership.

“It’s just my

one thing that makes me head

out and train each year. It’s

not too far being only 14km.

Rather than paying for a gym

membership, I sign up and it

makes me run,” Mrs Clements

said.

This will be her fourth

consecutive City2Surf. “A friend

got me into running and it was

that whole give it a go, it’s a

reasonably flat course and lots of

fun,” she said.

Kristyn Ferry and Simon

Bradshaw

Simon Bradshaw, 30

Mr Bradshaw was

convinced by his partner

Kristyn Ferry to take part in

the 14km event.

“She did it last year and

enjoyed it and this year she’s

going to do it again. She said

she’d like me to do it with her

and I said why not.”

“She’s doing it more for a

social, keep fit aspect than it is for

a competitive aspect. So I’ve got

the same kind of idea to be doing

it to keep fit and healthy rather

than making the top 10,” he said.

Mr Bradshaw trains most days.

He has never entered a running

event before.

“I think I’ll be a bit nervous on

the day [of the race]. Just nervous

trying to get to the end,” Mr

Bradshaw said.

Seamus Tredinnick, 30

Running in the 6km event, Mr

Tredinnick, who is a keen sailor,

will be returning

to the event

for the second

consecutive year.

“My wife [Emily]

is a keen runner

and has done a

few marathons

so she’ll be doing

the 14km run,”

he said.

“Basically, at

Seamus

Tredinnick

least if I sign up for an event, it

gives me a bit of motivation to

work towards to getting me out

and running, which is probably a

good thing,” Mr Tredinnick said.

“When you’ve got a peg in

the ground it’s easier to move

towards that goal,” he said.

Mr Tredinnick’s goal is to

finish the event.

Soozie Bragg.

Houses and roading in the east

suffered major damage in the

2010 and 2011 earthquakes and

residents clogged roads when a

tsunami warning forced them to

evacuate after the 2016 Kaikoura

earthquake.

Mrs Herd said her home had

been burgled on Boxing Day,

which had inspired her to do

something to make the east safer.

She said the collective message

delivered by all of the organisations

was the importance of residents

knowing their neighbours

and the tools available to keep

themselves and others safe from

crime and natural threats out of

their control.

“After you get burgled or have

a tragedy, it forces you to think

about these things,” she said.

“The core message was to take

some personal responsibility for

your own safety and see what

you can do as a person and also

a member of the community to

make some changes.”

Constable Nathan Wilson said

the first piece of advice was how

people could protect themselves

against crime before it occurred.

“We were targeting on burglaries

and ensuring everything’s all

locked and secure all of the time.

It’s even getting to the point

where during the day if you’re

going out to the back of your

property to do some gardening,

make sure that your front door is

all locked. With alarms, if you’ve

got them, make sure they’re

being used. A big one is getting

to know your neighbours . . . If

you’re going away, touch base

with your neighbours and let

them know.”

Constable Wilson said the

best ways to help police when

crime did occur was the next big

topic of conversation. If people

felt they were not in immediate

danger, it was still important to

report any suspicious behaviour,

he said.

“When people don’t report

things, we don’t know about it

and we can’t get out there to try

and prevent it from happening.”

City council head

of Civil Defence and

emergency management

Rob Orchard said

information was given on

how people could prepare

themselves for disasters,

particularly tsunamis,

which had posed a risk to

the beach suburbs in the east in

the past.

“On display were the current

tsunami evacuation zones . . .

and where they could find the

tsunami evacuation zones.”

Bruce Irvine

“Emergencies can be anything

from not being able to get home,

to the impacts of natural hazards

like earthquakes, storms, or

tsunamis. It’s really important

that we get prepared for such

disruptions.”

Fire and Emergency New

Zealand senior fire

risk manager Bruce

Irvine said fire posed an

extreme risk along the

beach front.

“Our topic of discussion

was related to

occupied properties and

having an escape plan

with an identified meeting

place for when your smoke

alarm activates.”

Ensuring the safety of the high

number of vacant and insecure

houses in the east was also emphasised,

Mr Irvine said.

“A request has gone out to

SAFE: The importance

of residents in the

east knowing their

neighbours, reporting

crime and preparing

themselves for natural

disasters, like the

evacuations after the

Kaikoura earthquake

in 2016, was the

key advice given by

emergency services

and community groups

during the Save Our

Suburbs Expo.

property owners to secure their

asset with improved fencing,

other security measures

including boarding of broken

windows, along with managing

the vegetation on the properties

better to reduce the potential fire

risk.”

Mrs Herd said the Save Our

Suburbs Expo was just one of the

many steps needed to make the

east. She said she was already

in conversations about the

possibility of the expo becoming

an annual event.

In February, the Ministry of

Civil Defence and Emergency

Management community

resilience coordinators

participated in the South

Brighton preparedness day.

They talked to residents about

preparedness, in particular

about tsunamis and emergency

mobility alerts.

Cashmere coach heads to Lincoln

• By Jacob Page

FORMER CASHMERE High

School basketball coach Tyla

Harrison-Hunt will have some

familiar faces with him as he

heads to Lincoln University.

The 27-year-old former

Aranui academy and Otago

representative, spent last year as

an assistant with South Island

secondary school champions

Cashmere High. He has lured

South Island

finals and

Thomson

Trophy MVP

Nic Wenmoth

to his team, as

well as former

Tyla Harrison-

Hunt

High School

captain Ihaia

Kendrew.

“Making the

switch for this year is the hardest

decision I could have made,” he

said. “Lincoln approached me

with this opportunity and it was

a case of going with my head or

my heart . . . And I went with

my head.” He said it was great to

have a couple of familiar faces in

Wenmoth and Kendrew on his

squad.

“I want them both to be solid

contributors in whatever role I

give them, ” he said.

Nic is a scorer while Ihaia is an

all-round point guard.

“Whenever you have rookies

on the floor, I just want them to

be solid defenders.”

He said Kendrew’s experience

playing premier basketball and

Wenmoth’s “gritty nature”

would serve them well.

Though there would be more

expectations at Lincoln than

there was at Cashmere, he said

the squad has a youthful look.

“We are a small squad and

quite young,” Harrison-Hunt

said.

“Everyone but one player is

also in the under-23 squad.”

He said with a young squad,

he believes he’ll have to go

on the adventure with the

team as opposed to being a

disciplinarian.

“If anything I’ll need to be a

big brother more than that large

coaching figure,” he said.

“We are a guard-heavy team

but that’s okay because I used

to play guard and the systems

“My gameplan will be to shoot

He said he would like to make

and make an impact on the

“I’d like to beat Auckland

Support grows

for ship levy to

help seafarers

A PETITION calling for a levy to

support the welfare of seafarers has

received more than 150 signatures.

The petition was started by

newly-appointed Banks Peninsula

Community Board deputy

chairman Tyrone Fields.

The intent is to “build a large

register of local support asking

that the NZ Government levy

ships docking in NZ ports to

fund seafarer welfare centres, as

suggested by the Maritime Labour

Convention.”

Mr Fields has been doorknocking

and circulating the

petition throughout shops in an

attempt to raise awareness.

“It is amazing how many people

do not know about it,” he said.

Maritime NZ recently stopped

a Taiwanese bulk-carrier in

Lyttelton Harbour, which was on

its way to Panama, after it was

revealed the crew members were

not being paid properly.

The bulk-carrier was not allowed

to leave Lyttelton until the operator

paid the crew four months wages.

HEALTH & AWARENESS

Hip pain: Do I have arthritis or

could it be mainly my muscles?

The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham

sees clients with a range of symptoms but

many of their middle-aged and senior

clients visit complaining of pain in one or

both hips.

Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests

that a major part of the pain could be due

to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.

“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason

for the pain may be the muscles around

the joint,” she explains. Alternatively, a

back muscle could also be the cause, as

shown in the image.

Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year

old client with severe arthritis who walked

with a stick, told her, “I will end up in

a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight

through my right leg due to pain in my hip

and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she

was walking with her stick but without the

severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was

one of the factors that made her muscles

spasm but the other was that older people

move less and the flexed position the hip

is in when we sit is particularly bad for

the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that

although the client was 89 and could have

been “given up on” or told to live with the

pain, she made a difference to her health

Hip muscle that causes hip pain

(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)

and wellbeing.

At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques

(massage and triggerpoint deactivation

techniques) are used to release the muscles.

The client also gets a home exercise

program designed to mobilize and stretch

the hip, strengthen the important core

muscles and increase general strength and

balance. They teach a movement sequence

that stretches the hip in all directions

whilst the client is able to lie safely on their

bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients.

In many cases having the muscles

released and being taught how to maintain

it, is enough to stay on top of the problem.

If severe arthritis is the underlying cause,

some maintenance therapy may be

necessary, but that is often more affordable

and, for older patients, better tolerated than

surgery. In very few treatments the client

not, without financial commitment.

and there is ample parking. To enquire

FOCUS ON HEALTH

More health benefits

with Advanced

Omega-3-PC Fish Oil

It is well known how important omega-3

fatty acids are to good health. It is estimated

most people don’t even get a third of the

recommended omega-3 fatty acids on

a weekly basis. Countries with a higher

amounts of omega-3 in the diet are known

to have lower cardiovascular disease and

in many cases better overall health. Recent

research has shown inflammation to be a

big part of disease and the ageing process.

Fish oil can help reduce inflammation by

providing essential fatty acids required by

the body to heal itself and maintain good

health. Fish oil supplements have become

hugely popular for this reason. Until now

most fish oil only contained omega-3 fatty

acids in triglyceride form. Fish however

naturally contain omega-3 in

triglyceride and phospholipid

form but until recently the

phospholipid form was lost due to

the manufacturing process.

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-

3-PC sets new standards in

fish oil as it contains omega-3

attached to both triglycerides and

phospholipids. Studies have shown

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC to

be far better absorbed leading to

increased levels of vital omega-3

fatty acids in the organs thru giving

the potential for more health benefits.

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-3-PC is

produced from fresh wild deep sea cold

water fish using a new advanced and more

natural cold extraction process that better

preserves the natural nutrient profile found

in fish. It is manufactured to high GMP

standards and is molecularly distilled to

remove any containments, toxins and

heavy metals like mercury.

Further information on this

revolutionary new fish oil and how it may

benefit you is available from the Natural

Health Advisers, at Marshall’s Health &

Natural Therapy, 101 Seaview Road, New

Brighton, Phone: 388-5757. We are always

happy to help!

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 call

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

NOT all FISH OIl IS CreaTed eQUal!

ONLY GO OMEGA-PC retains the natural Phospholipids that have been shown to be so beneficial for Good

Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used!

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC SETS NEW STANDARDS IN FISH OIL!

Omega-3 fish oil normally contains the vital Omega-3 fatty acids in a triglyceride form. Fish however naturally

contain Omega-3 in a triglyceride & phospholipid form but until recently the phospholipid form was lost due to the

manufacturing process. GO OMEGA-PC is produced using a new more natural cold extraction process that better

preserves the natural nutrient profile found in fish. Studies show GO OMEGA-PC offers superior absorption with

increased omega-3 fatty acids in organs giving the potential for more health benefits.

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC OFFERS:

• Superior absorption of vital Omega-3, as

shown in research

• Advanced new cold extraction better

preserves the natural nutrient profile

found in fish

• Naturally contains phospholipids to

support cellular health

• Contains vitamin D3 to support immune,

bone & cardiovascular health

• Supports cardiovascular health - Countries with

a higher Omega-3 intake have much lower rates

of heart disease

• Supports blood circulation, healthy cholesterol &

healthy blood pressure

• Supports joint health, joint mobility & repair

• Supports overall health & wellbeing

• Natural anti-inflammatory - can help reduce pain

HOME & HEATING

The facts about

Home

Ventilation

Balanced Pressure

vs Positive Pressure

Choosing the

right heat pump

for your home

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

Enviro Master on 366 0525 or visit our

showroom at 41A Shakespeare Rd,

Waltham, Christchurch.

Under the New Zealand Building Code,

all buildings, including residential, need

to be suitably ventilated, either with

opening windows or forced ventilation.

Clause G4.1 states: “The objective of this

provision is to safeguard people from

illness or loss of amenity due to lack of

fresh air.” There are many benefits to forced,

or mechanical, ventilation over opening

windows, including warmth, security,

reduction of outside noises and reduction

of condensation.

Traditional domestic ventilation systems

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in

from outside via the roof space and force

the stale air out through gaps around

windows and doors. The incoming air

from these systems has to be heated or

cooled to keep the house warm in winter or

cool in summer.

The Smooth-Air HEX390 is a ‘balanced

pressure’ system. It extracts air from the

house and at the same time brings in fresh

air. These two streams of air pass through

a heat exchanger, which warms incoming

air in winter and cools in summer if air

conditioning is being used. This means that

up to 80% of the energy which would be

wasted using a traditional positive pressure

system is recovered, resulting in significant

energy savings and therefore lower heating

or cooling costs.

Until recently, balanced pressure

ventilation systems have been considerably

more expensive than traditional positive

pressure systems. However, with Smooth-

Air’s unique manufacturing capabilities, a

HEX390 balanced pressure system can be

installed for a similar price as a traditional

positive pressure system.

REAL ESTATE

An elevation sensation

52 Morgans Valley, Heathcote

Auction: Thursday, 21 March 2019 Unless Sold Prior

4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 living rooms | 2 car-garage | 2 off-street parks | Listing Number: SM0170

Considerably sized and displaying modern

finishes this impeccably styled home rises

above the rest and offers unparalleled views

from the highest position in Morgans Valley.

The sizeable 2717m 2 site and its favourable

microclimate location deliver outstanding

peace and serenity with the exceptional

outlook stretching from the hillside across to

the city and out to the Southern Alps.

Drawing on the contemporary aesthetic

of the exterior, the interior of the home is

streamlined and modern, with an exquisite

kitchen and expansive open plan living area

found at its heart.

Granite benchtops, an entertainer’s oven and

a breakfast bar ensure the kitchen is equally

practical and eye-pleasing while a second

lounge provides an alternative living area and

contributes great flexibility for families.

Tremendous gallery windows drench

the home in natural light and capture the

captivating vista, and when the sun is shining,

you can soak up this scene and the sunshine

from the balcony or private outdoor setting.

Arranged over three floors and hosting a

total of four bedrooms and two bathrooms, the

upper level is naturally devoted to the master

suite which features a walk-in wardrobe and

ensuite.

Also forming part of the floor plan is a

separate laundry, an internal access garage

with storage and two heat pumps which offer

comfort and convenience.

Situated in the calming environment of

Heathcote Valley by Heathcote Valley school,

it’s an easy drive from Lyttelton Port and

various coastal suburbs, and the CBD is less

than 20 minutes’ drive away. This property

also provides a large back section which is

a blank canvas for growing fruit trees or for

those garden lovers wishing to potter away.

The vendors are firmly committed to selling,

and their immaculately presented home is

destined for a change of ownership.

Current GV: $870,000.

Auction date: Thursday 21 March 12:00pm

(Grenadier House, 98 Moorhouse Ave) Unless

Sold Prior

Open Homes: Wednesday 13 March

5:00pm - 6:00pm, Saturday 16 March 11:00am
