Association issues stern<br />
reminder to fly-tippers<br />
• By Bea Gooding<br />
DON’T BE a tosser.<br />
That’s the message the Richmond<br />
Residents and Business<br />
Association is giving to “low<br />
lives” who have used their community<br />
as a rubbish dumping<br />
ground in the past decade.<br />
It was why members resorted<br />
to producing their own warning<br />
signs reminding people to stop<br />
dumping piles of household<br />
trash, including unwanted<br />
furniture.<br />
And so far it has worked in<br />
spite of repeated requests to the<br />
city council to enforce fly-tippers<br />
by installing crime prevention<br />
cameras in areas by the Avon<br />
River.<br />
The area is used by many<br />
who love to take walks near the<br />
former red zone.<br />
“It’s really a deterrent, we have<br />
seen a decrease [in dumping] but<br />
not completely,” said association<br />
chairwoman Vicki Brown.<br />
“We designed and commissioned<br />
these signs to deter<br />
people from fly-tipping in our<br />
area, as well as so close to our<br />
waterways. It was getting excessive.<br />

WARNING: A stern but humourous reminder at the corner of Swanns Rd and River Rd for people to stop dumping<br />
rubbish in Richmond and other areas near the former red zone. <br />

High school band vies for<br />
Rockquest national title<br />
A FIVE-PIECE R&B band from<br />
Shirley Boys’ High School has<br />
stood out from more than 750<br />
musical acts for a chance to snag<br />
the Smokefreerockquest national<br />
title.<br />
After winning the regional<br />
finals in May, the Single Malt<br />
band was invited to apply for a<br />
spot to compete at the national<br />
final in Auckland next month.<br />
Comprising of Cooper Gibb-<br />
Faumuina, Ryan Diggs, Jed<br />
Rimmer, Robin McGregor and<br />
Javaan Gribben, the students<br />
have been selected by judges<br />
to join the top 10 school bands<br />
across the country based on<br />
their video submission.<br />
Single Malt is one of two<br />
Christchurch bands to perform<br />
at the finals, with hard-rock<br />
band Kenring of Middleton<br />
Grange School also making the<br />
cut.<br />
Judge Ash Wallace said she<br />
was incredibly impressed with<br />
the top acts this year.<br />
Judges had to consider 30 acts<br />
that made the last stage of selection<br />
for a chance to be chosen to<br />
compete at nationals<br />
CHANCE: Shirley Boys’ High School students and Single Malt band members Cooper<br />
Gibb-Faumuina, Ryan Diggs, Jed Rimmer, Robin McGregor and Javaan Gribben were<br />
chosen to compete at the Smokefreerockquest national finals. <br />
“There was always going to be<br />
a unique energy and enthusiasm<br />
this year after such a hard year<br />
for the music community in<br />
2020,” she said.<br />
“The top 30 this year, all of<br />
them, submitted videos that were<br />
of an incredibly high standard.<br />
All the acts had written awesome<br />
songs, and were obviously having<br />
so much fun performing and<br />
sharing their craft.<br />
“That is what music is all<br />
about so it has just been such a<br />
thrill to see that.”<br />
The top 10 includes seven<br />
bands and three solo-duo acts.<br />
In its 34th year,<br />
Smokefreerockquest is<br />
recognised as a launching pad<br />
for many great Kiwi musicians,<br />
including Marlon Williams,<br />
Broods, Kimbra and Alien<br />
Weaponry.<br />
Call to keep<br />
70km/h<br />
speed limit<br />
• By Samantha Mythen<br />
LINWOOD-Central-Heathcote<br />
Community Board member<br />
Darrell Latham wants the city<br />
council to keep Humphreys Drive<br />
at 70km/h.<br />
He is concerned the proposed<br />
speed reduction will increase<br />
commuter times for motorists<br />
driving into the city.<br />
“Given the recent speed reductions<br />
from 50km/h to 30km/h<br />
through the Woolston Village,<br />
transit times for residents commuting<br />
to the city are likely to<br />
increase,” he said.<br />
“The route via Humphreys<br />
Drive provides an alternative and<br />
quicker option for many coastal<br />
residents.”<br />
The city council is proposing<br />
to reduce the current 70km/h<br />
speed to 60km/h in an effort to<br />
make it safer for both cyclists and<br />
motorists who share the road.<br />
City council transport<br />
operations manager Steffan<br />
Thomas said the speed limit<br />
reduction would also “better<br />
reflect the safe and appropriate<br />
speed recommended by current<br />
speed management guidance<br />
from Waka Kotahi New Zealand<br />
Transport Agency.”<br />

School Update<br />
Manukura Kōrero<br />
He kākano ahau i ruia mai i Rangiātea<br />
I am a seed which was sewn in the heavens of Rangiatea<br />
Kia Ora Koutou Katoa, ngā mihinui ki te whānau o Haeata.<br />
The greatest gift we have as a community is our tamariki,<br />
because our tamariki are our past, our present and our<br />
future. As a community we must ensure that above all<br />
things our tamariki and rangatahi are<br />
always our first priority.<br />
Another gift Aranui whānau have is<br />
Haeata. A gift given and deserved to<br />
ensure that tamariki and rangatahi in the<br />
East have access to quality education<br />
framed by innovative ako/teaching and<br />
learning and supported by one of the<br />
most sophisticated modern learning<br />
environments in the country.<br />
There are some who attempt to describe<br />
Haeata’s building design as ‘nothing<br />
more than a ‘giant barn.’ Nothing could<br />
be further from the truth and I need to<br />
make clear here that you as whānau can<br />
be assured that our learning environment<br />
caters for the best in innovative curriculum<br />
delivery and design. With the introduction<br />
of He Korowai manaaki, our ‘better<br />
behaviour for learning’ strategy, our tamariki and rangatahi<br />
can now focus on their core business - the business of<br />
quality ako experiences.<br />
Our next wero is to raise attendance rates for all ākonga.<br />
Our tamariki and rangatahi, like those around the motu,<br />
sometimes find it hard to engage. So much that is<br />
challenging for them lies outside the kura gate, and outside<br />
our control. On-line bullying, social media overload,<br />
unhealthy ‘friendships’ and a newly<br />
emerging ‘apocalypse anxiety,’ around<br />
issues to do with climate change burden<br />
ākonga unnecessarily.<br />
We need to free ākonga from these<br />
constraints and let them be kids. While<br />
they might demand to be treated like<br />
adults, theirs is not yet an adult world.<br />
Right now they don’t need to worry<br />
about paying the power, the phone, the<br />
food, the rent or the mortgage - they<br />
have years ahead of them to do that.<br />
What they do need to do is grow - in<br />
a nurturing and safe environment - at<br />
home and at kura.<br />
So, as their whānau, at home and at kura,<br />
let’s commit to letting them be kids for as<br />
long as they can be, and to ensuring they<br />
get to enjoy their school years; because some would say<br />
our school days are the best days of our lives.<br />
Let’s make it so for all of our tamariki and rangatahi!<br />
Kia kaha, kia toa, kia manawanui.<br />
Arohanui<br />
Whaea Peggy<br />
Recycle a Device<br />
Kick Off Haeata <strong>2021</strong><br />
Recycle a Device started<br />
a programme at Haeata<br />
at the end of Term 2 that<br />
we are very excited to<br />
share with you!<br />
This was a very important<br />
door that has been<br />
opened today for some<br />
of our ākonga and for<br />
our kura. Providing an<br />
experience of working<br />
within an IT field for our<br />
ākonga is something that<br />
we are so happy to be<br />
achieving, in partnership<br />
with Digital Futures<br />
Aotearoa.<br />
Our ākonga got an opportunity to see how a laptop works,<br />
and how to pull them apart and put them back together. This<br />
programme will continue throughout lunchtimes as our ākonga<br />
get sent more and more devices to recycle and repair. These<br />
devices can then be used at Haeata or be sent to whānau who<br />
need them. What an exciting initiative for our ākonga to be a<br />
part of to both learn and give back to the community.<br />
Te Mātāpuna Mātātahi | Children’s University<br />
Te Mātāpuna Mātātahi | Children’s University aims to raise young<br />
people’s aspirations for higher education and encourage lifelong<br />
learning. The University of Canterbury and Lincoln University are<br />
working in partnership to deliver the programme, which is the first of<br />
its kind in New Zealand.<br />
They fill the passport with hours<br />
of learning or volunteering<br />
outside the school classroom.<br />
The passport is stamped by<br />
registered Learning Destinations<br />
or volunteering organisations.<br />
Once 30 hours of learning or volunteering are reached, students<br />
are invited to attend a graduation ceremony to celebrate their<br />
achievements.<br />
We were so excited to see the success in 2020, that this year we have<br />
managed to get 40 spots for <strong>2021</strong>. This is an exciting opportunity for<br />
our ākonga to experience success in <strong>2021</strong>!<br />
At the end of term 2 we had a trip to Lincoln University. A day of<br />
new experiences into university life.<br />
• Looking after animals and the impact on agriculture and farming -<br />
all about sheep 101.<br />
• What makes a plane?<br />
• Activity: Ocean Science, conservation. What happens to plastics in the sea?<br />
• Soil Food, Web/Venomous Spiders: had the chance to speak to NZ’s experts.<br />
Such a great experience for our ākonga to see what a university is all about!<br />
We also gained 3 hours towards our November graduation.<br />

New mural to power up the red zone<br />
A VIBRANT new road mural<br />
is brightening up mid-winter<br />
days in the former red zone,<br />
with the artist hoping it will help<br />
encourage people to explore the<br />
space.<br />
‘Crossings’ by New Brighton<br />
artist Nathan Ingram, also<br />
known as Dr Suits, is an abstract<br />
artwork painted on Burwood’s<br />
Corserland St.<br />
The street leads through<br />
a range of public activities<br />
facilitated by landowners<br />
Toitū Te Whenua LINZ and<br />
leaseholders Life in Vacant<br />
Spaces.<br />
The mural features geometric<br />
shapes that play on the way roads<br />
remain in the red zone in spite<br />
of the absence of the houses they<br />
once served.<br />
A collaboration between Dr<br />
Suits and arts facilitators Watch<br />
this Space, it is one of a series<br />
of creative additions to a ninehectare<br />
area known as East x<br />
East.<br />
“It heightens the impact of<br />
the road markings to a more<br />
purely aesthetic level, while<br />
also encouraging the viewer to<br />
enter the work and play across<br />
its shapes and lines,” said Watch<br />
this Space’s Dr Reuben Woods.<br />
“It also plays on the natural<br />
environment by aligning with<br />
REIMAGINED: New Brighton artist Nathan Ingram has painted a mural in the former red<br />
zone that complements other artwork encouraging people to play games in the area.<br />
the shadows cast by nearby<br />
power poles.”<br />
The mural is complemented<br />
by another 80s-inspired artwork<br />
by local artists Porta and<br />
Bols – the latest addition to<br />
their ‘Power Up!’ interactive<br />
installation.<br />
Painted onto a shipping<br />
container, the new artwork uses<br />
a pixelated style reminiscent of<br />
a video game screen, inviting<br />
people to play the nearby ‘Power<br />
Up!’ treasure hunt game.<br />
‘Power Up!’ includes retro<br />
arcade game rewards – such as<br />
coins, potions, treasure chests<br />
and swords – that are distributed<br />
around the area for people to<br />
seek out and power up.<br />
“The game not only adds to the<br />
idea of playing in the red zone,<br />
but also draws on the history<br />
of the area as a site for family<br />
homes where children grew up<br />
playing,” said Dr Woods.<br />
All the artworks and games<br />
ultimately aim to encourage<br />
people to explore and reimagine<br />
the area.<br />
Said Dr Woods: “The red<br />
zone is loaded with associative<br />
meanings and memories, but at<br />
the same time needs to speak<br />
of the future and what we can<br />
do with these spaces. Adding<br />
creative interventions is a<br />
good way to encourage<br />
people to think about their<br />
surroundings and how to engage<br />
with [them].”<br />
A grant from the city council’s<br />
Red Zone Transitional Land Use<br />
fund was approved by Te Tira<br />
Kāhikuhiku to help fund the<br />
creation of the new murals.<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />
Problem started 10 years<br />
ago after earthquake<br />
• From page 1<br />
“The council don’t do any enforcement<br />
of fly-tipping and rely<br />
on locals to Snap Send Solve for<br />
disposal of rubbish.”<br />
A city council spokesperson<br />
said the residential red zone team<br />
has spoken with residents about<br />
fly-tipping deterrent options,<br />
including CCTV.<br />
But they said a business<br />
case was needed<br />
to support the install,<br />
repair, maintenance, and<br />
operational costs.<br />
“Occasional fly-tipping<br />
would not trigger this<br />
expense normally,” they<br />
said.<br />
“CCTV was trialled by the<br />
Canterbury Earthquake Recovery<br />
Authority when they managed<br />
the residential red zone, but it<br />
wasn’t cost-effective.”<br />
The joint venture was between<br />
the Riverlution Eco Hub and We<br />
are Richmond – the association’s<br />
official name.<br />
Initially, “normal” looking<br />
signs were installed, but when<br />
they were ignored, the groups<br />
decided to amp it up with signs<br />
that delivered the message loud<br />
and clear.<br />
The improved signs were put<br />
up at several spots across the area<br />
in the last few months. One can<br />
Vicki Brown<br />
be found at the corner of Swanns<br />
and River Rds.<br />
They said the community has<br />
had to put up with the problem<br />
as far back as the February 22,<br />
2011, earthquake when the area<br />
became the residential red zone.<br />
“We have had praised from<br />
the city council parks<br />
department, our community<br />
boards and other<br />
resident’s associations<br />
for pushing forward with<br />
initiatives to better our<br />
community,” said Brown.<br />
The city council<br />
spokesperson said it<br />
was difficult to identify<br />
offenders, especially as the Litter<br />
Act 1979 requires observation<br />
of a person committing an offence<br />
or a reasonable cause for<br />
suspicion.<br />
It is currently working on engaging<br />
with community boards<br />
for help in targeting identified<br />
hot spots and wider community<br />
education.<br />
“This is a national issue that<br />
is known to be on the rise,” they<br />
said.<br />
“Even in cases where there is<br />
something in the dumped contents<br />
that could lead us to who<br />
may have been involved, this is<br />
not sufficient evidence to positively<br />
identify the offender.”<br />
Grant to help more students<br />
get involved in native planting<br />
A CHARITABLE trust that<br />
is working with 16 schools to<br />
populate parts of the former red<br />
zone with native plants is getting<br />
a $61,400 grant to expand its<br />
operation.<br />
The money will come from<br />
the Red Zones Transitional Use<br />
Fund that was set up by the city<br />
council to provide support to<br />
projects and events<br />
Ahead of their longer-term<br />
regeneration, the projects will<br />
help create activity and vibrancy<br />
in the former red zone areas.<br />
Some of the schools involved<br />
include Linwood College, Rawhiti<br />
Primary, St Andrew’s College,<br />
Burnside Primary, Christ’s College,<br />
Avonside Girls’ High School,<br />
Christchurch South Intermediate<br />
and St Margaret’s College.<br />
“The Eco-Action Nursery<br />
Trust is doing an amazing job at<br />
both connecting young people<br />
with the former red zone area<br />
along the Ōtākaro Avon River<br />
Corridor and educating them<br />
about the process for endemic<br />
native revegetation,’’ sustainability<br />
and community resilience<br />
chairwoman and city councillor<br />
Sara Templeton said.<br />
The trust was set up two years<br />
ago.<br />
It collects endemic native plant<br />

with 16 schools across the city, has received a grant, allowing<br />

Wetland and Riccarton Bush,<br />
propagates seedlings and grows<br />
plants at a central nursery at<br />
Christ’s College, using volunteer<br />
school students and supervisors.<br />
It is working with the schools<br />
to help them establish satellite<br />
nurseries, providing start-up kits<br />
of 500 to 1000 plants and all the<br />
equipment they need to successfully<br />
grow them.<br />
Eco-Action Nursery Trust<br />
chairwoman David Newton<br />
said the grant will allow it to get<br />
more schools and young people<br />
involved in the growing and<br />
planting process.<br />
“The native trees and plants that<br />
are being grown by the students<br />
through the nursery programme<br />
provide much-needed food and<br />
habitats for native birds and lizards,<br />
which is another important<br />
focus for us,’’ Newton said.<br />
The trust has a five-year<br />
lease on a parcel of land off<br />
Chimera Cres, in the Ōtākaro<br />
Avon River Corridor which it<br />
has started planting with the<br />
help of volunteers. It also has a<br />
lease on another area of land off<br />
Gayhurst Tce that will be ready<br />
for planting in winter next year.

We’re rolling out<br />
COVID-19 vaccinations<br />
to Aotearoa New Zealand<br />
Everyone aged 60+ can book their vaccination now<br />
New Zealanders aged 60+ can book now at BookMyVaccine.nz or call<br />
0800 28 29 26. If you’re in one of our priority groups (Groups 1, 2 and 3)<br />
and haven’t been vaccinated, don’t worry, you can still make your booking.<br />
We’re rolling out Group 4 in age bands<br />
Everyone in Aotearoa New Zealand will be able to get the vaccine – it’s free and there’s enough vaccine for everyone.<br />
With more than 2.5 million people aged under 65, to make the process flow smoothly, we’re breaking it down by age bands.<br />
We’re starting with the oldest and working our way down to the youngest.<br />
Important dates<br />
28 July Everyone 60+ Can book now<br />
11 <strong>August</strong> Everyone 55+ Bookings open<br />
Bookings will open soon to the rest of Aotearoa in age bands,<br />
from oldest to youngest. Remember, once you’re eligible to be<br />
vaccinated, you can book at any time. There’s no cut off.<br />
60 +<br />
55 + 45 + 35 + 16 +<br />
When it’s your time to book a vaccination<br />
Step 1: Receiving an invitation<br />
When you’re eligible, you’ll receive a letter inviting you to book<br />
at BookMyVaccine.nz. We’ll follow up with an email and text.<br />
Step 2: Make your booking<br />
Once you’ve received your invitation, or when your age band is<br />
open, go to BookMyVaccine.nz to book your appointments.<br />
If you’re unable to book online, you can ring the COVID Vaccination<br />
Healthline on 0800 28 29 26 (8am to 8pm, 7 days). We’ll make the<br />
booking for you and answer any questions. Interpreters are available<br />
if you need them.<br />
You can expect to have your first vaccination six to eight weeks after<br />
you make your booking. Depending on where and when you’d like to<br />
be vaccinated, you might find an appointment earlier. You’ll need<br />
to leave at least three weeks between your first and second doses.<br />
Step 3: Get your vaccination<br />
We’ll send a reminder the day before each appointment. It’s very<br />
important to get two doses of the vaccine – this will give you the<br />
best protection.<br />
Other ways to get vaccinated<br />
There are other ways to be vaccinated, including workplace<br />
vaccinations and other vaccination events around the country.<br />
In many remote rural communities, we will vaccinate all age groups<br />
at the same time.<br />
Many GPs are also providing COVID-19 vaccinations and are taking<br />
bookings directly. To find out if your GP is offering this service,<br />
visit healthpoint.co.nz/covid-19-vaccination<br />
The stronger our immunity, the greater our possibilities.<br />

New Brighton<br />
A local reflects on the<br />
pleasures of New Brighton<br />
It has been reported that one of the great<br />
pleasures of living in New Brighton, is getting<br />
out on the weekends or after work and selecting<br />
one of the many options available in order to<br />
relax and unwind.<br />
Commonly known activities include the<br />
beach, library, pier, and the new hot pools<br />
which each showcase the prominent central<br />
area. Less known activities include cycle rides.<br />
One of them being the ride along the stretch of<br />
beach between Southshore north to Waimairi.<br />
To bike along its length is a stunning<br />
experience. It is a reminder of why the coastal<br />
area is referred to as an amazing place. Starting<br />
off from Southshore and passing the almost<br />
completed very impressive New Brighton surf<br />
club under a blue sky and calm conditions, it is<br />
quickly evident how much the beach is used in<br />
the height of winter.<br />
Hundreds of people are walking or running<br />
along the beach and dunes or cycling along<br />
the coastal track as they express their delight.<br />
Pedalling northwards along the flat wide beach,<br />
the landscape changes where storms have eaten<br />
into the sand banks and created mini cliff faces,<br />
and the sun-lit landmark buildings along the<br />
way act as a guide posts.<br />
Other landmarks include the North Brighton<br />
Community centre, the iconic North Beach,<br />
Waimairi and Spencer Park surf clubs.<br />
Scattered across areas are children on<br />
ponies, wind surfers, colourful kites, and<br />
powered hang gliders. Nearing the river<br />
mouth, the amount of woody debris increases<br />
along the sand dune fringe as piles line the<br />
banks of the Waimakariri River which have<br />
resulted from the recent flood surge.<br />
The 18km ride starting along the Southshore<br />
spit displays white pristine seascape and is a<br />
great winter activity to explore as one of many<br />
pleasures of New Brighton.<br />
seaside treasures<br />

RD Petroleum<br />
this winter<br />
RD Petroleum (RDP) is a familiar sight<br />
for farm and rural residents around the<br />
Canterbury region, however now days urban<br />
residents also enjoy the same excellent<br />
customer service for which RDP is known<br />
for in rural communities, through their<br />
home heating diesel.<br />
RDP began its home heating diesel<br />
delivery service to the lower South Island’s<br />
main urban centres of Christchurch, Timaru,<br />
Dunedin and Invercargill a number of years<br />
ago. Customer demand has continued<br />
to increase year upon year, and RDP has<br />
responded with specialised improvements to<br />
its delivery equipment.<br />
The trucks that deliver RDP’s home<br />
heating diesel in each urban centre are<br />
drawn from the company’s extensive<br />
PEGASUS POST<br />
vehicle fleet. This means they have the latest<br />
communication and GPS tracking technology<br />
on board, so the operations team always<br />
know where they are and how far away they<br />
are from their next delivery stop.<br />
RDP’s home heating diesel trucks come<br />
equipped with a specially-designed hose,<br />
through which the diesel is pumped from<br />
the truck into house tanks. The length of<br />
the hose allows the trucks to access tanks<br />
without having to enter the property, avoiding<br />
damaging the driveway. RDP is the place to<br />
go if you require diesel conveniently delivered<br />
to your home and as a loyal RDP customer<br />
you’re offered discounted pricing and can<br />
become eligible for value-added benefits.<br />
For all enquiries please phone<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />
Ground moisture barrier<br />
under low sub-floor<br />
Now with the colder and wetter weather on<br />
its way, home owners are focusing on ways<br />
to make their homes comfortable, warm<br />
and healthy for their families throughout<br />
winter. Rising damp is an issue that affects<br />
many of our older properties which suffer<br />
from poor, or no, ground moisture barrier.<br />
In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many<br />
people have relocated to homes that suffer<br />
from rising damp which can be associated<br />
with health problems. Independent tests have<br />
shown that up to 40 litres of water can rise<br />
from the ground and enter a house every day,<br />
leading to mildew, mould, condensation and<br />
musty smells. Moulds can produce various<br />
allergic reactions and the frail, elderly and<br />
very young are especially vulnerable.<br />
Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a<br />
locally owned and operated firm. The team<br />
understands the problems caused by rising<br />
damp and are there to help. They will come<br />
to your damp home and pump a lightweight,<br />
flowable foam concrete under your timber<br />
floored home.<br />
While insulation is important, it has been<br />
recognised that it is dampness that is the real<br />
villain in the house. The new Healthy Homes<br />
Standards introduced by the government<br />
effective from the 1st July 2019 now has<br />
a requirement to install ground moisture<br />
barriers, a key element in the armory to fight<br />
moisture in the home.<br />
Dr Larry Bellamy BE (hons) PhD in a<br />
report dated 1988: Foam Concrete Under<br />
Timber Floors: An Energy Analysis assessed<br />
the effects of placing Foam Concrete over<br />
damp soil and had this to say: Condensation<br />
on the underside of a timber floor can occur<br />
where the floor is suspended over damp<br />
ground and the inside air temperature falls<br />
close to the crawl space air temperature.<br />
Much energy is required to vaporize moisture<br />
that penetrates the structure. By avoiding<br />
underfloor condensation, foam concrete can<br />
reduce floor heat losses by up to 90%.<br />
• Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd can in most<br />
cases, install a Ground Moisture Barrier<br />
under the suspended wooden floor of your<br />
home, even when there is no crawl space.<br />

New Zealand.<br />

Zone Control for your<br />
Ducted heat pump<br />
Ducted heat pumps are a highly efficient<br />
way to heat (or cool) your home. The<br />
air from the heat pump is ducted to<br />
several rooms or zones in your house.<br />
Using a zone control system makes your<br />
ducted heat pump even more efficient, by<br />
specifying the amount of heat required<br />
in each area, so not wasting energy to<br />
overheat or overcool any room.<br />
The AirTouch4 zone control system<br />
from Smooth-Air takes ducted heat pump<br />
air zoning to a whole new level of comfort<br />
and energy efficiency.<br />
AirTouch4 - The Ultimate Zone<br />
Control<br />
Have total control of your comfort zone:<br />
AirTouch4 lets everyone enjoy a different<br />
level of conditioned air in the room they<br />
are in.<br />
Save money on the power bill, without<br />
compromising on comfort, by only<br />
running the heating or cooling where<br />
you need it with Smart Zoning. Plus with<br />
runtime tracking, energy and airflow<br />
management technology, you can enjoy<br />
greater efficiency and savings from your<br />
family’s ducted heat pump.<br />
The AirTouch4 can also connect to<br />
Google Home and Amazon Alexa.<br />
Not every home is designed equal. Not<br />
every room is either. 60 % Temperatures can<br />
often fluctuate from one room to the next<br />
because of sunlight, room activity or other<br />
factors.<br />
With AirTouch4’s Individual<br />
Temperature Control Technology (ITC),<br />
the AirTouch monitors temperatures<br />
and smartly adjusts airflow as needed<br />
around your home with the aid of multiple<br />
wireless temperature sensors instead of a<br />
single sensor in one location. When some<br />
rooms get too hot or cold, the AirTouch<br />
will adjust airflow to maintain your desired<br />
temperature, without wasting conditioned<br />
air on rooms already comfortable.<br />
