A couple of useful hints...

Debbie & Steve from TASK Maintenance & Glass & Handyman Service

Happy Monday Neighbours 😊
Many of us rely on tank water and summer is a testing time to ration our supply between useful rainfalls. While we don’t need to use our dehumidifiers so much in the warmer months, when you do and it's time to empty the dehumidifiers tank, tip the water into your washing machine, every little bit of conserved water helps. We also use our dehumidifier water on our house plants without any adverse effects.

Another little tip for when we wear our masks during Covid, if like us your glasses fog up when you have your mask on, clean the lenses with a little shaving foam and remove with a soft cloth, it works 😊

Think about protecting your home while you are away at the beach

Howard from AB Electrical

As the festive season approaches, many are planning their holiday at one of the magnificent beaches we enjoy in NZ. But often families overlook that they are leaving their family home unattended. Security lights activated by motion detection provide a fantastic deterrent to people who may be snooping around while you are away. When your driveway suddenly lights up like Eden Park, this is a great message for the uninvited to go elsewhere. Makes sure you have some form of security lighting in place before you head off to the beach. Replace failed security lights and ensure peace of mind while you are away. Don't be the only home in the street that has no security lights - you may become the target
