Suite Maintenance: Reminder of Owners' responsibility

Exhaust Fans:
Exhaust Fans are the responsibility of the suite owner: please ensure that you change any exhaust fans that are currently not working in your suites. Make a report to the Management Office and one will be ordered and installed. The cost of this installation is minimal. Suite owners can hire their own contractor to install the exhaust fans.

Air Condition / Heating Units / Fan coil:
A/C units are the responsibility of the suite owner: filters are changed once a year by Management as a courtesy in order to improve efficiency. Please make sure your filters are changed regularly and your fan coil is serviced on a yearly basis. Filters can be purchased from the Management Office. Suite owners can hire their own HVAC company to provide the maintenance, alternatively the Management can arrange for a technician based on the suite owners request.

Door closers:
The Fire Code requires all suite owners to ensure that door closers are in good working order. Suite owners can hire their own contractor to install the door closer, alternatively the Management can arrange for a technician based on the suite owners request.

Smoke Alarms:
The Fire Code requires all suite owners to ensure that smoke alarms in their suites are in working order. Management can arrange for a technician based on the suite owners request.

Toilet Replacement Program

Each suite can have their Toilet replaced for $150.00. This includes the toilet and installation. Owners can replace one at a time if needed. 

Place Royale Board of Directors thanks all residents for their continued support in improving our property. Thank you.

Security Cameras B1 Level

Installation has commenced and work should be completed by mid September. Cameras will be placed on all fire exits, entrances/exits and other areas that will increase security in the building. 

Security Cameras G Level

High Definition Cameras have been installed on the G level.

Construction: Back of the Building

The re-sloping of the back of the building so that water drains away from the structure which was discussed in the AGM is now 75% complete and on budget. A water test was conducted last night which shows there was no water flowing back to the building. Once we get a heavy rain fall we will be able to further check the system. The area will also be monitored in spring of 2017 after the thaw.
 
BBQ Patio

Persons wishing to BBQ can use the patio only.
NOTE: The area will be dusty. There will be no access to areas outside the patio. 

Car Wash

As the area with the car wash is under construction, you can utilize a hose that has been placed at the back of the building close to the moving room. Kindly register with Security to use the area.
NOTE: Maximum time per suite is 2hrs.
 
Visitor Parking

The gate for Visitor Parking is now in effect. 

Garden Club

If you would like to be a part of the Garden Club please sign up at Security. There is room for 10-15 people. The responsibilities of the Club will be determined at the first meeting. 

Toilet Replacement Program

There are still a number of suites that need to upgrade to more water efficient toilets. The Board will be introducing a program soon; more information to follow.  

Reducing Cost - Utilities

Tips:
1. Please ensure that your A/C is switched “Auto” and set to 25 degrees when you are not home
2. Turn Faucet off when brushing teeth, shaving and so on
3. Change incandescent bulbs to CFL or LED
4. Change your A/C filter every three months or sooner depending on usage 
5. Turn off lights, TVs, audio equipment; unplug electrical items when you are not using them
NOTE: These little changes will reduce cost and influence the budget and condo fees.
