Maintenance and Improvements
1.

Toner ran out in the CH printer. New High Capacity cartridge
purchased - should get us most of the way through next year.
2.

One of the fans for CH stove has died. A similar replacement was
found by Erik on eBay. An exact replacement cannot be found
because we can
no longer ascertain the model number. Replacement is $40 from eBay and
would require some assembly. Still hoping to figure out our model number
and navigate the Vent-A-Hood support site to determine an OEM solution.
3.

Dining room thermostat was set to cool at 60 degrees on a cold
evening and it was valiantly trying to get there when we
intervened and set
it to heat. Not sure who or why on that one.
4.

Microphones were purchased for the Game room for when we have
meetings in that space. Process contributed funds to help offset
the cost.
5.

The west end thermostat was not blowing fan between heating or
cooling and Ben from 4 Seasons came out and found that our
furnace control
board was wired wrong - he fixed it and everything works great now. $90.
3.

Info: New work season jobs have been posted on the end cap of the
cubbies. Thanks to Yi Miau for the reminder to do so.
4.

Info: Tammy will have a class in the dining room and kitchen next Monday
and emailed to let us know to alert the Work Skills folks. Nancy will let
them know.
5.

Info: Not placing cardboard in the recycling boxes below the cubbies.
6.

Info: Another silent retreat will be happening in the CH on Nov 30 and
Dec 1st and 2nd. You are welcome to join in the activities.
7.

Info: The 4 season wall hangings will be coming back.
8.

Decision: The CH has a power usage monitoring device called TED that
Aditya installed when he lived here. We no longer monitor the information
from that device and Adi would like to repurpose it in his own home if we
are not going to use it. Proposal that we bequeath the unused TED monitor
to Aditya. APPROVED.
