TO OPTIMISE THE SERVICES PROVIDED, PLEASE TAKE PARTICULAR NOTE OF THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:-
• USE ONLY THE APPLIANCES PROVIDED: The house runs a solar/battery system with a diesel back up generator, and we have carefully selected our appliances to suit our system. Use of your own appliances, especially frypans, hairdryers, toasters and portable fridges is not allowed, and if used, may overload the system & cause the supply to fail, which you would find very inconvenient, and you may incur a charge for resetting of the system. Prior approval from the owners is required for any additional plug-in appliances.
• WASHING MACHINE AND VACUUM CLEANER: These are supplied and as they draw a large electric current they are best used in mornings on sunny days to allow time for batteries to recharge.
• Lights: Lights – should be turned off if not needed to conserve the battery power. The diesel generator will recharge low batteries, but not between 9pm and 9am.
• Toilet System: The toilet system is septic. Please do not flush nappies, personal hygiene items or any other unsuitable items down the toilets or sinks. Failure to comply with this condition could cause a blockage in the drains, which you would find very inconvenient, as well as being very unpleasant.
