Laundry Areas
There are six front load laundry machines and 2 dryers available on each floor. As these are used by all residents, it is very important that everyone use them respectfully:
- In order to not disturb other residents, try to avoid doing laundry before 8am and after 10pm.
- Try to limit use to 2 machines per family at a time in order to allow for others to use the machines within the appropriate times listed above.
- Be respectful and unload your laundry as soon as possible after the cycle is complete. There are others waiting to use the machine. You should leave a laundry basket so your clothes can be removed if they are left unattended. Do not be offended if someone removes your clothing from a machine if it is left sitting there.
- Leave the machine clean. Be sure nothing is left in the drum after use. Items (coins, tissue, etc.) in the groove of the rubber ring around the portal can block drainage – if an alarm sounds and the machine stops – check there first.
- Do not leave your laundry supplies in the common laundry area. Leaving items on the tops of the machines can cause an inconvenience to others.
- Refer to the posted instructions on how to use the washing machine properly. The center groove in the pullout tray is for fabric softener. The outer two grooves are for laundry detergent. Liquid laundry detergent provides the best results.
- If a machine is broken, please unplug it an drape the cord over the top of the machine then notify General Affairs.
- Machines are checked, cleaned and maintained on a regular basis (usually once per week).
Drying Racks
Drying racks are located on the balcony of each apartment. These are operated with a removable rotary handle. Please be careful when using the drying rack in order to avoid damage. Residents should secure items on the racks so they do not blow off the balcony.
