🌡️ Dual-Zone HVAC
The house has upper and lower zone thermostats located in the bedroom hallways. Open and close vents in each room to direct airflow as needed.
Outdoor
Pool & Hot Tub
🏊 Pool Heating
Pool heating is available at an additional cost of $100/night and must be prepaid — it is controlled remotely. The spa/hot tub is always heated.
♨️ Hot Tub
Serviced Monday & Friday by Andrew (928-399-8045). Tech will knock before entering. Always keep cover on when not in use — hot tubs only heat with the cover closed.
🎛️ Pool Cover
Use the wall controller at the back entrance to open and close the pool cover. Never manually force it.
🌡️ Hot Tub Temperature
Use the control panel located in front of the hot tub to adjust the temperature setting.
🌧️ Jammed Pool Cover After Rain
If water has accumulated on the pool cover after rain, follow these steps. The blue automatic pump and extension cord are located by the pool equipment area.
Open cover about 80% — rainwater will roll toward the mechanism end and collect at the back.
Place the blue automatic pump directly into the puddle at the back of the pool.
Connect power safely — use the provided extension cord. Plug into the GFCI outlet on the pool-side control panel. Route cord along the deck edge, keep it out of water.
Attach the garden hose to the pump outlet and run the other end into the pool.
The pump turns on automatically when it detects water and shuts off when dry. You can leave it unattended.
Unplug, coil the cord and hose neatly, and store the pump by the pool equipment.
Outdoor
Fire Pit & BBQ
🔥 Gas Fire Pit
Fire pits use a long metal key inserted into the side of the stone pit to control the gas ball valve.
Insert the metal key into the hole on the side of the firepit.
Hold a barbecue lighter or long match at the center of the burner.
Turn the key to the ON position — you will hear gas releasing. The flame will ignite.
To turn off, turn the key back to the OFF position.
🍖 BBQ Grill
Grill is connected to natural gas — no propane tank needed. Check grease trays inside the BBQ drawers and ensure they are not overflowing before use.

🧖 Sauna Heater Operating Instructions
The sauna has two dials: the left dial controls heat / temperature, and the right dial is the timer. The reset button is located on the bottom of the heater.
How to start the heater (immediate use):
- Find the Timer Knob (right dial).
- Turn it to the first notch — the large "1".
- You'll hear a loud "CLUMP" or click. The heater is now on.
Automatic shut-off: The heater turns off automatically after 1 hour. To keep it running, turn the timer knob back to the "1" again.
Won't turn on? Check the Reset Button (Overheat Protector) on the bottom of the unit — pushing this should reset the system.
☂️ Patio Umbrella — Always Close When Not Supervised
Always close the umbrella when not in use. If left open, wind will blow it over and break it. Replacement cost: $200.
