Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do not attempt to solve issue. Call the gas company (Eversource: 877-944-5325) and report the leak.
2. Place a work order or call (203) 517-0545 x3.
3. Leave building until gas company addresses issue.

1. Plunge the toilet to release clog. This may take a few tries to work
2. If toilet is overflowing, shut off the water using the valve at the base of the toilet, mop up any water and try to plunge the toilet again.

1. Open the top of toilet, see if chain has a kink/or is caught.
2. Check if anything is preventing the flapper from going down.
3. Place work order if issue persists.

1. Place a bucket underneath and turn off the water supply.
2. Feel the water lines for any wetness. They may sweat in the summertime. If you do not have an air-conditioned apartment, this can cause excessive sweating from your toilet and can create a large puddle of water around it. Feel the bottom and back of the tank to see if it is just sweating or if it’s leaking.
3. If there is water all over your bathroom floor, make sure your curtain is on the INSIDE of your tub/shower. If your curtain has two layers (plastic inside, cloth outside), make sure you are placing the plastic side on the inside of your tub/shower. Otherwise, the water will flow down the curtain and all over your floor.
4. If leak persists, place a work order.

1. Try using Drano (or another clog removing solution).
2. If tub drain is clogged, check to make sure the stopper is in the fully “open” position and look for any hair around the drain that can be easily removed.
3. If issue continues, please place a work order.
4. Many times, we find clogs are caused by things that should not be disposed of into the drain system. This can include but is not limited to: food, baby wipes, diapers, feminine products, paper towel, etc. If we find that this has happened, you will be charged for the plumbing bill. Toilet paper and human waste is the only thing that should be disposed into the drain system.

In cold weather it is possible pipes may freeze. If you notice any issue with the water supply to your apartment please notify us. If the water supply starts to act funny or run slow this may be sign of pipes freezing and there are a couple things to do that may help:

1. Open the cabinets under the sink and remove any items near the pipes to allow warm air to circulate under the sink.
2. Turn on the cold water to the sink to allow water to flow. Flowing water will help keep the pipes from freezing. A small flow of water is enough, the water does not need to be on fully.
3. If on vacation in the winter, set your thermostat to a minimum of 60 degrees to ensure pipes don’t freeze.
4. Please notify us of any issues if you suspect you are having issues with the water supply to your apartment.

1. If there is a GFI, press the reset button.
2. Check if ALL breakers are “ON.”
3. Check if the power is out in the hallway or other apartments in the building. If power is out at the whole property, please report the outage to your property’s electric company (Eversource: 800-286-2000) or SNEW (203-866-3366). If the power is only out in your apartment, place a work order.

In most cases, yes. You are responsible to maintain your lightbulbs that can be reached from a step ladder and that can be purchased from any hardware store. If you come across a light that you cannot reach with a step ladder, such as ones on vaulted ceilings or high stairways, you may place a work order.

1. Make sure the fan mode on the thermostat is set to “AUTO”. Otherwise your furnace fan will constantly blow air and will be drawing hot air into your home when the A/C unit is not running. If temperatures are extreme, your A/C unit may not be able to keep up with what you have it set to. An A/C can only cool about 20°F lower than what the outside air is. (i.e. 95°F outside, your house will only get down to about 75° inside).
2. Check to make sure the filter is clean.
3. If filter is not clean, make a work order to clean the filter.

Please contact our management office.

1. Check the circuit breakers to ensure they are all in the fully on position.
2. If you have an on/off switch for the equipment in your apartment or you have access to the equipment itself please check to ensure the on/off switch is in the on position. The switch is usually at the top of the equipment. The switch can also be in the area near the equipment marked with a red plate.

1. Make sure all circuit breakers are in the ON position.
2. Make sure the thermostat is set to HEAT and set fan to AUTO.
3. Make sure the thermostat has power, replace batteries if necessary. Batteries should be replaced every Fall.
4. Turn the thermostat off for 2-5 mins, then turn back on.
5. Make sure your gas has not been shut off.
6. Check all outside doors for a tag from your gas company. Also, think of the last time you paid your bill.
7. Check your gas meter as well, check for a tag on the meter and to see if the gas valve is turned off on the meter. If your gas has been shut off, we cannot help in this matter. You will need to call your gas provider to work this out.
8. If you have an on/off switch for the heating equipment in your apartment, check to ensure the on/off switch to the heating equipment is in the on position. This switch usually has a red cover to indicate it is for the heating equipment.

The car accident is to be dealt with between you and whomever’s car you hit / whoever hit your car. It is the responsibility of the individual who caused the accident to notify the tenant whose car was hit (we can supply the car information in that case.) In regards to video footage, we will gladly supply said footage to insurance companies or police departments. All requests for video footage need to be submitted directly to us from the organization requesting footage, but we will not supply it directly to a tenant.

An important part of pest control is ensuring the upkeep and cleanliness of the apartment. A messy apartment can create the conditions in which these types of issue thrive. Pest issues caused by un-cleanliness will likely be charged back to the tenant. A well-kept apartment can go a long way in addressing these types of issues and may even resolve some issues entirely. These steps may include but are not limited to:

1. The immediate cleaning of any food spills.
2. Removing any trash from the apartment on a regular basis.
3. Ensuring all kitchenware is thoroughly cleaned and put away promptly after use

• Proper identification is key to addressing any potential issue quickly and effectively. Often the easiest way to quickly identify a pest is to take a picture of the potential pest. Once identification is made, if an issue exists it can be addressed.
• One way to get a picture is to capture an intact, un-smushed pest. This can be done with either clear tape or a clear plastic bag. Once the pest is on the tape or in the bag, please take the highest resolution picture you can and send it to us in a work order.

Beyond extraordinary circumstances, these types of issue are typically covered.

How to Recognize a Dying Battery:

• Occasionally the lock requires periodic service. This typically occurs less than once a year.
• If the light on the lock red and blinking, your lock is indicating a critically low battery.
• Upon the first notice of a low battery signal from the key pad, please submit a work-order to have the lock serviced and the battery replaced. If you do not submit a work-order in a timely fashion there is a chance you may become locked out of your apartment should the normal service period be exceeded.
