Thermostat

Using the Nest Thermostat

Setting the Temperature:

If you want to change the temperature - rotate the silver ring to the right to heat, or to the left to cool and select your desired temperature. The target temperature is the large number displayed in the middle, and the current temperature of the house will be displayed on the top in small numbers. During both cooling and heating, be sure to keep all windows and doors closed so the house can properly maintain your desired temperature.

Please note – if you’d like the upper levels to cool or heat faster, you may close the vents in the lower level to direct all the air upstairs. Likewise if the lower level isn’t cooling or heating evenly with the rest of the house, please check to make sure all the vents are open.

For Heating

When the Nest temperature setting appears with an orange background it is in heating mode. Please do not set the heating temperature above 80 degrees. Due to occasional vacancy of our home there are periods of time it will be set to the base temperature and can take a little time for the house to heat up to your set temperature. Setting the temperature over 80 degrees will not speed up this process. *If you would like some extra heat in a particular room we’ve provided a space heater for you to use, it is kept on the lower level.

For Cooling

When the Nest temperature setting appears with a blue background it is in cooling mode. Please do not set the cooling temperature to any lower than 68 degrees. These are the instructions we’ve received from the installers of our A/C unit. If the thermostat is set too low it can cause the A/C unit to freeze and stop working.

Set to Eco at Check-Out

First press the front surface of the thermostat to pull up the menu. Rotate the outer silver ring to navigate the menu and press the surface to select the green leaf symbol “Eco”.

Other Household Information

Trash

Kitchen trash is located in a base cabinet to the right of the sink. Trash pickup is Mondays and Thursdays please take the trash to the street the night before trash pickup. After pickup, please pick up trash bin and roll back inside the garage.

Dishwasher

Please use dishwasher tablets only, no liquid detergent. To run, first add a dishwasher tablet inside the washer, choose your wash settings on the top of the dishwasher door, hit start, and then close the dishwasher. Once the door is shut, the wash cycle will start.

Washer/Dryer

Please clean off the lint tray in the dryer after each load of laundry. We recommend using timed drying as it dries better than the other settings. Occasionally a load of linens may be finishing in the dryer. If you need to use the dryer during your stay and find linens in there, please put them in the provided linen bags and set them aside for our housekeeper.

Pantry Items

Any food items left in the cabinets/pantry spaces, spices, baking items, etc. are there for your use. Feel free to leave behind any unopened non-perishable items for future guests.

Hot Water Heater

Our hot water is sourced from a tank, so therefore it is not limitless at a given time. It’s average run time is about 20-30 minutes of hot water. After the tank has been emptied it requires about 20-30 minutes to reheat another full tank of hot water.

Toilets

PLEASE only flush toilet paper. Our pipes are not able to handle feminine products, paper towels, Kleenex, floss, etc. These are the items removed from the pipes when we’ve had a backup.

Outdoor Grill

Our grill runs on a propane tank. If it becomes empty during your stay we will reimburse you for the refill, it can be exchanged at Lowes or Albertsons. Just take a photo of your receipt and email or text it to (719) 417-5917 and we will promptly reimburse you.

Fire Pit

We provide a lighter, stored in one of the kitchen drawers. Firewood can be purchased at Lowes and grocery stores, typically available year round. Please exercise caution when using the outdoor fire pit, especially on windy days. New Mexico is a very dry climate and fires can spread easily so the fire pit should NEVER be left unattended. To put out the fire please douse it with water to make sure it’s completely out.
