Please remember to keep your pets on a leash while in the common area of the building. This includes the residential hallways, garage, elevators and lobby. It’s important that residents observe this rule for everyone’s safety and comfort. Please note the Aria Handbook Rule on this matter:

Leash Required. Dogs and cats must be kept on a leash at all times at all times while traveling through any Common Area or Association Property by a person capable of controlling the animal. Leashes may be no longer than ten (10) feet in length. If a retractable/extendable leash that can extend beyond ten (10) feet is used, the leash must be locked or held in a manner so that it does not extend beyond ten (10) feet.

The garage gate will be closed on Tuesday, June 20 from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm for extensive repairs. Vehicles and pedestrians will not be able to enter or exit through the gate during this time. Residents are encouraged to make necessary arrangements in advance (such as parking their vehicle(s) on the street or near by parking lots) should they need to use their car during this time frame. For your safety and the safety of the crew working on the gate, please do not attempt to walk or drive through the area while the gate is under construction.

HVAC Air Filters

Replacing the filter in your heating and air conditioning unit (HVAC) not only keeps the air clean in your unit but helps the life performance of your system. Depending on how often you use your HVAC depends on how often you should change the filter.

Start by learning the location of the air filter in your heating and cooling system. The most common air filters are wall or ceiling units. Many air handling units have slots to insert filters into the air flow. Although it takes less than a minute to change the filters, this is one of the most commonly overlooked details. Clean filters provide an even flow of clean air within your condo and reduces system operating costs.

• Use the Correct Filter: Be sure to purchase the correct filter for your unit. Some filters are so tightly meshed that they actually starve the system of air. Ensure that the new filter is properly fitted so air is properly filtered and does not bypass the system. The air filter may be located in a wall or ceiling unit.
• Maintenance: Change/clean the air filter. For reusable filters, vacuum and wash with detergent and water; allow filter to air dry before replacing it.
• Frequency: Per the manufacturer’s recommendations(typically monthly during high use seasons)
• Effects of Deferred Maintenance: Clogged filters can result in reduced airflow and colder supply temperature which may cause condensing units to automatically shut off, causing units to cycle excessively and reduce heating efficiency. These conditions have also been associated with damage from moisture condensation. Dirty filters can also cause streaking on the walls near vents.
