On a couple of occasions in the last month or so, the heaters in the main dorm and in the dining area have been tampered with, rendering them inoperable. In each case, we have had to call out an electrician to repair and replace the damaged parts at a cost of £95.
Steve and I are puzzled as to why people need to mess about with the heaters. They are easy to operate – the first press of the ‘BOOST’ button will give 15 minutes heat, the second press 30 minutes, the third 1 hour, the fourth 2 hours. Once set, the timer counts down to zero. A fifth press returns the timer to zero.
We will be putting instruction notices by each heater in the hope that we can avoid any further damage and expense.
