Where is the heat?
Fall is here! There is a chill in the air and the leaves are turning color. So when is the heat turned on? The rule is, the heat is switched on after five consecutive days with an average daily outside temperature below 55 F and a five day forecast for more of the same, determined by the weather squadron. Historically, this has usually occurred during the first two weeks in October.
So, how do I turn on my heat? The radiator control is both the thermostat and valve that controls the amount of hot water that flows through the radiator; it must be surrounded by free circulating air. A setting of ‘3’ should provide comfortable heat for the entire room.
East Gate construction
The East Gate is closed until Dec. 31 due to construction of a canopy over the gate. During this time, the Harmon and Junkyard gates will be utilized according to varying schedules. The ELVIS gate will be used for entrance from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. and for exit from 2 to 6 p.m. Additionally, a temporary connection will be made from Lawn and Harmon circles to Kisling Memorial. All detours will be marked. Look for information on storyboards throughout the KMC.
For more information, call the Construction Management Office at 480-2193.
