FRIENDLY REMINDER: PLEASE ENSURE CONTRACTORS DO NOT DISCONNECT FIRE SYSTEM COMPONENTS
As a reminder to all Savina residents, any contractors working inside your home must not remove, disconnect, or tamper with any fire-related components in your unit. This includes speakers, strobes, sensors, or any device that is part of the building’s fire/life safety system.
Contractors may cover these components with appropriate tape or protective material, but they should never be unplugged or taken down.
This past weekend, a vendor disconnected a fire-system speaker inside a unit. This created a “trouble” signal on the building’s fire panel. When this happens:
- We must immediately call an engineer to ensure the system is safe.
- Unless the sign-in sheet points us directly to the right unit, Engineering must spend time reviewing building plans to locate the issue.
- Most importantly, Savina’s system operates on a loop which means:
- Disconnecting one speaker does not affect just one unit. It can disrupt communication across multiple units on that loop.
- In a real fire, this could prevent life-safety alerts from reaching part of the building.
If a contractor disconnects fire equipment and it causes an emergency response, such as engineer call-outs, after-hours work, overtime for staff, or system repairs, the Association will seek reimbursement from the unit owner.
We want to avoid placing any resident in that situation, so please share this reminder with your contractors before they begin work. If you have any questions before work begins in your unit, the management team is always happy to assist.
QUIET HOURS REMINDER
To help maintain a peaceful and enjoyable living environment for all residents, please be mindful of noise levels. Residents are expected to use courtesy regarding voice levels, unnecessary noise, and boisterous conduct that may be heard outside their residential unit. This includes televisions, stereos, cell phones, other sound-emitting devices, and pets. Please keep the volume of all devices at a reasonable level, particularly during designated quiet hours from 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.
Please be kind to your neighbors. There have been several noise complaints recently. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.

In observance of Independence Day, the Management and Engineering teams will be off on Friday, July 3.
TRAVELING FOR THE HOLIDAY? PROTECT YOUR HOME
If you are heading out of town for the holiday, we recommend turning off the water supply to your residence before you leave. This simple step can help prevent costly water damage in the event of an unexpected leak while you are away. If you’re unsure where your unit’s water shut-off valves are located, the Engineering team is happy to show you where they are before your trip.
We also recommend confirming that the Association has a current emergency key for your unit. If an emergency occurs while you are away and we are unable to access your unit, forced entry may be necessary to prevent further damage. Any costs associated with forced entry and repairs would be the responsibility of the homeowner. If you have any questions, please contact Management.
