Trash Removal
Residents are required to take their trash to the dumpsters outside their buildings. Housekeeping handles trash and recycling removal from lobbies, lounges, laundry rooms, and common bathrooms twice a day, ensuring clean and welcoming common areas.
HVAC System
Air Conditioned Building with Seasonal Transitioning
La Plata Hall’s HVAC system operates on a seasonal heating and cooling schedule, with transitions typically occurring in April and October. Each room is equipped with a convector that circulates warm air from heated water running through the building’s pipes. While residents cannot adjust the temperature, Residential Facilities maintenance staff monitor the supply temperatures daily to ensure comfort. Residents can lift the hinged door on the convector and adjust the knob to control the fan speed or turn it off.
