Facility Highlights

Traditional and Renovated Facility Highlights

Smoke Detectors

There’s a $50 penalty for tampering with the warning sticker on the smoke detector. If there is a problem with the smoke detector, please submit a housing maintenance request in the Resident Portal.

Test/Reset Outlet

If appliances aren’t working, check the ground fault interrupter (GFI) reset button located near the refrigerator in the kitchen.

Heat Convectors

These are located along the outside walls. Push them open to circulate heat. There’s a central control for the building.

Freezer

Please do not pack the freezer to maximum capacity. Air needs to circulate around food to keep the freezer in working condition.

Highly Renovated and Modern Facility Highlights

Sprinkler System

It’s hard wired. The smoke detectors do not have batteries. Be cautious of sprinklers when carrying large objects into your apartment. Caps and pipes are located along the wall and ceiling and in the stairwell and balcony. Do not hang items from these.

Card Door Access

Enter your card, then your code (for each number press hard enough to see a yellow light). To reset the system, press the “#” button. Green means go, red means it did not take the code — start over. If the battery is low, the light will blink intermittently — call maintenance to enter a work order.

Dead Bolt

Don’t let the door slam shut with the dead bolt activated. It ruins the locks and the wiring. While moving in, please prop the door open.

Balcony Door Lock

Lift the handle and turn the knob to secure the dead bolt, then turn the bottom lock. If the lock is hard to turn or is grinding, contact the Jardine Apartments office.

HVAC Unit Doors

These are locked. Maintenance will come in once a semester to replace the filter. Items that can be quickly and easily moved may be placed in front of the door, but they will need to be moved for maintenance.

Voice/Data Ports

V for voice (phone); D for data (internet)

Garbage Disposal

This is not a trash can. No grease. Run cold water at all times when the disposal is on. The switch is located by the sink.

Laundry

The washer lid has a magnet, so watch your fingers! Empty the dryer’s lint trap after each load.

Corner Cabinent

(Not in all apartments.) Doors have magnets to open.

Electrical Service

Residents in non-hybrid units are responsible for their electricity. Failure to set up electricity properly prior to moving into Jardine — or to maintain continuous services or an up-to-date account with Evergy — is a violation of this agreement and may result in a contractual hearing, penalties, monetary fines such as service reconnection fees, and possibly termination of the agreement (see Termination Policy). Maintaining continuous Evergy service in an occupied apartment is the responsibility of all roommates, regardless of which roommate is the official account holder.
