Q) My remote control for the gate no longer works, what should I do?

All concerns related to remote controls and the security gates should be addressed to Alliant Property Management. You can find their contact information here.

Q) My Air Conditioner unit is not working and I suspect my condensation pipe is backed up, what should I do?

Owners may choose to vacuum the backup from the outside pipe (located in the ground behind your unit between the building and hedge) with a wet vac. A plumber or HVAC Technician may also be called to clean this pipe at owners' expense. For preventative maintenance, every time you change your filter, you can pour 1 cup of vinegar into the pipe using a funnel to access the overflow drain at the AC unit inside the condo and then follow with 1 quart of hot water. If you use bleach instead of vinegar, be sure to shut off your system as bleach may enter your condensation coil and cause damage to the AC unit. There is a wet vac in the storage shed belonging to the owners of 215 which may be borrowed if needed. The HOA conducts cleaning of the condensation pipes twice per year.

Q) There is someone in the pool area or parking lot that I don't recognize, what should I do?

If you have reason to believe the person(s) should not be there, and are reluctant to ask them to leave, please contact the management company. If you know the person should not be there and/or they are refusing to leave, you may contact Lee County Sheriff non emergency 239-477-1000 to report people trespassing on private property.

Q) There is a lot of debris in front of my unit, when will it be cleaned?

The lawn care company will remove debris from the ground floor walkways on a weekly basis and the cleaning service will perform similar services for both floors on a bi-weekly basis. There is also a cordless leaf blower in the storage shed behind the pool that owners may use to remove the debris themselves. Please be considerate of your neighbors and try to use the blower between 9AM and 7PM only.

Q) The BBQ tank appears to be out of gas? How do I get more?

There are two tanks for the BBQ, the primary tank is connected inside the console and the secondary tank is chained to the fence along with the BBQ. The combination for the lock is 9546. If you were the last person using the tank when it ran out of gas, please take the empty tank and exchange it for a full one (at your expense) before reattaching to the fence.
