Please be mindful of the amount of water used and your time in the shower (showering, washing, etc.) since it is being provided by the little turquoise well on the property and mother nature be kind to it. > We do recommend that your shower be quick, especially if many people are going to shower. The hot water does run out quickly, just heads up. 5. Please Do Not flush feminine products, trash, or disposable wipes in the toilet. Please do not throw too much toilet paper in the toilet to avoid clogging the delicate old house plumbing, and it's a septic tank. 6.

Please let your host know about your project idea before or you will be charged. **No nudist photoshoot or nudity outside the property because we have other guest on the property, and it is a family friendly space. 15. Pellet Heater Do's and Don'ts: IMPORTANT: PROHIBITED to unplug (DO NOT UNPLUG) at any time especially when the system is running at heat mode. It can cause serious expensive damage to the pellet heater!! DO NOT UNPLUG, ONLY use the ON/OFF on the remote or on the unit to turn it OFF or ON. It takes a while to cool off and completely turn OFF, so be patient with it! DON’t move it around, if you need any help, please message your host and we will be glad to help. b). The Pellet Heater can be manually turned ON/OFF, or you can press the ON/OFF button on the remote control. You can control the heat arrow levels 1 thru 5 on both the remote control and manually by pressing the buttons directly on the unit. We recommend keeping the heater at levels 1 or 2 to keep it running all night. If you constantly change the settings the temperature will fluctuate between levels and the pellets will not last long and will be used up faster. Remember to always close the door to keep the temperature warm inside as this will help warm up the place faster. IMPORTANT: DO NOT let the heater run out of pellets because the heater will turn off automatically and then it will take time to turn it back up again. Before going to bed please check that heater has plenty of pellets. Ensure that the hopper is filled up ¾ of the way and that the heat level is not at the highest level, this will keep you cozy at night. Also, keep the container door always closed and completely clean of any pellets stuck in between the door so it also keeps the heater running or the heater will automatically stop working. Both pellet doors need to be completely shut so the pellet heater doesn’t stop working and it continues to work properly. If you are staying longer than 2 days, it is best to clean the inside of the heat container from the front main door. Before you open the door make sure the pellet heater is turned off and it’s not HOT. Again, please before doing any maintenance make sure the heater is completely cool and not HOT. Then take the ash tray and carefully clean it by dumping it over at the metal trash can next to the Pellet Heater. Then put it back again and make sure it assembles correctly, then close the door tightly, make sure it has pellets and turn it back ON. CAUTION: DO NOT TOUCH THE TOP PART OF THE PELLET HEATER OR LEAVE ANYTHING ON TOP BECAUSE IT IS HOT, ESPECIALLY THE PELLET BAGS!! Enjoy your stay!! Thank you, the property manager Ranch
