House rules for Nordraaks gate 3: Adopted at the resident’s meeting of 16 April 2013 (unofficial translation)

Please note: As a service to those of our residents that do not fully understand Norwegian, we have made an unofficial translation of the house rules into English. Do take the time to read this section.

  1. The articles of the Condominium require that there shall at all times be house rules, and that every co-owner shall ensure that these rules are adhered to by the residents in the unit he/she owns. Every co-owner is liable to make good any damage which occurs as a result of infringement (violation) of the house rules or lack of due care. In the common interest, it is the right – and the duty – of co-owners, their families and subtenants to intervene when they see anyone behaving in a manner which contravenes these rules.
  2. Between 23:00 in the evening and 07:00 in the morning there shall be silence/quiet in the entire complex, including the corridor and entrance halls. Radios/televisions and similar devices must at all times be adjusted to a level that does not disturb their neighbours. Thesame goes for usage of washing machines and other “noisy” household equipment.
  3. It is strictly forbidden to hang to dry, air orshake outany fabric or similar on balconies visible from the street – nor from any window in the building.

  5. For any installment that affects the façade of the building, please contact the house committee beforehand for special guidelines.
  6. Nordraaks gate 3 is equipped with a common ventilation plant system, which runs at (full speed) various hours during the day. Consequently, the residents may not install ventilators directly attached to this central system. Instead, anextractor fan/ventilator with charcoal filter (in Norwegian:kullfilter) is recommended. Please contact the house committee prior to purchase if in doubt.
