If your on-campus housing is too cold, did you know that you (or your RA) have control of the thermostats in your area?<\/p>\n<p>Please contact your RA if you&#8217;re unsure where your thermostat is located or if you don&#8217;t know how to adjust the temperature in your living space. The RA can place a work order with Plant Services if the thermostat creating a heat request is unresponsive. Ask your RA if you don&#8217;t know where the heat source (vent or radiator) is located in the room.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some helpful things to keep in mind:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Leaving a window open with the heat on may create problems with regulating heat for a space, so keep the windows closed if the heat is on.<\/li>\n<li>Close and lock your windows before leaving your room for safety and for comfort.<\/li>\n<li>Temperatures take time to raise or lower, so adjust the heat settings in small increments.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t set the thermostat control higher than the temperature desired.<\/li>\n<li>Covering a thermostat will restrict its ability to accurately detect the temperature in the room, so keep the area around the thermostat clear. (Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t hang anything from or over the thermostat.)<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t block heat registers. Don&#8217;t place a dresser or cabinet on top of the vent, and make sure furniture does not block vents located on the floor or wall.<\/li>\n<li>Keep flammable materials such as paper and fabric away from hot surfaces (like a radiator).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Plant Services wants you to be comfortable and safe.
