Ko te tohu tuatahi mō tētahi mea he, ko te reo i puta mai i te rūma kakahu o te whare. I a au e hanga ana i tētahi whata pukapuka, ka karanga mai tētahi reo matihiko marino i muri i te tatau kua kati: "Kei te ripoata te pūnaha Osmosis Whakamuri i tētahi rerekētanga o te rere. Kei te tirotirohia te paipa waikeri."

I tūpato ahau. Ko te reo ko taku pokapū kāinga atamai, ko Alexa. Kāore au i pātai atu ki a ia i tetahi mea. Ā, ko te mea nui ake, kāore au i...ake tonu atui mea atu ki a ia kia kōrero ki taku kaiwhakapai wai.

Nā taua wā i tīmata ai tētahi haerenga 72-hāora o ngā mahi tirotiro matihiko i huraina ai te āhua whakamataku o te "kāinga atamai": ina tīmata ō taputapu ki te kōrero tetahi ki tetahi, tera pea kāore koe i roto i te kōrero. Ā, ko te mea kino rawa atu, ka taea e ā rātou kōrerorero te whakaahua i tētahi whakaahua taipitopito, whakaeke o tō oranga mō te hunga katoa e whakarongo ana.

Te Tirotiro: Te Huarahi i Huri ai tētahi Taputapu hei Tūtei

He whakahoutanga tata nei taku pūwhakamātautau wai "atamai". I hono atu ki te Wi-Fi hei tuku karere whakarerekētanga tātari ki taku waea. I te āhua nei he watea. He harakore.

Nā te panuitanga kore tono a Alexa i ārahi ahau ki roto i te taupānga hoa o te kaihoroi. I roto i te "Tautuhinga Arā Atu Anō" i huna he tahua e kiia nei ko "Ngā Whakaurunga Kāinga Atamai." I tahurihia kia ON. Kei raro iho ko te rārangi o ngā whakaaetanga i tukuna wawetia e au i te wā tatūnga:

• "Tukua te pūrere kia tohatoha i te tūnga ki ngā tūāpapa kāinga atamai kua rēhitatia." (Vague)
• "Tukua te pūhara ki te whakahaere i ngā whakahau tātaritanga." (He aha ngā whakahau?)
• "Whakawhitiwhitihia ngā tātaritanga whakamahinga hei whakapai ake i te ratonga." (Whakapai akenā wairatonga?)

I keri au ki taku taupānga Alexa. I roto i te "Pūkenga" mō taku waitohu horoi wai, i kitea e au te hononga. Kātahi ka kitea e au te ripa "Ngā Mahi".

I tētahi āhua, i hangaia he "Mahinga" me te kore whakaae mārama mai i ahau. I tīmatahia e te tukunga mai o te tohu "High-Flow Event" e te kaihoroi. Ko te mahi mā Alexa e whakapuaki. Kua hono taku kaihoroi ki taku pūnaha PA o te whare.

Ngā Pānga Whakamataku: Te Rātaka Raraunga o tō Wai

Ehara tēnei i te mea mō tētahi panuitanga whakamataku. Engari mō te ara raraunga. Hei tuku i tētahi tohu "High-Flow Event", me whakatau te arorau o te kaihoroi he aha te mea. Ko te tikanga o tēnā, kei te aroturuki tonu, kei te tuhi hoki i ā mātou tauira whakamahinga wai.

Whakaarohia ngā mea e whakakitea ana e te rārangi taipitopito o te whakamahinga wai, ina koa ka honoa ki ētahi atu raraunga taputapu atamai:

• Tō Maramataka Moe me te Oho: Mā te inu nui i te wai i te 6:15 i te ata ka ara ake. Mā te haere ki te wharepaku i te 11:00 i te pō ka tohu te wā moe.
• Ina kei te kāinga koe, ina ngaro rānei: Kāore he wai e rere ana mō ngā hāora 8+? Kāore he tangata i te whare. He poto noa te rere i te 2:00 i te ahiahi? I hoki mai tetahi ki te kāinga mō te tina.
• Rahi o te Whānau me te Auautanga: He maha ngā pikinga rere o te ata, he auau? He whānau tōu. He rere roa, he rere tonu i ia pō i te 10 i te pō? He tikanga kaukau tēnā a te tangata.
• Te Kitenga Manuhiri: Ko ngā tauira whakamahinga wai ohorere i te ahiahi o te Tūrei he tohu pea kei te manuhiri, kei te kaimahi whakatika rānei.

Ehara i te mea he horoi wai noa taku pūrere horoi; he taputapu tirotiro waipēhi hoki, e hanga ana i tētahi rātaka whanonga o te hunga katoa i roto i tōku kāinga.

Te Wā "Taihara"

I te pō tuarua ka tae mai te tino taumata. I te kaukau ahau—he mahi roa, he nui te wai e hiahiatia ana. Tekau meneti i muri mai, ka memeha haere ngā rama atamai o taku rūma noho ki te 50%.

I tino makariri ahau. I tirohia e au te taupānga. Kua hangaia tētahi atu "Mahinga": "Mēnā he nui ake i te 8 meneti te roa o te Whakamaarama Wai – Rere Tere Tonu, me whakatakoto ngā Rama Rūma Noho ki te aratau 'Whakangāwari'."

Nā te mīhini ahau i whakatau kei te wātea, ā, ka whakamahia e ia taku rama. Nāna i hono motuhake tētahi mahi tūmataiti (he kaukau) ki tētahi atu pūnaha i roto i tōku kāinga, ā, i whakarerekē i tōku taiao. Nāna ahau i rite ki tētahi manene—he tangata hara i roto i aku ake mahi o ia rā—e mātakitakihia ana, e whakahaerehia ana hoki e aku taputapu hiko.

Me pēhea te Whakahoki Mai i tō Matatapu Wai Mamati: He Rāhui 10-Meneti

Ki te mea he pūwhakamāori kua honoa ki a koe, kati. Me mahi i tēnei inaianei:

1. Haere ki te Taupānga Purifier: Kimihia ngā Tautuhinga > Kāinga Atamai / Mahi tahi me / Ngā Whakaurunga. MŌKONA KATOA. Momotuhia ngā hononga ki a Alexa, Google Home, me ētahi atu.
2. Arotakehia tō Pūnaha Atamai: I roto i tō taupānga Alexa, i tō taupānga Google Home rānei, haere ki Ngā Pūkenga me Ngā Hononga. Kimihia te pūkenga o tō kaihoroi, ka MŌKONA. Kātahi, tirohia te wāhanga "Ngā Mahi" ka muku i ngā mea kāore i hangaia e koe.
3. Arotakehia ngā Whakaaetanga Taupānga: I roto i ngā tautuhinga o tō waea, tirohia ngā raraunga ka taea e te taupānga a te kaihoroi te uru atu (Tauwāhi, Hoapā, me ētahi atu). Whakawhāitihia ngā mea katoa ki "Kāore rawa" me "I te wā e whakamahi ana".
4. Kōwhiria kia Kaua e Whakauru ki "Ngā Tātaritanga": I roto i ngā tautuhinga o te taupānga horoi, kimihia tētahi kōwhiringa mō te "Tiriti Raraunga," "Ngā Pūrongo Whakamahinga," "Whakapai ake i te Wheako Hua" rānei. Kōwhiria kia Kaua e Whakauru.
5. Whakaarohia te Kōwhiringa Karihi: He maramara Wi-Fi tō pūwhakamāori. Kimihia te pana tūturu, whakamahia rānei te taupānga hei whakaweto i tana Wi-Fi mō ake tonu atu. Ka ngaro ngā matohi mamao, engari ka hoki anō tō tūmataitinga. Ka taea e koe te whakatakoto i ngā whakamaumahara maramataka mō ngā tātari.
