If you want to replace your door with a safety door it is important that the new door does not have a deviant color. The color code we use are named either NCS 7020-Y80 or RAL 8016, depending on wich system is used. We are not allowed to change the color profiles, we need to follow the guide lines that were written when the houses were built.
The apartment number can be found on the top corner of your door. This number could be handy remember, as it is this number you use to book the laundry rooms and to make damage reports to HSB.
The community consists of 293 apartments on Sorögatan 29-117.

Due to the risk of broken windows and other unfortunate damages, ball games on the association’s surfaces are not allowed. Instead, such activity is referred to Kvarnbackaskolan’s schoolyard or Kvarnbacka football field.
First rule is to make sure the smoke does not bother your neighbours. Because of fire regulations, the types of grills are restricted to what kind of apartment you have:
- Apartment with balcony: Only electric grills are allowed.
- Apartment with patio: Coal- or gas grill may be used if it stands on some kind of structure (i.e. legs or stand). Just make sure it is set up at least five (5) meters from the building.
When renovation the bathrooms, Fanö will pay the expenses for new ball valves and a new floor drain. Contact the Board for more information, or read our information about bathroom renovations. When you are renovating the bathroom, it is important that this is done by a contractor with so called “wetroom competence” (behörighet för våtrum). After the work is done they will have to give you a document that garanties you there will be no problem with leakage or dampness. If any damage would occur, Fanö will pay for the work of tearing up and drying out, but the resident will themself have to pay for the restoration. This is why it is important to have condominium additional (bostadsrättstillägg) on your insurance.
On the proprties there are several bike sheds available. They are free of charge. However, to get a key you will need to pay a deposit of 500SEK. They payment is done through HSB. When you return the key to the Board you will get your deposit back. To gain access to the bike sheds, please email cykel@fano.se

Twice a year we host a yard cleaning. It is nice if as many residents as possible could come and help. Dusting, litter picking and repaintings are some of the tasks that may need to be done. Participating in the cleaning is also a nice way to get to know your neighbours. After the work is done we serve fika.
The stairs are cleaned by a cleaning service. If you have any input or concerns, please contact the Board.

Each household pays for its consumption, which is invoiced via the same invoice as the monthly fee. Since the invoices are sent out quarterly, there will be a delay, but you pay one month at a time.

Installation of satellite dished must be approved by the Board before the work commences. It is forbidden to place the sattelite dishes outside of the balcony or the patio. It is also not allowed to mount them to the outside walls or to sheds, because of safety concerns. Click here to find the application form. Fill it and leave it in the mailbox at Sorögatan 45.
It is a requirement that all apartments have at least one smoke alarm installed. If you live in a small apartment, we advice you to put the smoke alarm just outside the bedroom. In a larger apartment, a second one can be put just inside of the apartment door. Make sure to change the battery in each smoke alarm at least once every year.
Because fire prevention reasons – no items may be placed in the stairs. Bikes are to be placed in the bike racks or bike sheds. Strollers can be placed in the sheds. To not interfere with the cleaning of the stairs, no door mats or shoes are allowed to placed outside your apartment door. Big flower pots on the floor are not allowed, but smaller ones on the windowsills are allowed as long as they are cared for. If you are renovating or transporting waste we ask you to cover the big mat in the entrance to make sure that the cleaning afterwards runs smoothly.
If you buy a new stove, make sure it is using three-phase electric power (400V/16A) and AC power plugs. The plug looks like a regular grounded power plug, but with more and bigger pins. To be sure, pull your stove out from the wall and check behind it. Maybe the former resident already got a new stove and installed a new socket. Ask the store you buy the stove from to take care of your old one, so you won’t have to transport it to a recycling station. Remember, it is not allowed to throw your old stove away at the electrics shed on the property.
Subleasing is only allowed after permission from the Board. A written request is needed. Get the form, fill and sign, then leave it to the Board in the mailbox on Sorögatan 45.
