Brann Stadion Student housing also has its own Facebook group for all residents.
Vacuum cleaners
TU has vacuum cleaners and other cleaning equipment available for everyone to use located in the bathroom at the common room. To borrow equipment, simply fill in the form with your name and how long you are borrowing the equipment.
Ventilation and heat
On the panel on the wall above the fire alarm you can set the desired temperature and fan power in your room. This is not an air conditioner, so you will not be able to get it colder inside than it is outside, but you will be able to get more air. When it comes to the radiators, these are controlled by Sammen and are completely switched off in the summer. When it gets colder outside we turn them on and you will then be able to set the temperature. For the heating in the bathroom to work, the switch inside the bathroom must be turned on. The temperature is controlled by Sammen.
All windows towards the football field can only be opened at the top for safety reasons. The window is not an escape route. To increase the amount of fresh air you adjust the ventilation at the control panel on the wall.
Other information about Brann Stadion Student homes
On match days/days with events there will be a lot of people and activity in the area, as well as music and loud audience, both before, during and after the match. Windows facing the field will be screened with a canvas or banner to prevent visible access in to the student accommodations. Brann can also take such measures during certain football trainings.
Windows must be closed due to possibility of smoke and noise from the match/event. The fire alarm system is sensitive and can be triggered in connection with smoke from pyro effects. Representatives of Brann are given access to lock themselves into rooms where the fire alarm/warning is triggered. Brann has guards stationed around the stadium and is empowered under to intervene in the event of interference and abuse of alarms.
Brann will remove any garbage from spectators, outside the stadium, after the match/event. Residents must not profile other football teams from windows and facades at Brann Stadion.
On match days, SK Brann will occupy half of the common room (the part with the table tennis). The partition is closed so that it does not interfere with other activity in the common room.
