Airstream – 2016 Flying Cloud 30FB

Access & Parking

  • The lockbox is mounted directly on the Airstream door. Your code is provided 24 hours before check-in.
  • The key inside unlocks the upper front door lock.
  • Parking for the Airstream is directly in front of the trailer.

Entertainment System

Includes a PS4, Roku (with streaming apps pre-loaded), and a 4-input switch sending sources to multiple TVs.

  • Turn on the TV first.
  • Turn on the PS4 if you plan to use it.
  • Use the Setup or Switch buttons on the switch box to:
    • Select which source goes to which TV.
    • Cycle through inputs until you find the right one.
  • TVs are not numbered, so you may need to switch through options to identify which TV is receiving which source.

HVAC (Two Zones)

  • There are two HVAC units and two thermostat zones.
  • One unit offers both FURN (Gas Furnace) and Heat Pump modes.
  • The trailer is on a 50-amp hookup; using the Heat Pump mode is usually best for heating.
  • Cooling is by heat pump only.
  • “Auto” mode may be used if preferred.
  • Typically one zone is enough to heat/cool the entire trailer.

Hot Water

Two switches for the water heater are located inside the bathroom.

  • Electric switch: should normally stay ON at all times.
  • Gas switch: turn this ON if hot water recovery seems slow and you want to speed it up.
  • The water heater is dual-powered (electric + gas).

House

Access & Parking

  • The entry keypad is in the garage on the door leading into the house.
  • Parking for the house is in front of the garage.

HVAC

  • Heating and cooling are controlled by the Nest thermostat located just inside the garage-entry door.

Dishwasher

  • Model: Whirlpool ADB1400AMS.
  • Standard controls; use as you would any typical dishwasher.

Shared Laundry – Garage

  • Washer: Maytag MVW7232HW.
  • Dryer: WP 7.0 cu ft Gas Dryer (670018).
  • Both operate like standard modern machines.

Pool, Heater & Cover

Pool Cover

  • Keep the pool cover on whenever the pool is not in use.
  • Keep the rain cover on top and plugged in so it can remove rainwater and protect the cover.

Pool Heater & Pump

The pool heater is OFF by default. If you turn it on during your stay, please turn it OFF again before checkout.
  • Equipment is located in front of the corrugated metal shed.
  • The heater is the large black box with yellow buttons on the dial.
  • The filter pump must be running for the heater to work.

Checking Pump Status

  • Open the control box to the left of the heater (filter pump control).
  • If the display says “Running on schedule”, the filter pump is operating.
  • With the pump running, you can turn on the heater using the yellow buttons.
  • Do not set the temperature above 80°F.
  • The heater usually starts blowing hot air within 1–2 minutes. If it does not, check the display for any error messages.

Low-Flow Issues

The most common problem is “not enough flow,” meaning the filter pump is running too slowly.

  • Use speed buttons 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 on the pump control (each is a different RPM).
  • Increase speed until the heater recognizes enough flow and starts.

Cleaning & Service

  • Pool service comes every Thursday.
  • Basic cleaning tools are available for guest use.
  • If the pool becomes very dirty or something seems wrong, contact the host so a technician can be scheduled.

Orchard & Grounds

  • Guests are welcome to pick fruit from the orchard when in season.
  • Please keep harvest to reasonable amounts for your own consumption only.

Outdoor Cameras

  • Outdoor cameras are installed for security and automated alerts when no guests are scheduled.
  • They are not actively monitored during guest stays except for security alerts.

Maintenance & Issues

  • If either the house or Airstream needs attention or additional cleaning, please contact the host.
  • For any problems with the pool, heater, HVAC, water heater, or appliances, notify the host so help can be sent.

Suggested Checkout Steps

  • Turn off the pool heater (if used).
  • Return pool cover and rain cover to their normal positions.
  • Turn off the gas water-heater switch in the Airstream bathroom.
  • Check that HVAC is set to a reasonable temperature or off.
  • Close and lock all doors and windows.
  • Take all personal items with you.
