Bhala imanyuwali yendlu ukuze wabelane ngolwazi olumayelana nendawo yakho

"Ngixhuma kanjani ku-wifi? Ikuphi i-thermostat? Asebenza kanjani amarimothi?" Lena ngeminye yemibuzo izivakashi ezingase zibe nayo lapho zihlala endlini yakho. Ungazisiza zithole izimpendulo—futhi usize ekuqinisekiseni ukuthi izinto zikagesi ezisendlini yakho nezinye izici zisetshenziswa kahle—ngethuluzi lemanuwali yendlu ye-Airbnb.

Ithuluzi lemanuwali yendlu likuvumela ukuba unikeze izivakashi ngeziqondizo ezicacile, futhi uzitshele ukuthi zingazitholaphi izinto ezibalulekile, njengamadivayisi okuphepha noma irawutha ye-wifi. Sungula imanuwali yakho kanye, futhi ngeke kudingeke uyibhale kabusha noma uthumele kabusha ama-imeyili kukho konke ukubhukha—konga isikhathi esiningi. Futhi njengoba izivakashi zingangena kuyo ngokuqondile ku-app, zingayihlola noma nini, noma kuphi. Umbungazi u-Neil wase-Mountain View, e-California, uyayithanda indlela lesi sici esimsiza ngayo agweme “imiyalezo ethunyelwa ebusuku, izingcingo ezingapheli, futhi okubi kakhulu: ukuphawula okubi.”

Sebenzisa ithuluzi lemanuwali yendlu ngala macebiso asebenzayo avela kubabungazi abanjengawe.

Enye yezinto zokuqala izivakashi eziyibuzayo uma zifika, ngakho ababungazi abaningi bayibheka phezulu kumanuwali yendlu yabo. “Bonke bafuna ikhodi ye-wifi, ngakho yilelo iqhinga lami lokubenza bavule imanuwali yendlu futhi nginethemba lokuthi bazoyifunda,” kusho u-Marit Anne wase-Troms, e-Norway.

Ukungena kalula kuphasiwedi ye-wifi kusiza ikakhulukazi abasebenzela endlini abangase badinge ukujoyina umhlangano ku-inthanethi, ukuthumela i-imeyili, noma ukuqedela ukuthayipha umbiko ngokushesha ngemva kokufika endaweni yakho.

Imithetho nezimpawu zokupaka zomgwaqo zingadida, ikakhulu uma izivakashi zikhuluma olunye ulimi. Kuwumbono omuhle ukunikeza iziqondiso ezicacile, njengababungazi u-Ben no-Angel base-Wellington, e-New Zealand: “Wamukelekile ukupaka phambi kothango olumhlophe lwamapulangwe kwesokudla sendawo yokungena, eduze kothango.”

Uma wamukela izilwane ezifuywayo noma izingane endaweni yakho, kungaba usizo ukuveza zonke izici ozifakile ukuze uzihlalise, ikakhulu njengoba ukwazi ukwabelana nezivakashi ngemanyuwali yendlu yakho ngaphambi kokuba zifike ukuze zikwazi ukuhlela kusengaphambili. Ungasebenzisa imanyuwali yakho ukuze:

• Chaza ukuthi zikuphi izitsha zokudla namanzi ezilwane ezifuywayo
• Qoka amathawula ezinyawo ezingcolile zabantu nezilwane ezifuywayo
• Yisho noma imaphi amasevisi ezingane, njengombhede wezingane noma isihlalo esiphakeme
• Yisho ukuthi imaphi amagumbi anama-alamu entuthu ne-carbon monoxide

Ngemva kohambo olude, kungaba nzima ukuthola nokusebenzisa izinto zasendlini. Ababungazi u-Joh no-Gian base-San Francisco banikeza lezi zibonelo:

• “Ihitha: Uzothola i-thermostat odongeni, eduze ne-TV. Sicela ukhumbule ukuyivala uma uhamba.
• Ithoyilethi: Siyacela, ungafaki lutho olunye ethoyilethi ngaphandle kwephepha lakhona. Kunomgqomo omncane wakho konke okunye.
• Izinto zasekhishini: Izitsha nezinkomishi zingatholakala emakhabetheni aphezulu kuzo zombili izinhlangothi ze-microwave. Izinkezo zikuyidrowa elikwesobunxele sikahhavini, futhi amapani asekhabetheni. Zizwe ukhululekile ukusebenzisa noma yini kulokhu uma ukudinga ukuze ulungiselele ukudla kwakho okumnandi. Uma usuqedile, ungabeka izitsha ezingcolile emshinini wokugeza izitsha. Uma umshini usugcwele, sizowuvulela.”

Ababungazi abangahlali endlini noma eduze kwayo basikisela nokufaka iziqondiso ngezibi, amanzi, neminye imininingwane ehlukile endaweni:

• “Izibi: Faka izibi emgqonyeni ongu-33 gallon esitezi esiphansi. Sicela ungabeki izibi ngaphandle noma phambi komnyango, lapho izinyoni, ama-raccoon, nezinye izilwane zingafika khona.” —U-Kim, wase-Upson, e-Wisconsin
• “Amanzi Nogesi: Sicela unake inani lamanzi nogesi owusebenzisayo. Amanzi ashisayo ayaphela.” —U-Fred, e-Placencia, e-Belize

Iziqondiso eziningiliziwe zisemqoka, kusho ababungazi u-Joh no-Gian. Nansi indlela abachaza ngayo indlela yokusebenzisa amasevisi abo okustrima:

“Indlela yokuxhuma ku-Netflix, i-Prime Video, namanye amasevisi okustrima:

1. Vula i-TV ekamelweni, ulinde isikhashana. Phakathi nalesi sikhathi, uzobona kuphela iqhwa.
2. Ngemva komzuzu owodwa, cindezela inkinobho enemibalabala, emise okwedayimane.
3. Khetha i-app ofisa ukuxhuma kuyo, bese uchofoza inkinobho eyinhloko. Ku-Netflix, sikumema ukuba usebenzise i-akhawunti Yesivakashi esikusungulele yona.”

Ababungazi abaningi bagcizelela ukubaluleka kokugcina imanuwali yendlu yakho imfushane futhi ingagwegwesi. “Awufuni izivakashi zizizwe sengathi kudingeka zenze izinto eziningi ukuze zigcine umbungazi ejabule,” kusho umbungazi u-Tina wase-Nanaimo, e-Canada. “Thola ibhalansi ekahle phakathi nezidingo zakho nokwenza izivakashi zakho zizizwe zamukelekile endlini yakho.”

Lapho usuyibhalile imanuwali yendlu yakho, ungase ucabangele ukubeka uphawu olumbozwe ngopulasitiki, okulula ukulwesula oluneziqondiso ezicacile zendlela yokungena ku-wifi ndawana thize endaweni yakho. Kungenye yezindlela zokwenza imininingwane itholakale kalula ezivakashini. Kaye nokukhuthaza ukuphawula okuhle, ngaso sonke isikhathi.
