General information
Here you'll find information on things you might want to know when living in IGGY, an urban residential building where you don't need a car to get around.
Your apartment
Bathroom
Clean the shower wall with water and a rubber scraper or with window cleaner and a soft cloth. For stubborn dirt, vinegar-based cleaners are recommended. Be aware that sponges and cleaning pastes with abrasives can scratch glass as well as chrome or brushed metal details and profiles.
Tiles or glazed tiles should be cleaned primarily with water, possibly with a neutral or slightly alkaline detergent - dishwashing liquid or all-purpose cleaner. Stubborn dirt and grime can be removed with mechanical treatment with a scouring sponge or scrubbing brush supplemented with an alkaline detergent - All purpose cleaner - is the preferred method. Particular attention should be paid to the joints, which are most easily soiled due to their porosity. Soft joints should be wiped clean so that dirt does not adhere to the joint material. Lime deposits, which form due to lime-content in the water, are most easily removed with a slightly acidic cleaning agent, e.g. vinegar spirit. The joints are wetted with water before washing. Finish cleaning by rinsing thoroughly with clean water and a soft sponge. Dry with a clean cloth.
Balcony
VIKTIGT: Om du vill ha balkonglÄdor ska de av sÀkerhetsskÀl hÀnga innanför balkongrÀcket, alltsÄ inte fritt över gatan utan över din egen balkong.
The apartments on the ground floor have different designs for their patios facing the street, depending on their height above the ground. This is according to legal requirements and standards. Where there is a greater difference in level between the patio and the street, there are pillars with wires between them to shield and protect against falls. Those patios with a smaller level difference down to the street are screened from the street with planting, but without fences.Â
Childproofing
If you have children and need, for example, a hob cover for the stove, more drawer locks or to childproof the apartment in some other way, please contact the caretaker or property manager.
Smoke detectors
There are smoke detectors in the apartment, but it is your responsibility as a tenant to make sure they have batteries.
To dismantle the smoke detector, turn it and it will come off. Don't pull! And remember to put it back up.
Concrete walls and ceilings
I IGGY finns tvÄ sorters vÀggar: betongvÀggar och lÀttvÀggar. BetongvÀggarna och taket fÄr du inte lov att borra i, mÄla eller tapetsera. LÀttvÀggarna (som t.ex. yttervÀggarna) Àr det tillÄtet att borra och hÀnga upp saker i. MÄnga av betongvÀggarna har en skena högst upp, sÄ att du ska kunna hÀnga upp tavlor, hyllor etc utan att behöva borra. Lampkrokar finns i en mÀngd enligt svensk standard. Vill du ha krokar utöver de som finns sÄ ska du frÄga hyresvÀrden om tillstÄnd och sedan se till att det utförs pÄ fackmannamÀssigt sÀtt.Maintenance
It's good to know that grease stains easily form on concrete walls if furniture is placed against them and you often lean your head against them. These stains cannot be removed. We therefore strongly recommend using a headboard to your bed to protect the walls. Concrete walls are also sensitive to foods containing acid such as fruit juice, vinegar or wine. Wipe off immediately.Concrete walls in the kitchen
The concrete above the kitchen counter is treated to withstand more dirt and not absorb grease.Cleaning
The concrete walls are cleaned with water and soap.Dishwasher
Make sure that the lever on the mixer in the sink is in the right position for the dishwasher to get water. There are only two positions, turn it if the machine does not get water.

You can also read more on Hem & Hyra's website (SWE).
ELFA system
All apartments in Iggy are equipped with ELFA hanging rails. These offer fantastic possibilities to hang almost anything on the walls!
The rails are installed at the top of the concrete walls to make it easy to hang shelves, paintings, etc. in large parts of the apartment. As a rule, we do not add extra rails. If you would like to add additional rails to your apartment, you must notify the property manager and ask for permission, then they must be professionally installed.Â
On The ELFA website you can read more about the ELFA system and find inspiration and retailers.
New standard for electrical sockets for lamps in ceilings
For new builds, a new standard for ceiling sockets called DCL was introduced in 2019. This means that if you have older lamps, you won't be able to use them without changing the plug to a DCL socket.
You can read more about DCL connectors here (SWE).
Changes to the apartment
You need the landlord's written permission to make any changes to the apartment that affect it. Alterations must be carried out in a professional manner and be up to code. Note that you may be liable for compensation if you or someone you have hired to do something in the apartment causes damage to it.
Curtains and blinds
You are responsible for arranging and installing the blinds and curtains. Please note that hangings must be carried out professionally.

BĂ€nkskiva
Det Àr viktigt att du ser till att hÄlla bÀnkskivan torr efter matlagning och disk. Följ dessa skötselanvisningar.
Never cut with sharp knives directly on the worktop. Always use a cutting board. NEVER place hot pots, pans or similar directly on the worktop. Always use heat-insulating trivets.
Concrete walls in the kitchen
The concrete above the kitchen counter is treated to withstand more dirt and not absorb grease.
Lock service mode
Once you have made an appointment with the superintendent for action in your apartment, you can set the locks to your door in service mode if you cannot or do not want to be at home while the action is being carried out. Once you have done this, the superintendent can go in and fix what needs to be fixed.
Here are instructions on how to set your lock to service mode.
Garbage disposal
All apartments in Iggy are equipped with a garbage disposal in the sink. So you don't need to use a composter for food waste when you live in Iggy. The ground food waste is collected in a communal tank which is emptied by VA Syd. You may ONLY dispose of food waste in the waste grinder. The food waste that does not work in the food waste grinder is thrown in the residual waste.
Read the user manual carefully when moving in! Click on the links below to download the product sheet and user manual.
Parquet flooring
Stop the dirt at the front door with suitable door mats. Remember that gravel will wear and damage the floor. Felt feet for your furniture can reduce the risk of scratches, liquids should be wiped up immediately. Daily cleaning normally requires only dry cleaning methods, sweeping or vacuuming. For more thorough cleaning, swab the floor with a well wrung out microfiber mop.
Mop heads are not recommended as it leaves too much water on the wooden floor. If necessary, add a synthetic cleaner without ammonia to the water. Soap is not recommended for lacquered surfaces as it can form a greasy film. For severe stains, especially on matt lacquered floors, Tarkett Bioclean diluted 1:20, with water, is recommended to be sprayed on the stain and rubbed with a microfiber mop.
Drains
As a tenant, you are responsible for cleaning visible drain pipes and traps in your home. It is common for soap and hair to get stuck in drains, and is part of normal maintenance that rests with the tenant to perform.
The common silverfish and the long-spotted silverfish are among the most common indoor insects. Silverfish are completely harmless and normally do no harm. They can still be considered as pests if they are present in large numbers.
How to avoid silverfish:
- Keep bathrooms, pantries and skirting boards as clean and dry as possible.
- Vacuum baseboards, cracks in the floor and other small nooks and crannies regularly.
- Vacuum rather than mop because silverfish like moisture.
- Do not store things on the floor, especially paper, books and dirty laundry.
In case of problems with silverfish:
If you are experiencing major problems with silverfish at home and the above tips don't help, make a maintenance request.
As a landlord, we can then offer traps to place in affected areas, as well as investigate the risk of moisture damage if the problem is focused on one point.
If the problem persists, we can send a company to assess and clean the apartment if necessary.
More about silverfish, from Nomor:
The common silverfish is a wingless and silvery mountain brushtail that can grow up to 12 mm long. It thrives best in warm and humid places such as kitchens and bathrooms. They don't come up from the drains as many people think, but hide in the cracks and crevices of our houses. Silverfish feed on what we leave behind such as soap scum, grease, skin flakes, cellulose and starchy foods like bread and flour, but also paper. As a nymph, the silverfish is up to 2 mm long and white and can live for 2-4 years. Unlike the common silverfish, the long-spined silverfish has three long spines protruding from the end. It lives in the same way as the common silverfish, but prefers to stay in dry areas. Another similar insect is the firebrat, which is similar in appearance to the common silverfish, but prefers to live in warmer environments up to 37 degrees. It is also able to live in dry environments.

Ventilation
All apartments in Iggy are equipped with their own ventilation unit.
You can find the user manual for your ventilation unit here.
The ventilation unit is located above the stove and also serves as the apartment's range hood. No settings can be made by the tenant other than lighting on/off and kitchen fan on/off. The filters in the ventilation unit are changed by the tenant about once a year. More information will be sent out when this becomes necessary.
Walls and lightwalls
You can drill and install things in painted plaster walls, but remember that what you do in the apartment must be done professionally.
The walls of the apartments are painted in grey NCS S 1500-N. The walls of the two-storey apartments under the sloped roofs are painted white NCS S 0500-N.
Bathroom
Clean the shower wall with water and a rubber scraper or with window cleaner and a soft cloth. For stubborn dirt, vinegar-based cleaners are recommended. Be aware that sponges and cleaning pastes with abrasives can scratch glass as well as chrome or brushed metal details and profiles.

The apartments on the ground floor have different designs for their patios facing the street, depending on their height above the ground. This is according to legal requirements and standards. Where there is a greater difference in level between the patio and the street, there are pillars with wires between them to shield and protect against falls. Those patios with a smaller level difference down to the street are screened from the street with planting, but without fences.Â

To dismantle the smoke detector, turn it and it will come off. Don't pull! And remember to put it back up.
Concrete walls and ceilings
In IGGY there are two types of walls: concrete walls and lightweight walls. You are not allowed to drill, paint or wallpaper the concrete walls or ceiling. Lightweight walls (such as the exterior walls) are allowed to be drilled and hung.
Many of the concrete walls have a rail at the top, so you can hang paintings, shelves etc. without having to drill any holes.
Lamp hooks are available in a wide variety according to Swedish standards. If you want to have hooks in addition to the ones available, you should ask the landlord for permission and then make sure that it is done in a professional manner and up to code.
Maintenance
It's good to know that grease stains easily form on concrete walls if furniture is placed against them and you often lean your head against them. These stains cannot be removed. We therefore strongly recommend using a headboard to your bed to protect the walls. Concrete walls are also sensitive to foods containing acid such as fruit juice, vinegar or wine.

About the building
Car parking
IGGY is a pilot project that focuses on mobility in the city by foot, bicycle, public transport and shared resources. In other words, alternatives to having your own car. See more under the "Mobility and shared spaces" tab in the menu.
If you still have your own car and live in Iggy, you will have to find parking on your own - we have no parking spaces belonging to the house. On-street parking is not available for newly built projects, see more info at the City of Malmö's website..
In the parking garage Elina it is also possible to rent a parking space, see their website here.
Parking for the disabled
We offer a parking space for disabled people with a valid permit. You apply for a permit at the City of Malmö's website.
Om du behöver parkering för rörelsehindrad sÄ ska du kontakta oss per mail sÄ ordnar vi tillgÀnglighet till det.
Booking system
Textilstuga (med tvÀtt) bokar du med din tagg vid bokningsskÀrmen med din tagg.
Bastu, gÀstlÀgenhet, lÄnecyklar och promenadtillbehör bokar du via konto hos Bokamera.
Internet
Internet is available in the apartment when you move in. The Internet connection is provided by Bredband2 through a group connection for the whole house. In the Iggy apartments there is a media cabinet in the entrance hall. The media cabinet contains incoming internet. If you want direct internet access, you can connect a network cable here. There are also network sockets in several places in the apartment. These will not work unless you connect them to the incoming internet.
PDF:Â Bredband2 Information pamphlet (SWE)
Cost
Internet upphandlas gemensamt i Iggy. à r 2024 ligger den kostnaden pÄ 115 kr/mÄn.
Maintenance request
Maintenance requests regarding yout internet is made directly to Bredband2, you as a tenant are their customer. When contacting their support you should state:
- Your name and social security number
- Your address
- That you are a customer in the group connection for the property "Passageraren 2/ Iggy"
How to connect a router to get wifi
To get wifi in your apartment, you need to get and connect a router to the incoming internet in the media cabinet.
The media cabinet contains a fibre converter with 4 sockets for network cables.
The fibre converter is where you should connect your router. There are 4 numbered sockets on the underside of the fibre converter. These are the ones that can be used (see picture). Only sockets 1 and 2 should be used when you connect the router. 3 and 4 are not activated.
If you have other wired devices in your apartment that you want to connect with network cables, plug them into the router's sockets via the plinth with the numbered sockets located at the bottom of the media cabinet. These are numbered. Each number corresponds to a socket in the apartment.
Example: you plug a TV into socket 1 in your apartment. Then you also have to connect a cable from socket 1 in the baseboard of the media cabinet to one of your router's sockets. The router is still the only device directly plugged into the fibre converter.
Felsökning
Om din uppkoppling ej fungerar, följ stegen nedan innan du gör en felanmÀlan.
- Dra ut sladden uppe till vÀnster ur fiberkonverteraren och Àven den till din router. VÀnta 1 minut.
- Koppla in strömsladden till fibertkonverteraren, vÀnta 5 minuter.
- Koppla in strömmen till routern, vÀnta 5 minuter.
- Om det fortfarande ej fungerar, upprÀtta en felanmÀlan genom DinhyresvÀrd.
Electricity
Electricity is metered and charged individually. It is notified as a separate item on your rent statement. You do not need to sign an individual contract.
Your hot water usage is measured by the company Minol using wireless meters. Minol then provides us with a basis for the rent bills.
Elen debiteras med hjÀlp av genomsnitt pÄ spotpris. Detta innebÀr jÀmfört med fastpris större skillnader beroende pÄ elnÀtets belastning. Vi debiterar den faktiska kostnaden per kWh för respektive mÄnad, sÄ priset kommer alltsÄ att vara olika pÄ varje faktura.
Electricity consumption includes all electricity used in the apartment, i.e. fridge/freezer, cooker, range hood, dishwasher, washing machine/dryer, lighting, the apartment's ventilation unit (ftx unit) and in the electrical sockets.
To reduce electricity consumption, keep in mind that for example dishwashers have different programmes with different consumption, with eco-programs or equivalent having the lowest energy consumption. The towel dryer can also require lot of electricity, so switch it off when not in use.

Storage
Which storage space is yours is stated on your contract. You are responsible for what is in your storage unit. Do not put things outside your storage unit.You are liable to pay for the removal of any things that are in areas where they should not be. As a tenant, you are responsible for keeping your storage unit locked with your own padlock.
In addition to the mailboxes for ordinary letters there are also larger delivery boxes in the entrance hall. These are not linked to a specific apartment, but are used for parcel deliveries. PostNord and Bring can deliver items here that are too large to fit in the mailbox. If you are shopping online: use the delivery method "Varubrev" for the biggest chance of having your parcel delivered all the way home.
When you receive a parcel in a delivery box, you will find the key to that box in your regular mailbox. You return the key to its delivery box once you have collected your parcel.

The heating in your apartment
Here is some compiled basic information about heating systems, radiators, boilers and thermostats.
How warm should an apartment be?
The Public Health Agency of Sweden recommends that the temperature in an apartment should be between 20 and 23 degrees celsius. Under normal weather conditions, the temperature should not be lower than 18 degrees celsius.
How do you measure the temperature?
For a good estimate, measure one metre into the room - not directly by any windows - and about 60 centimetres above the floor. Along the floor and near windows it is often a little cooler, which is fine.
With large, cold surfaces like windows, heat can radiate from you (who is warm) towards the colder window. Cold air next to the window also sinks down along the floor. The cold floor and the heat radiating towards the window can make you feel cold, even though the air temperature is above 20 degrees.Â
How does the boiler work?
The boiler regulates how hot the water should be that is sent out into the radiator system. It delivers different amounts of heat depending on the outside temperature. When it gets colder outside, it makes sure that warmer water is sent out to the radiators. If there is a rapid change in temperature outside, it may take some time for the system to adjust to deliver the right temperature to the whole house.
How does the radiator and thermostat work?
The radiators in your apartment are connected by pipes to the boiler in the basement. Hot water is pumped around the system, through the radiator and thus heat the apartment.
The thermostat is the small knob on the side of the radiator. With it you can regulate the effect yourself. The thermostat is not just a knob that gives heat directly if you turn it to the maximum. Inside the thermostat is a bellows made of zinc and copper, which gets bigger or smaller depending on the temperature it senses. This means that if your apartment is warm enough, the thermostat will not open and let heat through even if you have turned the thermostat to maximum. Which in turn means that the radiator may be cold, even though the thermostat is on - when it's already warm enough.
If you think it's hot inside and open a window, the thermostat may get cold and tell the radiator to provide more heat. If you open the window, turn down the thermostat. It is better to ventilate briefly but intensively than to ventilate a little and for a long time.
Air must not get into the system, because then the air will get in the way of the water and the radiator will get cold. Therefore, you may sometimes need to vent the element. You can do this yourself, but if you do it incorrectly, water can start to flow, which in the worst case can cause problems. Contact us if you need help with venting your elements.
How should I furnish?
Since the thermostat senses the temperature, it is important that it is not covered or blocked by any furniture. If it is covered with a curtain, for example, it will sense the wrong heat and won't know how to regulate.Â
To help heat distribution, you can review the furnishings in your apartment. The key to a good indoor climate is to give the air maximum opportunity to circulate around the radiators. Here are some common furnishing mistakes:
-  En soffa precis framför elementet hindrar vÀrmecirkulationen. Dra ut den nÄgon decimeter eller stÀll soffan lÀngs en innervÀgg, dÀr det ocksÄ Àr varmare att sitta.
- Har man ett bord vid fönstret sÄ leds den kalla luften frÄn fönstret lÀngs med bordsskivan och ut i rummet, medan elementet bara vÀrmer upp luften under bordet. Dra ut bordet lite sÄ att den uppvÀrmda luften kan stiga upp lÀngs fönstret.
- En tjock gardin framför elementets termostatventil kan stÀnga inne den varma luften och lura termostaten att sÀnka vÀrmen pÄ elementet. TÀck inte för termostaten.
Emergency evacuation and fire safety
The following principles apply to evacuation in case of fire or emergency.
One-storey apartments
Emergency evacuation takes place via the stairwell and in the open (on to the street).
Two-storey apartments on floor 1-2 and 3-4 with entrance from the stairwell
Lower floor: Emergency evacuation takes place via the stairwell and in the open (on to the street)
Upper floor: There is a separate emergency exit on the upper floor. As a tenant, you are responsible for ensuring that this door can be used for evacuation.
Apt A1601 and B1407
Lower floor: Emergency evacuation takes place via the stairwell and in the open (on to the street)
Upper floor: There is a separate emergency exit on the upper floor. As a tenant, you are responsible for ensuring that this door can be used for evacuation.
Two-storey apartments on floor 1-2 with entrance from the courtyard
Lower floor: Emergency evacuation directly into the open
Upper floor: Emergency evacuation is done either internally down to the lower level of the apartment (via the internal staircase) or with the emergency services' ladder equipment via windows to the courtyard.
Two-storey apartments with entrance from exterior corridor
Lower floor: Emergency evacuation is via the exterior corridor, on to the stairwell and then out into the open.
Upper floor: Emergency evacuation is done either internally down to the lower level and further out (via the internal staircase) or with the emergency services' ladder equipment via windows to the courtyard.
Two-storey/penthouse apartments A1601, A1602, A1603 and B1502, B1503, B1504
Lower floor: Emergency evacuation is via the exterior corridor, on to the stairwell and then out into the open.
Upper floor: Access via window to platform and ladder down to lower level exterior corridor and on to stairwell. The key to the window must be either in the window or suspended directly adjacent to the window. You, the tenant, are responsible for ensuring that the window can be evacuated through.
To open the window in evacuation mode, the air vent at the top of the window must be closed.

Container Day - first Tuesday of each month 4-6pm
The first Tuesday of each month from 4-6pm is container day at ReTuren. You are welcome to dispose of furniture, large cardboard boxes and other oversized waste. VA SYD will organise activities focusing on taking care of your stuff and recycling in connection with certain container days.
Recycling corner at ReTuren
You can bring clothes and small household items to the recycling corner. Give away what you no longer want and take something you need! VA SYD will also be organising activities focusing on taking care of your gadgets and recycling in connection with certain container days.
Furniture and other waste
Furniture and other waste must not be placed in common areas of the building or in the yard. You are obliged to dispose of them in an appropriate manner. If you leave items in common areas or in the courtyard, and the landlord has to remove them, you will be charged for the cost of removal.
Rules of conduct
Noise
Remember to be considerate of your neighbours when it comes to making noise and playing loud music. In particular, avoid being loud between 22:00 and 06:00.
Smoking
Iggy is a smoke-free house. This means that smoking is prohibited outside the house, on balconies/outdoor areas and in all public areas such as lifts, laundry room, stairwell, etc.
Grilling
Barbecuing with electric or gas grills is only allowed on the balcony. But remember that gas barbecues are bad for the environment.
Waste disposal
The tenant is responsible for sorting and disposing of household and bulky waste in designated areas. Bulky items, such as furniture, must be handed in to the municipal recycling centre. Garbage in other areas is prohibited and the tenant will be charged for removal.
See separate section above for more information.
Balcony planters
For safety reasons, balcony planters should be placed on the inside of the balcony, not hanging off the railing towards the outside.
Stairwells and entrance halls
The landlord is responsible for the cleanliness of entrances, stairwells and outdoor areas in our yards. Your participation is essential for both well-being and safety.
No objects may be stored in the entrance or in the stairwell. Doing so poses a higher risk of fire, makes evacuation more difficult in the event of a fire and prevents stair cleaning. Access and fire safety always come first.
