Prohibited Appliances at University Family Housing 

Residents are reminded that appliances such portable dishwashers and laundry machines are prohibited at University Family Housing. 

There are no exceptions for having, installing and/or using any of these appliances as the building water system cannot safely handle the water load from washers and dishwashing machines. Floods have been caused in the past by prohibited appliances, which not only severely damage the building, but your fellow residents’ personal belongings as well. 

Although it may feel convenient, please understand the impact these appliances can have on your neighbours. If you have one of these appliances, it is imperative that you stop using the machine immediately. If you are using a prohibited appliance in your unit, you are in direct violation of your lease agreement. 

Thank you for your understanding in this matter. Please reach out to us should you have any questions at operationscharles.ufh@utoronto.ca.
