Context and Design Intent
- Provide a ventilated utility zone for damp cleaning equipment and selected household services.
- This file is the authoritative requirements record for this area. The initial draft extracts known points from 10 - Requirements/00 - Renovation Discussion Summary.md; later merges must follow 02 - AI Collaboration Rules.md.
Non-Negotiables
- YRD-NN-001 — Store mops, buckets and damp cleaning equipment here rather than in the dry storeroom.
- YRD-NN-002 — Provide ventilated storage for cleaning supplies and allow wet items to dry properly.
- YRD-NN-004 — Wherever located, the robot dock requires permanent power, clean-water supply and wastewater drainage.
- YRD-NN-005 — Provide a dehumidifier location with permanent wastewater drainage.
Decisions Outstanding
- YRD-DO-006 — Determine whether the yard needs AC, mechanical ventilation, or ventilation plus dehumidification.
Detailed requirements and coordination
Provisional Ideas
- YRD-P-003 — Consider locating the robot-vacuum dock here if it can reach the rest of the home conveniently.
Questions for the Interior Designer
- Which cleaning tools and consumables must be stored here?
- Where should wet items drip and dry without obstructing circulation?
- What temperature and humidity outcome is expected?
Whole-Home Coordination
- Refer to 10 - Requirements/01 - Whole-Home Systems Requirements.md for shared electrical, network, plumbing, AC, accessibility and service-access requirements.
