Well Eric, I guess I am not sure if it really qualifys as the elevator room or not as I beleive that is a story below. Only time anyone has been there is when we installed it. Therefore it has been a long time since I have been there, as the need hasn't happened. Since a trip that requires such work to get too we have avoided going less absolutely needed too. So guess I can't say it is or isn't in the elevator area and guess there has been no complaints maybe it is Ok. In any case I am not sure this problem will even evoke a trip as it is only in the extreme cold and it is only one site of three available, albeit it is as good one.
