Ko ngā pāpaku kōhatu travertine he kōwhiringa pai hei whakamahi, engari kei ētahi rapanga e pā ana ki te tangata. Ko tētahi aronga ko te mea ka porowhiti te travertine. Arānei, ka taea e ia te huinga i ngā rākau, e hua ai ngā totohu. Ka kitea e koe tētahi ara pai hei pouaka i tēnei mea ko te whakaputa i te kōhatu i muri i tōu whakauru. Me pai te kairāpoi hei tiaki i a ia, kia pai tonu ai tana āhua. Tētahi atu rararu ko te mea ka maroke te travertine ina ua ana. Mēnā kei te hiahia koe ki te whakamahi i tēnei ki te patio, me whai whakaaro ki te aha. Mō ngā wāhi e ua ana — hei tauira, kei te taha o tētahi puna — ka hiahia pea koe ki tētahi mātai kakariki. Ka taea hoki e ngā panonitanga o te kiko hotaka te pa ki te travertine. Ko te atamira hou ka tino pakaru mēnā kāore i te pai te whakauru, ina heke te hau kino. Ka taea e koe te pehi i tēnei me tētahi turuturu pai, me te whakamahi i ngā tikanga whakauru tika. Me parakini hoki te kōhatu i te wā roa. I te wā e haere mai ana, ka hui te paru me te oneone, ka pā ki te mātātoko. Ka taea te parakini mā te wehe iti, me tētahi paraihe māmā, nō reira anō. Paia , kei te whai mātou i āu pūpahi kōhatu travertine e nui ana mō ngā tau e tū ake nei. Nō reira ka tukuna hoki mātou i ngā aratohu hei āwhina i te tiaki. Mā te hermetiki tika i te kōhatu, te whiriwhiri i tētahi mata tika, me te horoi tōmuri, ka taea e koe te whai paparinga kōhatu travertine mōrearea hoki kia mōhio. Ka taea ēnei aratohu mōrearea te aukati i ētahi o ngā raru matua e pā ana ki ngā pūpahi hōu, ā, ka taea e koe te pupuri i āu pūpahi ki te tikanga pai rawa.
Pareta Tarawhiti Ko ngā pareta kōhatu tarawhiti e whakamahia ana i ia wāhi o te whare me te māra. Ko tētahi o ngā tikanga hou kua rongonui kia whakauruhia te tarawhiti ki roto me waho o te whare. Kei te aroha tonu te tangata ki te āhua me te hinengaro o tēnei kōhatu taketake. E hoki mai ana i ngā tekau ma rua ngā tae, tae atu ki te paraihe, kirimea, me te kahurangi māmā, e āwhina ai i te nuinga o ngā kāhua whare. Kei te whakamahi mātai kōhatu mō ngā pareta toa ataahua ki ngā rūma noho me ngā rūma kai. Ka taea te waiho i ngā pareta kia mātātoko mō tētahi āhua morearea, i te wehe atu ki te āhua pīria. Kei te whakaputangia hoki te tarawhiti ki ngā wāhi waho, pērā i ngā pātio me ngā pōpōpi – he whanaketanga tino hira. Ka taea e te tarawhiti, ina whakamahia ki waho, te whakapai aha i te wāhi kia mahana me te manawanui. He mea pai mō te hui tamariki me te whānau, me te horoi wā roa.
Anō, kei te whakawhitinga hoki ngā tāngata i te tarawhine ki ētahi atu matēra. Hei tauira, ko te whakakotahi tarawhine me te rakau, i te metara rānei e kākāriki ai te āhua, ā, āno he āhua taiao tonu anō. Ko te whakawhititanga o ēnei ka tāiranga i te āhua ā-tinana, ka tū ake te tūrua ki te papa. Kei te hanga anō ētahi kaiwhare kāuta wāhi taiao, āhua rānei ki te tarawhine. Ehara i te nui ake i te ataahua, engari e pai ake ai ngā wāhi wāhi taiao. Kei te whakamātau anō ngā kaihoahoa i ngā āhua, i ngā rahi rerekē o ngā kōhatu tarawhine. Kāore rātou i te takotoria i ngā poro rahi anake; kei te tapahia e rātou ngā waehe iti ki ngā tauwāhanga āhuatanga. Kua puta tēnei pararaihi iti, he whakapungawerenga hihiri e kākāriki ana i te āhua o te pāpā.
Me whakamahau ngā pūpahi kōhatu travertine kia manawa tonu te rongonui. Ehara i te mea kotahi anō te travertine, ā, me manaaki tēnei ko ngā taputapu motuhake. Horoi i te kōhatu noa i raro: me te wā tuatahi, me horoi noa i raro. Ka taea e koe te purei me te horoi i ngā paraumu ki tētahi rākau māmā, nō te wai ngāwari rānei. Kaua e whakamahi ngā huinga kiko kaha nā te mea ka taea e kē atu te kōhatu. Engari, me whakaaro koe ki te whakamahi i tētahi horoi māmā pH-kore e pa ana ki ngā mata kōhatu taketake. Whakakotahi anō te horoi me te wai, ka āwhina tēnei hua kia pātaro ai tō travertine, inā hea e hinga ai.
Nō reira, ko te whai waenga hei tiaki i āu pāpaku kōhatu taraweti he totohu. Ko te totohu e āwhina ana i te kōhatu mā te whakaiti i te wehe o ngā wai me te hinu. Ka taea e koe tēnei mā te totohu ki tētahi totohu kōhatu e kitea ana mātua i ngā toa whakapai ake kāinga. I te tikanga, me totohu koe i āu pāpaku kia tīkapa kotahi i te tau. Ki te ara, ka mau tonu te āhua hou me te hou o tāu taraweti! Ki te kitea e koe ētahi wāhi, he mea nui te horoi tūturu. Mō ngā kouru māmā, ka taea e te wai ngohengohe, wai sapo te mahi. Mō ngā kouru uaua ake, ka hiahiatia pea tētahi kaihoroi kōhatu e āhua ana kia kaua ai e pāmu te mata. Me whai i ngā tohutohu o te kaihoroi i te wā katoa hei aukati i tētahi pānga.

Teitenga: Kia arataki tāraitanga ā-ao mō ngā ratonga kōhatu tikangia, whakaahua anō i te aratotanga ātea me te hoahoa kāwai mā ngā matapae e hono ana i te maioha o te taiao, te mahi whanaketia, me te kawenga ki te taiao.
Pakanga: Kia Kaha. Kia Mārama. Kia Māmāria. Kia Pai ake.
