The first centralised cooling system in a Housing Board estate has run into teething problems as the first batch of residents of Tengah town collect the keys to their flats.

Ms Jackline Chang, 29, also said the cooling unit in her five-room flat was not sufficiently cold at first. “After turning it on for a few hours, the house was still not cold,” said the architectural executive. The company therefore needed more time to carry out checks to make sure the cooling system runs smoothly.

Mr Dinesh, the compliance manager, said the issues he faced with the system in his flat have also been resolved after two visits from SP. “There’s also a beam in the middle of the wardrobe space in my master bedroom, which is quite disruptive.” As a result, all four- and five-room, as well as three-generation flats, in Plantation Grange have a beam in the main bedroom.
