Some have also complained of leaks and condensation.

SINGAPORE: The centralised cooling system at Tengah has been a pioneer in terms of energy efficiency, and the take-up rate has been good, with 10,675 contracts for the system signed as of August of this year. However, there have been some teething issues with the new system, with some residents apparently saying it may not be cool enough.

The “forest town” of Tengah will eventually contain 42,000 homes when finished, and residents began collecting their keys to the units at the end of August at two of Tengah’s projects, Plantation Acres and Plantation Grange.New centralised cooling system at Tengah is more energy efficient, but some flat buyers are upset over ‘unsightly’ design

Homeowners have been discussing the problems with the CCS over Telegram groups, CNA reported. One such resident said that the cooling is not the “usual cold”, meaning that it’s not as cool as air-conditioning, although he admitted that it’s better than not having it at all. Others have said, however, that they are satisfied with the amount of coolness the CCS brings. CNA further said that SP Group will be conducting checks on the units using CCS this month to ensure that it is working well.New centralised cooling system at Tengah is more energy efficient, but some flat buyers are upset over ‘unsightly’ design
