Designed with environmental sustainability in mind, Haus@Serangon Garden features the following green features for an estimated savings of up to 40% on your utilities bill, based on your individual lifestyle and utility usage pattern:
- Comprehensive passive design to minimise reliance on air-conditioning and electrical lighting
- The layout and orientation of all 97 houses are designed to minimise heat gain and maximise natural ventilation from the sun-path and wind directions. Each house also comes with ample windows, a roof sky-light and open riser staircase to bring in more natural light.
- Photovoltaic (PV) system using solar panels to convert sunlight into electricity
- This is the first landed residential development in Singapore to incorporate a 1 kilowatt-peak PV system for every house to generate solar electricity which will off-set the grid electricity consumed by the refrigerator, leading to direct cost savings on your electricity bills.
- Heat recovery system from air-conditioning units
- Another first for a landed housing estate. Heat generated from the air-conditioners will be used to provide you with hot water in your bathrooms. This is a unique add-on innovation to your air-conditioning system which has the highest energy efficiency “4-ticks” rating.
- LED lighting
- Your staircase has built-in LED lighting as a night light feature. LED lighting has a longer lifespan and lower energy consumption than conventional lighting, for savings on your electricity bills.
- Rainwater harvesting system
- Every home is also equipped with a rainwater harvesting system to reduce the use of potable water and help lower your water bills.
