When moving into the building, you will need to connect your gas & electricity for your apartment. You are free to use a utility provider of your choice, and they should be able to set-up your account using your address. Residents should ensure that they cancel their electricity accounts when they move out of the building to ensure they are no longer billed for use of the apartment.
Hot water supplied to your apartment is via a gas-powered boiler provided through a centralised system servicing all apartments. You will be charged for your actual usage on a quarterly basis. A hot water meter calculates the amount of hot water used per apartment and, therefore, you only pay for the hot water that you use.
Stop valves to turn on/off the hot and cold water in your apartment are generally located in the water meter cupboard in the common hallways.
Gas is supplied to all apartments. It is the resident’s responsibility to set up a gas account with a utilities provider of your choice. Gas usage by each apartment is individually metered. The gas company will read the meters remotely and bill each apartment for gas used. Your gas meter is located in the gas meter cupboard on your level.
Electricity meters are located in the electrical cupboard on your level, for which an access key is required. Should you require information regarding your electrical meter, please contact Building Management and we will attend to this.
If you experience a loss of electricity in your apartment, the circuit breaker in your apartment may have tripped. The switchboard for the circuit breaker is generally located in a cupboard in your apartment, generally either a kitchen, laundry, or linen cupboard. There is also a main circuit breaker next to your electricity meter that may need to be checked should there not be any issues with your apartment switchboard.
Generally, the utility provider will have a record of your meter number and may visit the site to conduct a meter reading. If you need to provide this information, electricity meters are located on the residential levels. Building Management will be able to provide your meter number if required and access to the meter cupboard.
