sekali buat cantik tint + sunblock curtain, tahan up to 10 year.

if you want to rent out, heat insulation can be a pro

dont forget your unit is under commercial tariff (air api )

NNE-SSW orientation not so bad. Facing the Lagoon-Plaza Ampang City will have a little bit of morning sun and facing the Lake-Jalan Ampang will have the slight sunset (from KLCC direction, you get the angled view of twin towers as offset).

I was there at 4 p.m. and I am very particular about the orientation. That is why I pay a lot of attention when there, not at all noticeable heat even nearing the equinox. Aircond 2hp + 2.5hp well distributed airflow helps. Trust me, go for the double volume curtain, u can wash it once a year but the ambiance is completely different feel.

For those worried abt the heat, only the lake-Jalan Ampang facing will be affected a little bit. And out of those in this facing, the ones with the entrance on the right (kitchen on the left) will be shielded by the aircond compressor column, and for the other half, it is just an offset of a very angled sunlight whereby u get a glimpse of KLCC Twin Towers as compensation.

May be wise to check the specs of the existing window glass with Mah Sing, maybe already sufficient UV protection and heat resistance since it looks like all dark-black with reflector from outside. That is maybe 1 of the reasons why I don't feel as much the heat even during the 4 p.m. sun. Curtains always gives the soft touch to the ambiance that tint can't offer.

Good point on the tariff.

Tint is a pro, but curtain is a must for renting out. Coz night-time, can see inside from another building. Option now is whether -

1. curtains
2. blinds
3. curtain & tints
4. blinds and tints

Curtains can be the feature of the unit and a bigger pro than tint. It will still serve the heat-reducing function.

Just my thinking.

For curtain of that height, use normal manual railing can or not? Or must use motorize railing? Anyone has any experience? Tq in advance for advice.

Getting the right Down light might be a challenge? anybody know whats the height for simplex unit?

Depends on what material of curtain u use. The curtain specialist will advice you coz for double volume, usually will choose light material. Do not stinge, do the daytime curtain also for max effect.

I think no need spend on motorized railing especially if maintenance is a concerned. Just make sure that the rail is well-supported. Means the installation may need to reinforce the ceiling panel. I believe a good developer would have already pre-empt this. Maybe this is the time to test whether Mah Sing has really gone down to the details in this project. If they have really reinforced the ceiling with just a simple additional plank, I think you should give them a pat on the back.

Relating to the heat and power consumption, I think the bigger impact is the sunlight hitting the aircond compressor.

unit still available?

Thanks for the great advice.    

I cannot agree with you more. Both me and my hubby were very skeptical about the place after seeing the unsightly facet and the negative comments in this forum. We collected our duplex keys yesterday and we were pleasantly surprised right from the lobby area to the unit itself to the facilities. I really like the view especially from the swimming pool floor....wide angle view of the lake. Infinite pools are relatively big, yoga room, very nice and professional meeting rooms and board room, rock climbing and sky gym which has a special section for female. I was also surprised by the good quality electrical appliances they gave. For the price we paid (slightly more than RM600psf), we are very satisfied. The next hurdle is looking for tenants. Hope there are people looking for small office and want to stay as well, fit the SOHO concept.

Can you post pic of your unit as well?

I bought a unit in block 3 end of last year.
When I passed by last month, I am skeptical whether they can deliver by this June.

Maybe fellow owners here can share some pics from time to time.

Please also share the contact for curtain and furniture shops where we can go and do bulk buy or something then the cost will be cheaper.

I mean currently left for 20 units only. Thanks

Real number of unit available is likely multiple of 20 unit.

only 20 units for sale in tower 3? seriously ah?
