Now likely is that with the opening up of the condo, then the landed properties will be appreciate accordingly as complement as a proper township.

Bro...Some people mention about the air quality issue in the earlier post...like some irresponsible light industry owner...

So, I just wanna know do you guys find out anything problem with that after moving in? Are Ken surrounded by factories? I'm not familiar with the surrounding...

Hi all, i had moved in since oct, so far quite satisfy with the area, just the management really lack of experience to manage the place and comes out with some rules that not really helps. however, the security guards really very polite.

By the way, i had the bad smell problem in both of my downstair's and master room's toilets. when using the toilet, i cannot close the door (toilet) for more than 2 mins. i have to switch on the fan, open the toilet door and windows. else the bad smell will come out. wonder if any resident encounter this problem?

yes i have this problem.

it comes and goes i also dunno y.... u managed to solve it?

Weird, i haven't shifted in yet, heck, they are still working on the defects after 1 mth.....but the many times i've been to the house, i don't detect any weird smell from the toilets. Is there a specific time when the smell emits? Like maybe after a heavy downpour or only during daytime etc.?

still not managed to solve, i called ken grouting but they ask me to talk to management.

at the moment, only solved by switching on the fans and window when i use the master bedroom's toilet. really cant stand with the smell. the smell is sort of longkang smell.

for my case, the bad smell came from the floor trap. i will only smell it when switching on the toilet's ventilation fan with toilet's door closed. the fan and light share the same switch, so i have no choice, cannot jus on the light.

i suspect this might due to the air pressure in toilet after closing the door as there is no window in toilet. then when closed the door for some time, the air from floor trap being "absorbed" up.

I guess that makes sense since the only place where air can be drawn from when the door is closed are drains, bottom and top of the door cracks. But I've stayed at the UK where they have the same kind of toilet where there are no windows and just a ventilation fan on top. They don't have drains like we have so the only outlet the air would be drawn from is the bath tub. Still, there isn't any smell as bad as mentioned here hmm.gif

Anyway, maybe can complain to management and see if ken grouting can do something about it. I'm just worried about my toilet now coz after i start my reno, mgt probably won't honor the repairs anymore. My ventilation fan in master room is not even working now so i couldn't test it shakehead.gif

So far the biggest one i see is probably the fertilizer factory or something with the long chimney...other than that, just small workshops and factories along the road

so far does not encounter any chemical smell caused by the factory. the chimney of the nearby factory will release smoke during night, but so far does not sniff any bad smell caused by the smoke they released

the bad smell from toilet came after some time i stayed, i think after 3 weeks or 1 month.

as long as the defect u complaint is not affected/caused by the reno, grouting will still help to fix the problem. they are very helpful, jus i think mayb there is a lot of units and they don have enough workers so make the things slow.

I submitted my defects via email. No reply from them. Even after I called to tell them to look out for my email. Guess that's how it is after they've received all the money. sad.gif

Do u know if they have already begun repairing ur defects? Did they acknowledge the defects u listed and said they can rectify all of them?

I would suggest that you personally go to the mgt office to settle things. From my experience, they are unresponsive to emails. I submitted and paid for my residence card but sent the photos via email because i don't have it with me at the time of submission and the staff said i can email them. I called and sent another follow up email to them to notify me when they finished processing it but after 1 and a half months, no response even after a 2nd follow up mail on my side. So i went to the office to ask them about it, and only then, did they process the card for me and it took them less than 10 minutes to print my photo from the email and gave me the card.

So far they did not inform or update me on the repairs but i went to check on the house from time to time and they did rectify it part by part so i guess they're doing their job. Just a bit slow but understandable coz they only have a few contractors and so many houses to work on. I submitted another add-on defect list to the office today coz just found out 2 of my electric sockets are not working.

Thanks for the advice!
From my communication with them, they seem reluctant to do the repairs. But they did ask me to go ahead and send the list to them, but they keep emphasizing that there's no liability period coz I bought it on 'wat u see is wat u get' basis.
Didn't know I can submit a 2nd defect list. I should go check all my sockets to make sure they are working fine.

A question for those who have moved in or in the process of moving in. Is there a handbook from the management lining out the guidelines of what we can do and cannot do?

If yes, where could I obtain it from? Genesis Nature or the Ken Rimba Gallery?
